  • Vintage Cellar: Only a few pieces of reclaimed lumber were used for the face pieces on this one. For the remainder, we used antique-stained, ripped-the-long-side standard yellow pine 2 by 4s. We acid stained the concrete floor then sealed it. The left and back walls are against poured concrete foundations. The other two walls are framed with metal studs and were insulated with closed-cell foam before installing the drywall. All four walls are topped off with heavy sanded, cement color paint for a natural finish look. Stones and wine wooden boxes were added mainly to please the eye. This cellar is approximately 10 1/2-feet-deep by 5-feet-wide and can hold just over 1,000 bottles.
