Now the old kitchen is out and the room has been given quick makeover it was time to sort out some usable storage and furniture
The main woodburner is in here and before the kitchen was ripped out we always had a gap where we could stack up the fire wood and that was that
So i went about making use of the pallets we have had our building materials delivered on and making use of a old ship plank i have had for a good while
The main use was wood storage and book shelf - the storage area was enough for 1 weeks supply of fire wood and needed to go with the charm of the cottage
First off i spent 2 hrs stripping pallets de nailing and planing down to size - then it was on to sanding and cutting to length
A batten was fixed to the wall and to the floor to take the planks and the ship plank was cleaned up and waxed to fit as a shelf
All in all it took 4 hrs to make and cost £0 to make
A quick coat of wax finished it off
As you can see in the pics - this room still needs finishing and at the moment with the other building work we are carrying out this has become the store room untill we can use the new utility
Realy need to take better pics !! - will take a better pic
