Hemnes pieces to Built In Media Wall

·July 28, 2012·10 Comments

Materials: Hemnes bookshelves, tv unit and glass door cabinet

Description: We were looking for a built in in our basement family room so we chose some pieces from the Hemnes line, spaced them apart and finished the tops, bottoms and spaces in between to make it look like one large unit.

We attached all the pieces to the wall and kept the distance between each the same. A soffit was added above to hide some plumbing and wiring and a large piece of molding was added along the bottom to finish it off. The top of the tv unit was removed and a larger piece was added to account for the wider dimension.

Pine pieces were also added in to the top of the tv unit to match the board and batten pattern in the rest of the room. Some paper on the backs of the cabinets finished off the look.
