I spent the whole day cutting the boards I got a few days ago. Why? I’m the ambitious young mom of 3 and I want to make my own kitchen units out of real wood. I know it’s something crazy, cause wood doesn’t like water. But. I already made a blueprint 🙂
I’m not aiming for something glamorous or complicated. Something that I can make and enjoy the process of making.
Something that can be made with simple tools cause I don’t have router or pocket screw Jig. And no experience. Short on time… and busy with other things.
And guess what!! I love what I can do with my hands and my mind too. I love the result!
It’s not fast & easy but it IS satisfying & relatively cheap!
