Yesterday I mentioned we are going to remove a built-in in the family room.
When I first sized up the project I thought it would easy-ish. Easier than wallpaper removal, harder than busting up drywall with a sledgehammer.
I carefully removed the glass shelves, glass doors, and modeling around the outside of the cabinet.
I was hoping that we could save the cabinet and use it in a different room.
The molding was a bit of a pain to get off but it came off in good shape.
When I pulled the bottom part of the molding we made a discovery.
The brick under the built-in, well isn’t there. The built-in was built over a hole.
There is also a loose brick at the top of the built-in. I’m sure that behind this brick we’ll find some kind of treasure, I’m just hoping it’s not the furry with a long tail kind.
So, anyway, with all the extra parts removed DH and my son attempt to remove the cabinet, but it is glued to the brick.
