Building Ikea cabinets

We made a trip to the Atlanta Ikea Saturday 10am to be first in line in the kitchen department to place the cabinet order for my sewing room. Then we did a little more shopping, while we waited to pick the cabinets up, and wouldn't you know!  I found a neat work/cutting table made out of the same oak as my countertop,  at a closeout price.  SO, Art really liked it and 'encouraged' me to buy it.  It seems a bit large, in the boxes, but the top is the same size as my cutting table top.  I'll just have to wait and see what it looks like put together.  Six flat carts later and we're in the truck and headed home, with Art grouching all the way because of the weight and number of boxes....HEY, YOU TOLD ME TO BUY THAT TABLE!

We spent several hours Saturday putting the cabinets together and stacking them across the wall.

Then today, after church we worked some more and it's almost finished.

You wouldn't believe the amount of cardboard you have left over when it's all built!!!  I wish the trash man would take it and recycle it.

One more trip to Ikea to get the correct drawer hardware, install the drawer knobs and handles and the kick plate...are we there yet?

I'm headed to Anaheim CA for the Shaklee convention via RV with my Mom so it will be a while before I get my sewing room put together.  So, stay tuned to this channel.....
