Lounge Room Upgrade

When I moved into my unit 3 years agoI wanted to get new cupbords that fit the wall at the end of my lounge room. I bought some from Ikea a while back and planned to get them built and installed over the holidays. These plans were put on hold when my mum and dad rushed off to Perth for my Nanna.

Mum and Dad arrived home on Monday afternoon and in discussion they said they would love to help me get the cupboards done before I go back to work next week. So I went home.....took this photo of the cupbaords that I have had up to now.... and then got busy emptying them so that we could move them out to the garage.


Then after lunch Dad came over and we got started on the cabinet for the TV. After starting off with the wrong fittings we got the basic shell completed and then worked on the 2 drawers.


This is the finished cabinet .... but not with the little red thing on the top....that was my levelling device to make sure the cupboard is level....it has 5 adjustable feet on the bottom.
While I wasn't really sure about the white cupboards at the start I think they will look ok when all in together. Tomorrow we are going to work on the other sheving units that will go with it to fill in the wall. I can't wait....
