Turn a Closet into a Bar

Our house is a small 1950's home. This room was originally a third bedroom, but we now use it as a den which makes the house feel so much bigger. Behind these doors was the original bedroom closet. On the right is the transformation where we turn a closet into a bar.
We love how it turned out! More to come, we're still furnishing the room.
Wallpaper is Catalina Palms - Peach design from Wallpaperie.

This looks really great! Did you make the wine cubby or purchase it?

Hi, thanks so much! My husband built it. He did watch a few YouTube videos that helped him and I’m linking the YouTube video that he followed most closely in case it helps. https://youtu.be/ENCczoSIzlo

Lovely. Can you share dimensions total and the make/model/size of the refrigerator?

Thanks! I ordered the fridge on Amazon, although it doesn't look like the seller is currently selling this one, but I'm linking it in case it's helpful to get the full details here: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07YF9K721/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1
If there was anything I would do differently with purchasing a fridge it would have been to buy one that has a handle that sticks out. This one comes with a place to pull open the door on the inside of the door, but its a little inconvenient inside of the cabinet so we glued on a handle that matches the cabinet pulls, but twice now they've fallen off so its not a perfect solution. Hope that helps!
The cabinet itself is 47" wide by 23" deep.

This is beautiful. I want to do this with half a closet and wonder if there were any issues with venting of frig/cooler. I would like to keep other half ion closet for my sewing machine. Thanks
