On Saturday Dad, Bill and I began to assemble the wall and base cabinets for the kitchen.
First we had to sort the pile of boxes. What was a cabinet? What was a door? What was a drawer? Soon we would have it all figured out....we think.
This a snapshot of the pile before we got started.
Another view of the parts and pieces!
Thank goodness, I speak swedish and was able to read the IKEA instructions and direct Dad and Bill on how to put it all together! Off they go!
And the pile of cabinets starts to grow!
We are in the rhythm now! Open a box, spread it out, pop in the hardware (this is where I am helpful), then lock it together.
The pile is getting bigger!
We took a lunch and tea break and still kept motoring forward!
This was the pile of cabinets at the end of the day. The next step will be to mount them in the kitchen space. After that the doors, cornice, toe kicks and hardware will go on.
Here is a sample of the wood color and cabinet style.
And a sample of the counter top we are aiming for!
Stay tuned for more updates!
