DIY Ikea Cabinet

Steps

Step Number 1:  You will need to clean the cabinet I have used sugar soap. If you don’t have any some water and detergent will do as well.

Step Number 2: Use the sendpaper and lightly send the cabinet. You do not need to apply a lot of pressure just a light send will do. Once you finish sending make sure that all the surfaces are clean and there is no dust. You can do that with a dry cloth.

Step Number 3: Use the primer one coat is enough if you think that you need 2 coats that is fine as well. Let it dry over night.

Step Number 4: Apply Dulux Renovation range paint using a sponge roller. I have applied 2 coats and you have to wait for the paint to be completely dry before you can apply a second coat of paint. Colour name White on White.

Step Number 5: Once everything is dry you can start applying the beads. I have used my dining table for this as you need a flat surface to work with and the good think is  it’s not a messy job at all. The glue is clear and amazingly strong I’m very impressed. In the container you will get 3 different sizes of beads I have used large and medium size. Before you start using them make sure that you separate them into 2 groups as it will be much faster for you to work that way. I would glue first large and then medium beads as close as they can get next to each other. Leave it over night to dry but you will see amazing results with this glue after 30 min.

Step Number 6: Put all the drawers back together. I have used new knobs from Bunnings in gold. I’m using this cabinet in my office, it is perfect for storage and drawers are very deep and long.
