Coffee/beverage station

Repurposed entertainment stand

You know how you see those tv stands that everyone used to have, at yard sales, thrift stores, and even put out on trash day?  I was given one by a friend and right away knew how I could repurpose it and give it a new life!
Now posing as a coffee/beverage station, it sold right away!

After a light sanding, I gave it a coat of my homemade chalk paint.  Then, I added a graphic from The Graphics Fairy, which I had enlarged and then traced using regular carbon paper.
I filled in all the lettering with black acrylic paint using a script brush, sanded lightly, and waxed several times with Minwax Paste.
I simply stenciled the word "coffee" on burlap, and made a small hem at the top for the tension rod that holds the curtain in place.
I love how the vintage baking pans fit in the shelf to hold all the essentials for that perfect cup of your favorite beverage!
