Although I am not a drinker one of my hobby’s is cooking and entertaining guests in my home “This Old Crack House”.
I have been blessed to be able to be able to have three kitchens in my home.
I host events and serve wine to my guests fairly frequently. I needed a simple easily accessible wine cabinet that wouldn’t take up a lot of space in my main kitchen. This cabinet also had to blend with my kitchen I had designed built and installed.
I found a plan for a wine cabinet and modified it incorporating stained glass and other features I desired.
This was a very simple and inexpensive project, and has served my needs until I am able to construct my own wine cellar in the near future.
The wine cabinet is 41 inches tall – 23 inches wide- and 16 inches deep.
It holds 19 bottles of wine and 20 wine glasses. The top serves as a host for cheese cutting presentations ,along with various wine and other beverage tools.

You have good taste, and 3 kitchens. It goes hand in hand. Again excellent craftsmanship. If I count my daughter’s easy bake oven and a extra microwave, then I too have three kitchens. I look forward to your next one.

Mr Trim,
Thanks, lol
How about you making a cabinet to hold the keg?
I was at a event and noticed a built in bar that had built a very nice cabinet around a keg.

Napaman,
Thanks,
Really this project is not hard to build at all.
It is no more than a long box with a door and top and some simple glass and wine wood holders.
I have no doubt that you could build this.
I found a simple plan some where ( I think it was in a popular woodworking mag.) and modified it to fit my needs and tastes.
Really you can change what ever you want to fit your needs or tastes.
I wanted to incorporate such things into my project as the stained glass on the sides and front.
Be creative have fun with the project.
Let me know if I can be of any help.
Good luck!

Well done Dusty. One day I will finish the bar I am making. You are certainly one step ahead of me on this one.

Grumpy,
Thanks,
Oh well Grumpy, we all have unfinished projects.
I have become a big believer in enjoying the journey we take threw life, because the destination is often uneventful or a disappointment.
