About Parkplaceabode Sound Effects

This is one of my favorite projects to date. This is just part 1 of 2 but I already have the full video posted on my profile! \nI decided to post this one with no music and just the building sounds because it’s so satisfying 🙌
Hi! 👋🏼 Let me re-introduce myself! My name is Natalie and I’m the creator and custom woodworker behind the handle of @parkplaceabode . I created this account a few years ago but never posted on this platform.. but I’m here now! 🙌🏼😀 Due to recent events, I felt the need to allow you to get to know who I really am and that @parkplaceabode is THE ONLY handle I have across all social media platforms (no spaces or underscores at all). Any other account that looks similar or has stolen my videos is NOT ME and is a fake. So feel free to report those 😉 Anyways, I wanted to also thank you for being here, supporting me, and following along in this now 3 year journey of mine! I hope I can inspire you and teach you a few things while I share the process of every project I do. ❤️ . . . . . #parkplaceabode #diyprojects #diyhome #homediy #homediyproject #homediyprojects #diyit #homerenovations #reelsofinsta #woodworking #woodworkingwomen #workbench #womenwhobuild #ladieswhobuild #beforeandafter
Drawers ✅ Shaker doors + drawer fronts ✅ Primer and paint on all the pieces ✅! We’re going for a clean, modern look for these built-ins using my fav crisp white paint! From where we left off last time in the Part 2 recap, I made some good progress this past 1.5 weeks! I’m so glad to be done with priming and painting of everything (well about 95% done). This means I’m getting close to install day! I have a few more things to wrap up and I’ll be beginning the install next week! 😀 Like, share, and follow for more DIY and to see how these built-ins turn out in their new home! . . . . . #custombuiltins #builtins #parkplaceabode #diyprojects #diyhome
🔔 Here’s a TUTORIAL on how to joint edges on solid boards WITHOUT a jointer! 🙌🏼 This is one of absolute favorite tricks to know and is super useful for anyone who doesn’t own a jointer but wants a solid and seamless glue up! I ran my boards through a table saw, but if you don’t have one, you can also use a track saw or circular saw and get similar results! 👍🏼 I’m using my favorite double sided woodworking tape from @xfastenbrand ! It’s so sticky, holds SO good, and doesn’t leave any residue behind once removed! Did you find this trick helpful?

📐 TUTORIAL FOR MAKING DRAWERS for Blum undermount slides! I made the drawers for the bench part of the built-ins and wanted to share again how to measure and cut for them to fit Blum undermount slides. Blum undermount slides are my absolute favorite drawer slides and although they are a bit pricier, they are SO worth it for the quality you get. Making drawers to fit them can seem daunting at first, but it’s actually not hard! Don’t forget to LIKE, SAVE, and COMMENT below if you found this tutorial helpful! Are you ready to make some drawers yourself now? 😉 . . . . . #custombuiltins #undermountdrawerslides #howto #tutorial #parkplaceabode
My next big project has begun! I’m building a window bench/bookshelves built-in unit. It frames a beautiful bay window and I’m so excited about it! To start off it off, I cut down 6 sheets of plywood and got the bench and cabinet carcasses completed in 4 days. Cutting down all the plywood took me longer than expected, but doesn’t every part of a project seem to take longer than expected? IYKYK. 🫠 Now that the bench and cabinet boxes are built, next up are making all the face frames for the cabinets and bench and assembling the two bookshelves! Follow along to see how these built-ins progress! 😘 . . . . . #custombuiltins #builtins #parkplaceabode

INSTALLATION of the built-ins has commenced! I can’t tell you how excited I am to be at this step of installing the built-ins! It’s really taking shape now that the cabinets and bench are fully secured to the studs. SO much had to happen under + behind the cabinets and bench the past 2 days to get to this point (which is everything you see in this video). What’s next to install and get done? ✍🏼 1. Cabinet counters and trim pieces, 2. Both bookshelves, 3. Upper trim pieces of the bookshelves, 4. The cabinet doors and drawer fronts, 5. Hardware, 6. Picture lights. Lastly, can’t forget about all the finishing touches like wood filler to the nail holes, caulking, and touch up paint. I think I’ll be able to get this all done and show you the final reveal sometime next week, so stay tuned! Are you as excited as me?! 😀 . . . . . #builtins #custombuiltins #parkplaceabode #diyprojects #woodworking
Old post explained! I don’t necessarily want to glue cabinets right to a wall, but I did want to use and adhesive along with screwing into the steel studs. So the cleat allows for that, and I can hang my cabinets off of that.
The past couple days, I focused on getting the face frames and bookshelves completed for these built-ins! The simple trim I just added on the exposed sides of the bookshelves might be my favorite thing about these built-ins so far. It’s all in the details as I always say. 😉 Next up, I’ll be making the 3 drawer boxes for the bench and all the shaker doors and drawer fronts! Follow along to see these window bench built-ins come to life! 😘 #custombuiltins #custombuilds #woodworking
