never a shortage of projects …

Saturday, July 17th, 2010

Just ahead of the really hot weather we managed to get some shades hung in the studio. Using a rail and panel design from IKEA it was pretty easy to set up a layer of three panels across the east end of the studio, which is pretty much solid window. If you look closely at the photo there is a red lazer line … that little tool has been worth every cent.

As with any IKEA project there are lots of parts to sift through and just about as many left over as you used to assemble the thing in the first place … plus the directions are all in picture, oh don’t get me started ……

The difference in studio temp has been noticable … and the panels look great in the space.

The next ‘project’ is to get some stairs under the front door so it is safer getting to the porch and front veranda. Arond here there is never a shortage of projects … js
