Storage furniture from Ikea Scandinavian made with rustic oak, by Stefan

Description

We had bought fairly cheap standard cabinets at Ikea that are very practical as storage. But they are only a bit chilly and uncomfortable in the white bedroom in the attic. That is why we ordered rustic oak tops with a thickness of 26 mm at TOSIZE.co.uk that we placed on top of the cabinets as a 'topper'. It is very sleek and immediately makes the atmosphere a bit cozier and the appearance of the cabinets a bit more luxurious. We are very happy with it.

Solid oak worktop

First we had to build the Ikea cabinets. Sometimes they are not very close to each other, so we connected them with some screws so that they fit together well. Then we measured the cabinets - because there is a TV on it, we kept the actual depth of the cabinets so that there is a gap to the wall where you can route the cables. Please note: because of the plinth you will have a gap towards the wall, if you want the plate to adhere to the wall, you have to add that to the depth of the cupboard. Then ordered plates from TOSIZE.co.uk. Went completely hassle free and clear information about pick up. End result .... very nice and sleek. If necessary, we still put the plates in a matt colorless varnish to protect them against dirt and stains.
