I’ve already written this post from my perspective.

It’s so handy to have the outlet that Chris built right into the countertop and the light up above!.If you want to build something like this on a blank wall in your home, it’s actually pretty simple!.

You just need to pick up some basic in-stock upper cabinets from your local hardware store (ours were unfinished oak and I just painted them), build a basic frame on the floor from 2×4’s to raise your cabinets off the floor a litter, and then attach them to the wall and each other!We had a space that would fit 9 cabinets almost perfectly, so we used 8 and left that little nook in the middle for the counter.We made our own faux butcher block counter, just like we did on.

the long counter in the laundry room.and I just love the warmth it brings to this back hall.

We trimmed the whole thing out in a few places, but mostly we just needed lots and lots of paint to make the whole thing come together beautifully!.

It’s actually a pretty simple project that has a really big payoff, and it’s really really easy when you compare it to some of.One day I’ll be just like you, Experienced Gardener Lady.

And this is how I’m getting there.. Don’t worry.I did pull that weed after I saw it in this photo.. People have been checking up on our garden.

They drive by and report back to Chris’ parents.They’ve been saying nice things.
