A few weeks ago Mom showed you an update that she made in her pantry<\/a>\u00a0(also here<\/a>,\u00a0 and here<\/a>,\u00a0)\u00a0when she built a storage unit that would also hold her microwave.<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

By adding this unit, she was able to get the microwave off of her pantry counter because she needs that space for her bake station. \u00a0The baskets also added storage for various pantry needs.<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

<\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

When Mr. Spring and I were there this past week-end, Mom had set aside a project for us. \u00a0It only seemed fair since she does so much for us when she visits. \u00a0She had acquired four Queen Anne style furniture legs from a nearby shop when it went out of business. \u00a0Her plan was to attach the legs to the bottom of the stand so that it would then be even with her countertop. \u00a0She had already spray painted the legs a fresh white, and all we had to do was attach them. \u00a0The first thing Mr. Spring did was drill a hole into the bottom. \u00a0He learned that it was a very thin and hollow faux wood. \u00a0He decided to add anchors to hold the screws better.<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

He used extra long screws and doubled their strength by also applying Gorilla Glue.<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Thirty minutes later all four of the legs had been attached…….<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

…..and the top of the stand was even with the countertop, just as it should be.<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The curved legs add a whimsical touch to the otherwise contemporary lines.<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

It’s nice to help Mom out every now and then.<\/h3>\n
