Since getting back into pipes and tobacco, my stable has increased as well as my modest cellar.
While looking at different pipe racks, cabinets, shelves etc... I just couldn't get past the prices of some of these. Some of them were a few hundred dollars up to thousands.
While perusing craigslist looking for an alternative I kept seeing the "entertainment centers" or "wall units" going for really cheap.
So, once I decided to got this route, it was simply a matter of finding one that fit in as closely to my existing furniture as possible, all within reason and budget of course.
Patience paid off and I found family getting rid of their 10 1/2 ' wall unit. It was a pretty close match to the rest of my furniture and I got them to come down on their price.
Along the way I picked up some estate sale finds and online sales for artwork and signage.
The new sign over the entrance...
