I bought a lovely house but it was in serious need of updating. Newly single woman, I was nervous to go it alone but I was inspired after shopping at Bunnings and a year later I can’t believe what I have achieved. This is just one project I was able to achieve with very little skill but a big imagination!
Steps
Step 1
After putting together my kaboodle kitchen, I needed something special for the old island bench I decided to keep. I found some panelling at Bunnings
Step 2
I purchased a reciprocating saw and used my kitchen table as my work bench to cut panel to size
Step 3
I then used a construction glue (heavy duty liquid nails or silicone works) to adhere panel to the old laminate island panels, and secured it with clamps, applied pressure and left to dry
Step 4
I found some options at Bunnings to finish off the corners where the panels join
Step 5
Next painting! I am about to go into Bunnings and find the best paint to finish off the job. I love the look
Hello @debsearle
Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community. It's sensational to have you join us, and thanks for sharing your kitchen island upgrade.
What a beautiful transformation, that single element has totally changed the look and feel of not just your island but your kitchen as well. Were there any challenges while you were assembling it? How many sheets did you end up using.
Again, thank you for sharing such a wonderful project.
