This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Elmer’s ProBond Advanced for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.

The official day of summer may not be here yet, but with school now out…it is summer! What does the start of summer signify to you? To me it means less stress and more carefree fun! In our home, carefree means outdoors! My hubby and I worked together to create this DIY Beverage Center from an old door!

  I knew exactly what I wanted to create when asked to team up with Elmer's ProBond Advanced. This product is amazing. It is meant for mixed media use. In my case, I was bonding wood to metal. You can also bond glass to concrete or ceramic to drywall with out that messy residue often left behind by other polyurethane glues. This is not meant for wood to wood applications. Elmer's Wood Glue is used for that purpose.

Visit the Elmer's site to read all about it!

ProBond Advanced

Check out this quick 30 second video to see it in action! This is strong stuff!

 

Screened porch tour from Our Southern Home

 I purchased this old door for I believe $5 over a year ago at a thrift store. It has had a home in this corner as a plate hanger for decoration. Now it is a beverage station for our screened porch!

 As you can see, I had to do quite a bit of scraping and sanding to get a paintable surface.

Materials Used

Elmer’s ProBond

Elmer’s Woods Glue

Old Door

2 scrap boards for shelf in 2 different widths

4 shelf brackets in 2 different sizes

2 outdoor porch spindles

Wood screws

Basic tools

Creamy white outdoor spray paint

Pale blue outdoor paint and primer in one

wine glass rack

*Home improvement center will cut wood for you and spindles

We positioned where we wanted the 2 shelf brackets to go using the larger of the two since this will be the larger serving shelf. We leveled the location for the brackets and attached them  to the door with wood screws using a drill. We really could have ditched the drill and wood screws here! Elmer's ProBond Advanced is so strong that it would have easily supported these shelves! Next, we attached the shelf to the brackets with the Elmer's ProBond. We clamped it to dry and set up.

 Just add the Elmer's ProBond glue, clamp and relax!

Before gluing the upper shelf, I had previously attached a metal wine glass rack to the underside of the upper shelf. I let it set up while we did other things around the house. After it had dried and set up thoroughly, we followed the same procedure for attaching the upper shelf as we did for the lower using the 2 smaller brackets. Then we took off for a few hours to run a few errands.

Elmer's ProBond Advanced dries to a translucent paintable waterproof finish! It is heavy-duty with no foam residue!

The legs were attached with screw counter sunk through the bottom shelf. For added stability with kids around, we did secure it to the brick wall behind with a cement screw in the brick. A hook was attached to the backside of the door and secured to the cement screw with wire.

 I love how I can see no residue from the Elmer's ProBond Advanced! The beverage station is all set up for entertaining. I just need to add sodas and water to the metal ice bucket filled with ice. Notice we attached a bottle opener to the side of the door. A small jar is directly underneath to place caps.

We are actually having friends over for a cookout Saturday night. I can't wait to use this beverage station then! Next week I'll share other resources with you from the station!

    Christy, I absolutely love this. I need a shelf to put a small wireless tv on our back porch. This beverage station door will do the trick. TV on top shelf, small refrigerator in between spindle legs and under counter top is perfect. I have several old doors and I am starting on this tonight

    Thanks for sharing how you made this great beverage station without a lot of sawing and drilling (things I tend to shy away from when doing a DIY). I have seen this Elmer’s glue but have not tried it before but I surely will get some next time I run across it in a store after seeing your project. Congratulations for being featured over a “A Stroll Thru LIfe’s” blog party.

    Where did you get the rack for the wine glasses? They look nice, but likely could make some out of wood. I have the old door and eager to make one.

It sounds like a product that I’d use over and over for projects. Be sure to take pictures of your beverage station in use during your cookout. I know your friends are going to love it.

AD: Call me quirky, but I love a great grocery sto AD: Call me quirky, but I love a great grocery store. I could explore forever. Ashlyn and I enjoy cooking together so shopping for our favorite steak taco night dinner was the perfect opportunity to visit our new @foodlion in the Greenville, SC area. We are no stranger to Food Lion! We shop there when in NC while visiting our family beach cottage. The extra fresh produce and meats section always blows us away. Food Lion prides itself on keeping prices low and passes savings to its customers. Be sure to sign up for an MVP card in-store & online. Swipe to see more + our yummy dinner! Also, check out my stories! Easy, Fresh, affordable, you can count on Food Lion every day!!! https://lnk2.io/wb5NmqG #ShopFoodLion #FoodLion #Fooliongroceryhaul #FoodLionMVP #groceryshopping #FL #budgetmeals #MVPsavings #shoplocal #localgoodness #savingsatfoodlion #steaktacos #tacos #yeahthatgreenville
Good morning! Another gorgeous day before the rain Good morning! Another gorgeous day before the rain and cold creep back in. The weather is a big tease around here! A tip & a question! Please read below...help a girl out! 

🌸 Do yourself a favor, when you go to the grocery store....pick up some fresh flowers. They are inexpensive and instantly brighten your day. Change out the water every couple of days and most will last a week. Cut a little off the stems as well. 

👁 I recently had an eye appointment. My doc wrote a prescription for me to get progressive readers. Folks, She said that I need 2.5s! I’m in a 1.75. It’s such a pain. Here’s my question. I can no longer pluck my eyebrows with my magnifying mirror! 🤣 The 52 struggle is real! What’s a girl to do? Become Bert or go to the salon. I don’t wax because it’s too irritating. @ashlyn_little offered to pluck them! 🤣 Anyone else in the same boat? 

Favorite @lovechicos look! My So Slimming Girlfriend jeans are on sale! Today is also the last day of their first-ever warehouse sale!

Curious? Do you make your bed daily? We do! We usu Curious? Do you make your bed daily? We do! We usually have a last one out rule. I just can’t walk in the bedroom with an unmade bed. My dresser may have a pile of folded laundry for a couple of days, but that bed is made! That Amazon blanket is linked in stories. It’s soooo good! 

This is perhaps my favorite look for our master bedroom! Soft toile, linen and leopard print bedding and blankets are so cozy! http://liketk.it/3953P #liketkit @liketoknow.it #StayHomeWithLTK #LTKstyletip @liketoknow.it.home

I have not been this excited about the weekend sin I have not been this excited about the weekend since last weekend! Ha, ha! Happy Friday! No big plans here, but I’m still trying to dress up for a date night in on the weekend. We’ve been eating a lot in the dining room lately. It’s a cozy space with the twinkle lights that I don’t have the heart 
to take down. It’s like feeling like we are in an actual restaurant opposed to the daily meals at the kitchen table. Just that little extra effort makes a difference. #ad

Loving these separates from @lovechicos This lightweight chevron sweater is perfect for now and spring. The lines are so slimming with the flowy ¾ length sleeve. Guess what! My So Slimming Girlfriend Jeans are on sale now thru February 25th! All full-priced jeans are $59!

Been watching the news before cooking dinner and e Been watching the news before cooking dinner and enjoying a glass of wine. It’s heartbreaking seeing what’s going on in Texas. The people, the animals....I pray that everyone finds warmth, food and water tonight. It makes me look ahead to warmer days and carefree times of summer. This photo was last summer....I’m ready for outdoor weather. 🙏

Never regret anything that made you smile. – Mar Never regret anything that made you smile. – Mark Twain 

I’ve been on a no sugar or anything processed lifestyle change going on 7 weeks except for that weekend cheat meal. Spent an afternoon doing a little shopping and indulging in a vanilla chai latte with my daughter, and it made my day! No regrets on the sweet splurge. #ad

This outfit with pieces from @lovechicos has been on repeat the last couple of weeks! I don’t tend to wear bright colors like this in the winter but let me tell you…. this sweater changed my mind! I am sharing 4 fun looks on the blog today with some of my favorite @lovechicos pieces. #lovechicos

These So Slimming Girlfriend jeans are the only ones I reach for these days. They work with boots, heels, flats and sneakers.
