My father starting our DIY kitchen counter, he opposed the first idea😅

Hi Hivers,

So we are in the processing of building our new home as we have to leave our current house 😔. I'll have a separate blog for the full story.

Anyways so the house and lot actually belongs to my sister but she's abroad so we are doing the construction and everything for the house.

Since she plans to do a big kitchen we have to create a temporary one for the place to be livable. We need to make sure that we have a place to live before the lot owner of our current house decides to demolish our place.

So I searched on possible temporary kitchen ideas and I came across this video I told my mother about the plan and we asked her brother to make the structure like this

But then my father opposed saying it can be done using wood instead of angle bars. Since my father knows carpentry we decided to let him do it.

Here are some of the first materials I bought just to start the project

There are few more materials we need to purchase like the PVC pipes, coupling, elbow, faucet etc.

Here is my dedicated father working on the project.🥰

I did not get to take a lot of pictures as the place is far from our current residence and I'm also at work, so it is just my mother who accompanies my father.

I asked her to take pictures but told me she doesn't know 😅

That's it for the day, well update you on the finished product!

It is always good to have a know how in carpentry. No need to find people to do it it extra pay.

That's awesome, it will be surely sturdy and you have saved some labor fees. I love creating wood crafts too, I even created my office table from scratch. From cutting wood's and assembled. Handyman and Handywoman👷‍♀️🔨

Yup, and it is just temporary till we build the real kitchen. But I do like to reward my father for the effort as it is not an easy task. 😊

Congratulations, that looks like it will be a beautiful home. It would be really cool to see the progress here on Hive as you work to complete it.
