Dining Room/ Home Office {Make a pencil drawer}

By Pinktoesandpowertools | Woodworking Tutorials

I mentioned before that I wasn’t sure I was going to add a pencil drawer drawer to the Dining Room built-ins. Up until now I have not owned a table saw but you might recall that right before I started on this project, I got one for my birthday. I decided to try my hand […]

Dining Room/ Home Office {How to Install Inset Door Hinges}

By Pinktoesandpowertools | Woodworking Tutorials

I’ve installed inset door hinges on a number of my projects now, and I’ve finally come up with a way to do it easily. And by myself. Sometimes it seems like you need about 7 pairs of hands to keep things where you want them when you are building, and with this method all I […]

Dining Room/ Home Office {drawer fronts}

By Pinktoesandpowertools | Woodworking Tutorials

It seems that every time I build something, I modify how I went about making various parts.  I have built drawer fronts for cabinets using a few different methods now, and this time I am very happy with how they came out.  I don’t know if my level of skill has increased or if the […]

Dining Room/ Home Office {How to make a hanging file drawer with a Dremel}

By Pinktoesandpowertools | Home Organization

I love hanging files, so when turning the Dining room into a Home Office space, hanging file drawers were a must.  I played around with my own design and measured existing file drawers in our house to come up with a plan.  I pinned some things I could purchase to attach to the drawer, but […]

Today’s Project

By Pinktoesandpowertools | Home Improvement Projects

It’s a beautiful day for painting! We just had a shed built in the last few weeks and decided to paint it ourselves to save some money. I love the look of our Woodshed, as the Hubs has taken to calling it, even though we won’t store wood in it. It’s the name of the […]

Dining Room/ Home Office {How to make a Desktop or Countertop}

By Pinktoesandpowertools | Woodworking Tutorials

When I was thinking about the Dining Room turned Home Office project, I envisioned a dark, stained desktop that had a reclaimed wood feel to it I knew that reclaimed wood would probably be expensive to buy or time consuming to try to find. I was inspired by ThriftyDecorChick’s dining room built-ins (I actually played around […]

Dining Room/Home Office {The Reveal}

By Pinktoesandpowertools | Home Organization

I knew turning the dining room into a home office/dining room was going to be a big project, I just didn’t know it was going to be a big, BIG project. Ignorance was bliss, until I was in it too far to turn back! I don’t know that I will ever take on a project […]

Look what I found!

By Pinktoesandpowertools | Random Thoughts + Ramblings

  I’m finally done with the dining room built-ins and I was moving stuff to the new location last night when I ran into these papers. They are the original mock ups I drew about 8 years ago to take to the cabinet people (long before I started building)! I ended up pretty close to […]

Dining Room/Home Office {Drawer Glides}

By Pinktoesandpowertools | Woodworking Tutorials

Ahhh, installing drawer glides. I’ve done my fair share by this point, and each time I’ve went about if a little differently. I started out measuring, using a level to draw a guide line, and attaching. And then there was a LOT of fiddling around to try to get the inset drawer to fit just […]

Quick Tip {Inexpensive, Collapsible Workbench}

By Pinktoesandpowertools | Quick Tips + Tricks

Since I do not have a workshop for my woodworking adventures, all of my tools need to tuck away when I’m not using them.  Up until now I have been working on the garage floor–which appears pretty flat until you are up close and personal on it–and trying to make your project square.  My garage […]

Woodworking In The Heat

By Pinktoesandpowertools | Random Thoughts + Ramblings

It has been extremely hot here in Ohio. Extremely. Hot. So when you are out in the garage plugging in power tools in weather like this, you must stay hydrated or you are not going to feel good! Here’s a drink I’ve kept on hand that tastes way better than plain water and makes it […]

Dining Room/Home Office {The Plans}

By Pinktoesandpowertools | Progress Posts

I know I overthink my projects before I even buy the first board. I know I do it and I can’t help it. Every time I tell myself to not be so uptight about the plans. And every time I spend hours and hours drawing up every aspect of it. Oh well! Here’s evidence of […]
