We’re all getting into up-cycling at the NDA!

By Robin Birch Group Finance Director
It’s a while sinceย I blogged,so I thought I’d share my creative side with you folks.ย I’m quite handy with working with wood and I hate wasting things.ย I think the posh term is ‘upcycling’.
Anyhow, a while back I made aย free standing corner cabinet and here’s a couple of photo’s…. the pine door was from a demolition siteย andย had been in my garage for some 15 years prior.
Theย half legs and railsย were adapted from a friend’sย brokenย pine table set.Theย sliding latch and keepย are made from oak sills that came from the windows of my house when we installed double glazing.
Theย turned knob is in the shape of an acorn -linking back to theย material.The finish is Farrow and Ball’sย Estate Eggshell Mouse’s Back’ and ‘Strong White’. It came out quite well.
Have a lovely Easter/Royal Wedding break. Don’t forget the course work!
