Bar is coming along NICELY!

Although it SEEMS like it is taking forever for us to finish the bar, Mario is making amazing progress seeing as how he only works on the thing during his lunch hours. But the body of the beast is pretty much complete. We painted it Hubbard Squash, one of the colors we mixed to get the wall color. (More on that here) Here's how it looks right now front and back:




We ordered granite for the top that will look like this:


The actual bar top is going to be supported by these corbels (purchased here) that Mario is going to stain to match the wood on all of our furniture (Somewhere between an oak and a cherry if that's possible!):



And we got a fridge for down there too... not full size, but it seems to hold a sufficient amount of beer and various other beverages and ice cream!
