There on!!!
Now remember what we started with! eew.
We had one of those weekends where everything happened and the knobs didn't get put on. So, this morning I took it upon myself to get them on!!
Armed with Mics drill, I went to work.
First of all I stuck a piece of masking tape over the spot where I wanted to drill the hole. If you don't do this step your lovely new paint job and your doors will splinter and crack...not pretty. I measured 4cm in from top and sides to mark the spot.
See how neat it is when you use the masking tape?
Much better. Just remember to hold the drill straight while you do this or you will have crooked door knobs! A tip from my Dad is to tape a small spirit level to the top of your drill and keep an eye on the little bubble to make sure you are on target =0)
First one on, 10 to go!!You can't imagine how happy I was this morning while Mason and I were baking to be able to open the door properly without doing it with my feet!

It is only such a small change but it makes such a difference and I am so happy to be able to tick that box off the list.
The center island bin pull handles that I showed you will have to wait for now as the island needs completely re built when my Dad gets here as all of the runners collapsed and I have decided I just want shelves there and two top drawers and a lovely linen curtain over the shelves...you getting all this Dad? ;0)
So, I hope if you have a drilling job you thought you needed to wait for your Husband, Dad etc to do, you will have a go yourself...it is so rewarding - I promise!
Have a great day, I am going to open some doors =0)
