11/14/09 - Day 9 - Cabinets!

Today, I went to the retirement and 60th birthday party for my dear friend, Cynthia, from noon to 3:30.  That means we got a rather late start on the remodel work.



We watched the installation DVD several times to ensure we were doing everything right.  IKEA has picture-based instructions and the DVD did not exactly correspond to what we needed, but we were able to put together most of the cabinets that night.









Putting the legs on. Such a simple concept!



IKEA has a super easy method of leveling the cabinets. Just turn the legs a bit to raise or lower the entire cabinet.



Tiny little brads must be hammered to keep the backing on securely.



Two base cabinets are in place.  The clamps make it easier to screw the cabinets together.

I had planned to do Second Saturday art walk at the Blue Moon Gallery, but after getting dressed for the event, I laid my head down for a few minutes and didn't wake up until 10 PM!
