Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community @manny_123. It's fantastic to have you join us, and many thanks for sharing your project.
Congratulations on your resourceful approach to adding much-needed storage in your home! Building the cabinets yourself using garden sleepers is a novel approach that I haven't seen before, but it looks amazing. You've really achieved a functional and stylish space which I trust is a joy to work within.
Well done on completing the project and enhancing the appearance of your laundry.

Lovely work @manny_123.
Many thanks for sharing, and well done.
Your laundry upgrade has attracted more than 2000 views and we are interested in turning your project into a Featured Project article.
Do you have any more pictures you could share?
It would also be great if you could share any other tips or lessons learned during your project that would assist other laundry renovators.
Many thanks,
