OT; ODU Home Bar
A year or two ago, someone on this board posted a picture of their home bar that had a custom ODU mirror. I'm looking for inspiration for my house. So if that was you or you remember where to find that post, hook me up.
Or if you have a great home bar setup, share it. :

I do remember but can't remember who the poster was. It was pretty sweet. Don't know if it was the mirror or like the glass in the cabinets.

Might have been me. Bought a house with a big basement bar. Had two cabinets behind bar with stained glass inserts on the cabinet doors. I pulled them out. Went to a sign shop and told them to cut a frosted plastic sheet the same size as the stained glass inserts. Then pointed to the interlocking "OD" logo (my favorite logo) on the internet and told them to re-create it and cut blue vinyl to paste over the frosted plastic. Each cabinet is back-lit so you see the blue logo on a white background.

Yes. That is exactly what I was thinking of. Found the original post too. Thanks for the help;

I will say that the girl who recreated the OD logo screwed it up, but I didn't want any more delay. Notice that the O is wider than the D.
It drives me nuts every time I look at it but I wanted it done in time for a party and they were dragging their feet.
I didn't have access (out of state) to get a true ODU logo instead. I wanted something that the backlight could shine thru to see the blue. If I was to order a large sticker, I'm wasn't sure the backlight would shine through without seeing it first.

Looks great in the pics. The backlighting really makes it pop
