My first attempt at IKEA furniture.  I purchased 2 of their Brimnes cabinets and I love them!!  They were actually not hard to put together.  I just opened that big intimidating bag of bits and pieces and laid them all out.  The pictures were easy to follow and I’m really impressed.  I see more of these cabinets in my future . . .

I decided to change the handles on the cabinets.  They are 3 3/4″ center to center and I found this handles at Lowes.  They are perfect!!  I will say the handles that come with the cabinets are very good – they’re actually made of wood, not plastic.  I just wanted to amp them up a tad 😉

Here’s the link for the cabinets – they also come in black and gray:  https://www.ikea.com/us/en/p/brimnes-cabinet-with-doors-black-80300660/

So I had my first studio session this last weekend.  The Studio isn’t finished – but it is workable.  It went great!  And I can’t wait to show you pictures of Baby Vince 😉

Still need to trim out all the widows, finish the ceiling insulation, finish the ceiling with shiplap and then the floor!  I’m close!!  And we’re hoping for a warming trend!

I have power!!! One of the most exciting days of my “Studio” life! LOL – no more extension cord – no more cold air creeping in through the door because the extension cord is in the way!  I absolutely love this wood chandelier!  It’s has six lights and I put it on a dimmer switch.  I did have to put it together which was a bit intimidating, but honestly it went together very easily. I found it on Amazon – here is the link:  https://www.amazon.com/Pendant-6-Light-Weathered-Chandelier-Adjustable/dp/B07QMDMDBS/ref=sr_1_10?dchild=1&keywords=wood+chandelier&qid=1614561261&sr=8-10
