Upon unboxing, I was immediately upset at how the rails were very noticeably bent. But I kept going, all tools needed to assemble were included ruclips.net/user/postUgkxqtX4Dxs6aecAZEuz6GY5-d81YecKCshn and I had it set up in about 30 minutes. Honestly I love this thing, make sure to read the measurements and measure your space so you know if it'll work for you. I bought this to put inside my closet, underneath where I hang my clothes and it is absolutely perfect! It is VERY sturdy and all drawers glide easily and mine are stuffed, and they are still flush when closed.
Nice work mom, your daughter is a lucky little lady.
Girl you need your own TV SHOW👏
Slick build!! Another pro tip - put a 4" stretcher across the back of the cabinet at the top, flush with the back edge. It will help it remain square and provides a great place to screw through for attaching to the wall behind. You can be sure to find a stud as you can go through it anywhere along its length. Much stronger than a pocket hole.
Great job as usual, and congrats on the newest member of the family who’s coming soon!
I don't know why but I love this channel...something in the simplicity...
Your make-over of your daughter's bedroom is outstanding! She is fortunate to have such a talented mom!
I am very lucky to have my mom yes
wow! excellent skills, I have built cabinets in the past and you have shown me some new methods and ideas.
Wow! What a great transformation of the entire room! Nice job!
Melissa that is stunning! So impressed that you tackled building a drawer stack!
Thank you! I love how it turned out!
In troubling times like we are living through now, your channel and the great content you make for us viewers is like therapy, much needed therapy! thank you Woods!
Beautiful, you do such precise work. Love watching.
It all looks very nice and a great use of the space available.
Christ, your drawer unit is ten times, twenty times better than Ikea quality. Love the problem solving with the rail Melissa. Kudos again for showing 'a mistake we'd all make'. Great video as usual. You slow down some as the pregnancy goes on now. No more climbing on precarious surfaces. Oh, a tip - spacing blocks tend to be easier in the long run than trying to get everything level.
Covering the paneling with Sheetrock is such a good idea, thank you!
"Don't ask me how I know!"
We've been there 🤣
Melissa, you Rock!! as always , another fabulous job! your tutorials are the are the best! 👌
Great job on the dresser and drawes. On the edge banding, you don't need the foil between the iron and the banding. Set your iron to medium heat and just keep it moving back and forth as you iron down the length.
My old iron has rust on it so that would transfer onto the edge banding if I wasn't using the foil haha
Clean your iron up with some 400 grit sand paper or some steel wool.
Absolutely amazing definitely enjoy your videos
wow...you nailed this project...very nice
Nice job. Seeing you struggle there with the shelf at the end reminded me of myself before I discovered a product by fast cap called 3rd hand. They come 2 in a set and they extend from 57 to 144 inches. They also make little hand which extend from 17.5 to 26 or so inches. They are super valuable when you need an extra hand. #notsponsored 😀
You are so talented! Another great video. Thanks!
Great job! As for needing to take down the rod and supports to get the shelf to fit, I've been there more than once. 😎 I remodeled the inside of 3 closets in our 1920 house, adding shelves and divided spaces for rods at two levels (no drawers) and quickly found that building the shelves outside of the closet and inserting them as a unit was a bad idea as there was no way to angle them into position through the doors! I ended up having to take them apart to get them into the closets and then perform some painful contortions to reassemble them in place!
Thnx for the great tips. Nice to learn new things
Such a great job!!
Awesome transformation
Wow, awesome work! Great job!
Girl, Melissa you are awesome love your videos
JA from Cinnamon
Absolutely phenomenal! When I get back home, I'm following your work-bench plans to build my own. Then I'll try closets. LOVE your channel!
Thank you so much!
You really need to buy some corner clamps, I’ve used them many times. 👍🏻🇬🇧
Indeed great job !!!!!!!
Great job. Putting a back on the box for the drawers will stiffen that box up and take the sway out of it
That came out really nice 👍
Beautiful carpenter with beautiful handwork. Subscribed !✌️
Incredible kudos to you ...💥Fantastic job ,very informative! 💥👏 🙌 👍 👌
You do awesome work!
Gosh! I want this room. lol! So pretty! :)
Really fantastic job making that closet into something useful! I'm glad to see you found the wonders of edgebanding! So useful! If you don't mind me sharing, I have a tip on dealing with those mitered corners. You can add a little bit of glue to the gaps, then use the round part of a screw driver (or just a round rod) to kind of squish those corners down into each other. Just start flat on the board, sliding back and forth and lift the angle so it pushes down the edges, just like you mentioned doing with the sander. Using a piece of metal is especially useful with plywood, so you don't run into the issue of sanding through the veneer. You can also pack in some sawdust if any of the gaps don't quite close up. It mixes with the glue and turns into a homemade wood putty and makes a seamless joint. I have used an offcut to make the sawdust, or veneer, since it's the same wood. Oh and that reading knook, truly inspired! I used to love sitting in the closet to read! Love it!
Thanks for the advice! I have done that before but I just forgot about that trick haha. Should've done it slower with the screwdriver instead of trying to be quick with my sander.
Yes the saw dust mixed with glue works very well.
You did a fabulous job & probably learned a ton in the process.
Definitely learned a lot! It was so fun
That looks awesome congratulations I hope you do well on making the nursery which I know you will we have a five month old so I can’t wait to finishing up my garage so I can work on her room
Nice build!
Uma nova aparência! O quarto ficou absolutamente muito agradável. Parabéns
Great job kid!
Try gently rolling the mitered corners next time with a small pipe, or the cylinder chrome shaft of a typical bit-switching screw driver. Mushes the corner pretty well. Nice build!
Great vid
Great role model
Oh my gosh mama I’m so proud of you seriously it looks amazing and more power to you being pregnant and being willing and just getting in there and doing it it doesn’t just look remodeled it looks amazing I’m seriously so excited for you
Use a higher tooth count blade for your saw prevents splinters also all purpose mud has glue in it best for taping hard to sand use green lid for first coat then top with blue lid will save you a ton of time and aggravation and give u a better finish
Looks good
Inspiring! You've earned a new subscriber.
I have that same office chair!! It's a Walmart chair! 😁
Lady you make awesome workpiece 👍
You are so amazing!!
congrats!
PRO TIP!! to keep plywood from splintering make two passes. First pass, set the blade to just kiss the wood, you don't want to cut more than the first ply. Second pass cut all the way through.
That IS a good tip!
@@WelcometotheWoodsBlog That tip works well, you can also lay a strip of masking tape the whole width of the cut and that will prevent it as well.
Very creative and excellent use of space. Question? How did you create that cool effect on the ceiling. My daughter would love that.
I installed this peel and stick wallpaper: amzn.to/3sQLGw9
I am not sure you do enough woodworking to make use of this, but Harbor Freight bar clamps are much lighter than the heavy clamp you are using. But you need to use the Paul Sellers improvement to them. Ask another woodworker you trust. Cheaper and lighter
Nice, you might find it easier to edge band each panel before assembly. 👍😉
WOW
I know it was probably hard for the saw to not kick back during those first plywood cuts even with support from the trash can. Idk if you’ve seen the tip of using a thick piece of foam board insulation as a backer and using the entirety of your work bench for cuts. Make it go a lot smoother. Just need storage for the foam board lol thanks for the content!
Yes! I just picked up a foam board a week ago so I can start doing that. Looking forward to smoother cutting in the future.
Great make over . I would have thought that the ceiling galaxy was going to work but you did an awesome job. Love the closet rework too. Fine work
Mmmmh, hay que acomodar todo ese cablerío.
Me encanta ésta chica, es mucho más habilidosa que yo. Y que bonito su color de cabello natural. Y su voz. Y su sonrisa.
Love😍😘😘
Nice work. What is the safety shield you used in the beginning of the video? Thanks.
amzn.to/2PIR9pY this guy :)
Ciao sei Bravissima
Wow sweet job. Your my kind of woman.
You've done some great work. Now don't spoil your husband that much put him to work
your husband is the luckiest man , mam
What is the brand of your clamps? They seem very handy, no pun intended.
I got em at a garage sale and have looked online for them forever! Another follower actually helped me finally source them on Amazon from an obscure seller in the UK. They're linked in the description 😉

Thank you Melissa. love your vlogs
Did you explain in a different video why you plaster over the paneling instead of removing it? That seems like extra work. Also DEA will want to search that 1 ft hiding space over the closest.
If I removed it there would be crumbling plaster behind and believe me that's a LOT more work haha.
I bet you gave up your first born for those 3 sheets of plywood! Lol...
Use a better blade on your saw and your tearout would be limited. Crosscut blade would work well... keep up the good work!
ok , need to be careful screw cap don't come loose
Omg. Now she’s pregnant? Just when I thought she couldn’t be cuter. Lucky guy...
Melissa really is a doll.
Where did this guy find this beauty, I’ve got the beautiful wife but she can’t read a tape measure
