I had almost too many ideas for this entertainment center (space ship), but I hope that some of the things I covered inspire you! Thanks for watching!!
I am so impressed with this. I was so confused when you mentioned the space ship design. But at the end I could really see the resemblance. Looks great
I love this! It’s really fun. I recognized this cabinet as the same design Marissa (Miss Flips) did a few weeks ago. So much creativity with both of you. The end result on both these cabinets was totally different and totally fabulous! I love the monochromatic look of this one with all the different sheens, patterns and textures. Excellent use of lights, too!🌸
Thank you Deborah! Its funny because I saw her Instagram posts and asked if it was the same one I was watching on FB Marketplace. It was and she told me to get it, and here we are! So happy to have worked on this and been able to try some different ideas out.
"At some point I decided this was going to be a spaceship" , "The carcass of the ship" hahahahah you crack me up! In all seriousness, this turned out so cool! I love that you added some height with legs. You are so creative!
Your retro atomic space age perspective came to life before our eyes thank you for taking us along the ride. I love how you mentioned the cabinet done by missflips as well its amazing how different the same piece can turn out depending on which direction you take it. I love them both! Emily watching your creativity run wild truly made my heart happy 😊.
I want more of these cabinets to do something totally different with it. I really think small cabinets might be my second favorite thing to work on. Missflips cabinet was amazing! Loved her glass and how she used the lines. Thank you for encouraging me to be my weird self! ❤️
This is so cool! Definitely not your average furniture flip...yours or anyone's. I think a child would love this in their room. My grandchildren love things with lighting features. Great out-of-the-box idea! 🙂👍
I showed my kids the lights and I wish I had recorded their reaction. Such awww for glowing lights! I have a feeling they will ask me at some point install some in their rooms. Thank you Holly!
This is so great! As soon as you started using the tape, I thought, "Oh, just like MissFlips!", but I had no idea until the end that she was the original inspiration for this piece. The LED lights were an awesome contribution, and I loved the window film.
Squee!!! I love it!!! My indoor plants have to hang high in areas with no launching pads, due to my 4-legged family members. My husband saw this, and it doubled his determination on planning to add the old school stereo stuff to our system... 🤣🤣🤣
I actually just recently got hanging plant baskets for this reason! Going to be a complicated wiring situation with the old and new stuff! Maybe it will all work out though! ❤️
I love the idea of the tone on tone designs, now I want to experiment with high gloss stencils over matt in the same color, I love the subtlety of the technique!
I have been contempating getting a few of the older oak veneer cabinets that were used for TVs and using them for organization in the Garage. I almost wonder if the square ones could be cut down or taken apart and remade into something else. 🤔
I am sure they are out there. Now that I have said I want to do another one in a totally different way though I probably won't find one. That's how this works! lol Thank you Chanda!
I really like the glass stripes as well! Just trying to showcase some other ideas. Highly recommend checking out what MissFlips did with the glass stripes. Thanks Emma ❤️
Great idea! My cats do the same thing, 🙄 I think that it is like Princess Bride and they are building a resistance to the poison by ingesting a small amount each day. Love the cabinet!
@@ReconstructingEmily Sorry, my dogs were all up on me when I was trying to make a comment!!🐶🐶🐶I love the black on black on black!!!! And the glass pattern is so cool!!! 🌺🌻🌺
OVEN CLEANER? I’m seeing all these videos where people are using oven cleaner to strip wood furniture. It looks so simple, wondering if you’ve tried it and what your thoughts are?
Big ole nope. Not meant for wood or porous surfaces. Doesn't work that well. Strong fumes. May as well just use an actual stripping spray or paste. Know Can Do has a video on Oven Cleaner that I recommend taking a look at.
It was the Blue Ridge Heavy Duty Box cutter. I believe I got this from Target a while ago late at night because I couldn't find my other. Sharp heavy duty blade will cut like butter. I did add one to the list that I would buy off Amazon if I needed a replacement.

Poems are back! Also, ReconstructingElon lol. Now it's Storage SpaceX :) Such a creative a fun transformation, thank you for sharing it.
Hahaha Storage Space X. 🤣 Love this 😀
I had this exact stereo cabinet! My parents bought it for me in 1984. I used it for years!
I have had 2 in my house growing up and as an adult. Really useful piece of furniture!
I love your silly poems, your careful instruction, and watching ugly furniture turn into gorgeous! Good job!
Man those lights were satisfying to watch at the end!
I turned them on tonight and was watching them. I think this may become a thing. I've seen those accent walls with hidden LED strips... goals!
Ohhhh! That would be awesome. And I’d probably get nothing done if I had them in a wall.
I like the subtle variations of black and the window film.
Thanks Jay!
I'm glad you used performance top coat cause that thing is about to shot into space or time travel!! 😍😍
Haha! Its the legs. Remind me of a 🛸 UFO!
Ooooh yes!!! I love this!!! Great job! I love the design you did on the sides 🙌
I had some... good inspiration. Totally mild compared to what you do but very liberating in just sort of 'doing'. ❤️
I am so impressed with this. I was so confused when you mentioned the space ship design. But at the end I could really see the resemblance. Looks great
Foreshadowing!! I didn't see it until I put the legs on and realized it resembled a space ship. 😀
@@ReconstructingEmily Oh yes! Haha that’s usually how it goes with creative endeavors isn’t it? 😂
3,2,1 blast off!!! The space ship came out awesome Emily. Some really cool touches & even a hint of rhyming. Hoping all is well, Dirty Jersey out!!
Thank you Mike G. 😊
That’s an awesome piece!! I’d love it as a bar cabinet and I don’t even drink 🤣
Very cool transformation ❤️
LOL I don't drink either, but I collect cool glass wear that is meant for drinking. Thank you! 😊
All I can say is ....WOW 😲
So totally love this idea!!
Thank you Roxann! 😊
Cooooool cabinet. That could be used for all sorts of things! Love your creativeness!

In all seriousness, this turned out so cool! I love that you added some height with legs. You are so creative!
The legs were a point of stress. I like the wheels but putting big wheels on it made me think it was a monster truck. Thank you Holly!!
Very modern. Great coffee bar too
That is a great idea! Thank you for sharing 🙂
Emily, you are one of a kind. Marvelous.
Thank you so much Linda ❤️
Bloody awesome, I love it 😊
Would make a great display case for a Star Wars collection or similar 👍
Yess! Could hang a Deathstar from the inside top! That's not a moon...

I love your sense of humor as u work.
Thank you Libby 😊
A good reminder to think about things in new ways. Art!!
Absolutely! Thank you Joseph!

She's a freaking boss with tape. Her last project (the night stands) were so awesome! Thank you!!
Wow! I didn't see that coming! Dad's 80s disc changer cabinet has left the building. This is pretty cool and you did a super cool job 😎...love it!
Lol thank you Deborah! 😊
This cabinet was well thought out and I loved the special touches, especially the glass.
Thank you Toddy Lu! 💜
Fun makeover!
Thank you Paul & Carla!!

This spoke to my little sci-fi geek heart! Awesome transformation!
Thank you Julia 😊
Fabulous end result. Love it. Especially the doors.
Thank you Gail!! 😊
I am so impressed with how you just eyeballed your stripes.
This piece took us on an unusual hike,
I liked it so much
I booped the like! 👽🛸
Yes it did! Thank you Linda :)
Dude thank you so much for the shout out!! ❤️❤️❤️😩
Most welcome! I still love your glass design better ❤️
This is so beautiful
Thank you Kathleen!!
How fun! I'm getting some juke box vibes from this one.
Ooo yes! Juke box for sure with the lights. Need to place a record player in there!
I love the idea of the tone on tone designs, now I want to experiment with high gloss stencils over matt in the same color, I love the subtlety of the technique!
Thank you Maureen! A high gloss over matte would be cool!
That came out great! It is a great space ship for sure!
Thank you! 🌌
Very creative idea, i have some of that 1980 oak cabinets to repurpose. This gets me thinking, thanks for sharing.
I have been contempating getting a few of the older oak veneer cabinets that were used for TVs and using them for organization in the Garage. I almost wonder if the square ones could be cut down or taken apart and remade into something else. 🤔
Well done. I tossed my old 1980’s cabinet like this a few years ago and now I’m kicking myself.
I am sure they are out there. Now that I have said I want to do another one in a totally different way though I probably won't find one. That's how this works! lol Thank you Chanda!
stunning! love what you did with this 😊
Thank you! 😊
Very, very nice. Now I wish to have kept mine.
Great artistic choice!
Thank you!
I love this! My mom could use a cabinet like this .. Same cat problem. And so glad to see your videos back again!
Thank you Alicia!
Love it! Was a bit sad to see the stripes on the glass go, I liked them, but the end result was even better. Cool design!
I really like the glass stripes as well! Just trying to showcase some other ideas. Highly recommend checking out what MissFlips did with the glass stripes. Thanks Emma ❤️
Super creative! Wonderful job Emily
Thank you Karen!!
What a cool makeover. Super creative 👽
Thank you 😊
Absolutely stellar!👍🏻❤️
Thank you so much Sally 😀 I appreciate the word choice!!
I love it!
Thank you! Hope you're having an excellent weekend!
Great idea! My cats do the same thing, 🙄 I think that it is like Princess Bride and they are building a resistance to the poison by ingesting a small amount each day. Love the cabinet!
Hah! Yes! I am so paranoid about even the tiniest little nibble.
Genius!
Very Cool!!
Thank you Patti!
very creative design.
Thank you Kimberly! 😊
Pretty cool
Thank you Beverly!!
I would buy that period.
❤️
Great job! 😀👍🏻
Thank you Lynzey!
Super cool!!! 🌻💫🌻
Thank you Cathy!
@@ReconstructingEmily Sorry, my dogs were all up on me when I was trying to make a comment!!🐶🐶🐶I love the black on black on black!!!! And the glass pattern is so cool!!! 🌺🌻🌺
@@cathyjackson5959 Thank you Cathy! 😊 They just want your attention or they saw the cat lol
To remove stubborn things, like etched water stains, we use brillo or steel wool. Make sure it's wet.
Thanks for thr tip!
You and diydanie could space travel together.
I would love that!! ❤️

Penmanship is very important to Aliens. But I know they approve of that spaceship!
Hopefully I don't start some intergalactic space crisis from my stenciling 😬 Thank you Charlotte 😊
Can you provide a link for the utility knife you used on the black contact paper? Thanks!

Madmen bar?
Ooo Yes!
