She is happy, she is at home and she is here to empower you. She is the Handy Goddess. Okay, so let us put on that base molding and I got a piece already cut right here. See it is going to go along the bottom like that. Perfect and it covers that any mistakes that inline of me cutting of the board. Okay, so let us just attached this and you want finish the nail with a nail punch. Okay, the base molding is on, does not it look great?
Just covers off all those little gifts we might have down there but now I want to dress up the front of this and the side. I am going to do that so simply with just framing that with some molding. But, first we need to decide, you know the sides of the molding how far we want to have it from the edges so what I would like to do. You just take some chalk, just do your best to draw a box and then think of about it. Is that where you want it? Is that a good placement? And I say, no.
So you would generally kind of erase your chalk and try again. I am going to try a little bit closer to the edge so I like this and we are going to measure it now and I am adjusting in two inches is the approximation on this. And then what we will going to do is take the molding. It takes a nice trim molding and I found this stuff that I would like and I am going to cut it out and it is going to sit right along the edge there and created just a little frame in front of the box, which also a lot of fun when be painting this.
Hey, here I got my trim so let us take our box and flip it up so it is going to be flat.

Then we decide is lounge is we are going to frame this up so I want to draw a pencil line so we can have a mark that we will exactly line up to trim with and we now have a framework. The same process.

We want to take a glue and we are going top glue that to this and then we put them down and we are going to nail them on. We are going to use small nails so they are called brad. Okay, this tiny little braders and it works perfect for trim molding. Okay, so let us just go to it, all right. You always have to glue your wood it makes very much more secure projecting it and I do recognize that you use wood glue. So once upon a time ahead of me something like super glue for project like this and I do not like, “no, no, no.” We need wood glue. The right product for the right project and also works really well to if nails started before you put the glue on because you can see how slippery and slimy I guess so it is much easier to get the whole deal going.
Oh! Yes, I got the front done. Is that not perfect and then stretch this you got this cut top of this. For the exact same size as the bottom piece. All right, well then that make it flush with this edge and that is kind of hard to lift that open, is it not and it does not match the picture he had on that site. So you know what I did, I took that scrap piece a long that we had and I cut piece just one inch wider than the bottom. All right, so that way we are going to have a nice little lift on the edge of the box. So we want to open it we can just lift it up that is going to be great and then we are going to dress this up to because we cannot just have a crappy as this plywood sitting here.
So we are going to take another piece of the same trim down here because this there corner inches wide. We are going to add it along the frond and the sides of the top piece and that will work just perfectly to make this also nice and clean so let us attached this. Okay, that is all finish. We have our top. Now we have to left the glue dry. It should dry for we can really move on anything else. So will see you tomorrow.
