The cabinet was my mums but she hates coat hangers, so I got the coat hanger bit and she got the draws.
Then all I did was add a door
will keep you updated,
at the moment I need to get about 5 tubes of silicon I have already used 3 :0

I got 5 more tubes of silicon so I can do some more peating and the last of the plants arrived today and I got some air moss off a friend-
I got this one here Artificial Silk Flower- Artificial Plant Orchid Bush | eBay for $13
and this for $10 here: 3 X Artificial Green Wire Moss 50g | eBay
and the air moss.

Almost done one side just need the silicon to dry so I can dust it off and then go through and do the bits that I missed,

Yeah these projects get pretty intense when it comes to using glue and silicone! Im on my second tube of liquid nails and i have a 3rd... planning on using about 4-5 tubes of caulk on my background once its in place! :S its gonna cost a pretty penny but not as much as buying a pre-setup one would!

 

[Trench]
