CABANA STAND

My Grandparents had a stand similar to this in the 60's that they put the phone on top and stored their record albums underneath, I loved to look at those old albums The Carter Sisters, Roy Clark,Johnny Cash and the likes. My Grandpa also bought albums that had been discounted, you know the ones that they would drill a little hole at the top corner to indicate that it was discounted,and they were trying to get rid of...albums like the barbershop quartet that no one ever heard of or recordings of drag racing or Calypso music by artist no one has heard of but they always had some colorful album covers. The Cabana Stripes are something I saw someone else doing on their furniture blog and I liked it and wanted to do a piece like that, also wanted to try my frog tape out on the stripes it works great nice sharp stripes. I filled the channels that the old doors slid in with good old Bondo and sanded it flat.
