How To Transform an old Fireplace On a Budget
What happens here
Apply wood filler to all joints and nail holes on the bookshelves. Once dry, sand the entire surface of the bookshelves and base cabinets using an orbital sander. Clean off any dust with a vacuum. Apply wood conditioner before staining. Apply a coat of 'Weathered Oak' wood stain (Minwax) to the bookshelves. Apply a coat of paint primer to the base cabinets, followed by two coats of white paint (Chantilly Lace). Install the custom-cut quartz countertops on top of the base cabinets and hearth. Finally, attach gold door knobs to the base cabinets and decorate the bookshelves with various items to complete the modern fireplace look.
Goal: This final step involves preparing and painting the bookshelves and base cabinets, installing quartz countertops, and decorating the finished fireplace area.
