Step 3

Build flatpack wardrobe bases. Making sure during the design phase to order flatpack sizes that will maximise the space available and fill out as much space as possible.

Step 4

Step 6

Using a cover panel the same colour as the flatpack, cut to size and attach the side of the wardrobe to give illusion of built in wardrobe. Cut oak ledge to size and complete painting making sure to caulk and fill any gaps around the wardrobe cover panels

What a gorgeous makeover - love that you maintained the integrity of the ceiling and didn't cover it up!  Beautifully done.
