Pine wardrobe

rich — Thu, 10 Feb 2011 21:24:29 +0000

I have been very busy lately working on various projects. Also, I have been surprised by the large number of enquiries in what I had previously thought to be the quietest part of the year. This project was completed a few weeks ago, so here are a couple of photographs showing the finished piece. The cabinets each contain four drawers and a hanging-rail. The panelled doors slide to open, helping to save some space in a small room.

Further recent examples of cabinets & wardrobes can be seen here and more information here. For a quote, or to discuss a similar project please get in touch, follow this link.

Cherry shelving unit & oak cabinet

Update: The shelving unit for records, as mentioned in my last post, is now complete . The first photo here shows the completed unit before it had been varnished. In the second photo the unit has now been spray-lacquered to bring out the beauty of the cherry-wood veneer. Click on photographs to enlarge.

This piece of furniture has been custom-made to the clients specifications for use as shelving for a vinyl record collection. If you would like a quote for a similar unit or would like to discuss your ideas for a storage / shelving project please get in touch. My contact details can be found here.

This week I have also been working on a small wardrobe. See photo below:

I will add another photograph when the project is complete.

Fitted wardrobes in beech

This project was to build and fit a large beech veneered wardrobe, pictured below. This four door wardrobe comprises 2 cabinets, one fitted with shelves, the other with 2 hanging rails.

As the wardrobe was for a third floor bedroom I made it in several smaller pieces and put it all together once it was in the room.

Wardrobes with sliding doors

The large fitted wardrobe from the last blog post is now finished. This triple wardrobe includes 4 hanging rails and 8 drawers. The cabinets are constructed from melamine laminated MDF. The sliding doors are grooved to emulate traditional paneled doors and finished with satinwood paint.

Beech fitted cupboard / wardrobe

The pictures show a fitted cupboard/wardrobe I recently made for a client in Brighton. The cupboard had to be assembled at the property as it was too big to get into the room in one piece. It was at times quite tricky, working in limited space with such a large piece of furniture. Also pictured is David Allistone who has recently joined me to help on larger projects.
