February DIY - Finished
Saturday, February 22, 2020
After what seems like endless painting, undercoats and top coats of all the MDF and then walls and ceilings, we eventually finished. The new unit looks great, we've organised someone to refit the carpet next week and there's still some skirting boards to paint at some point but otherwise for now we're finished!

February DIY Day 5
Tuesday, February 18, 2020
Today we made a start on the shelves inside the new cupboards. The shelf supports we bought from Screwfix are the same sort that you use inside kitchen cabinets and are designed to be adjustable. I liked the idea of being able to set the shelves at different heights so in order to drill the holes inside the cupboard we made another jig out of some spare wood. Once complete we set about drilling the shelf holes.
This worked really well, and in no time we had holes drilled in all four cupboards.
Now it was time to start painting. We stopped by Screwfix again to buy undercoat paint for all of the MDF, then took the doors off the units and got started. Dani made a start with the white emulsion, painting the ceiling, whilst I made a start undercoating the doors. The doors took two coats of undercoat on each side and with 8 doors to paint for this unit alone, it was looking like a big job.
