The Dog Flap

Well, I said I was going to do it....I pottered about this morning but kept getting this nagging feeling, so I did it!

I had lots of help from Bradley and Tawny who thought mummy's hammer and screwdrivers would be much better put to use in the paddock, little darlings This is just a temporary measure until I can sort something else out, hence the flap is made from a plastic dog food bag, this being both waterproof and flexible, aswell as not being too heavy for them to push through.

This is the door once I'd reinforced the piece going across (that holds the glass in), and removed the panels. Yes Giddy, I got you in the shot

This is the door with the flap in photographed from the inside:


This is the view from the outside, you can see how rotten the wood is:


But does it work?..............



Tawny says "yes it does mummy"




Thanks for looking

Wow, you're really getting into this DIY stuff big time

Hi Sheree Hope you have taken out a patent on it Lol

Thanks Wolfie, you're right there, my mind is doing overtime as to what to start on next, the cottage doesn't need anything doing so its just these little "would be nice to haves" that I'm concentrating on. Now I think the dogs would really like an agility course in the paddock, oh and a tree house


Now there's an idea, trouble is would I have to include the dog food company in any royalties that came my way?

Blimey Sheree you are really cracking on with all these jobs aren't you!!!!

Don't think you could show my OH a few things do you???
I can't get him motivated to do house DIY but if it's jobs in his workshop or shed now that's a different matter

Not only basically clever, but innovative as well. I'm dead jealous...... well done Sheree xox

Excellent, well done. I'm fortunate in that my lot can actually fit through the cat flap lol!

Excellant - There's many DIY mags would pay you for that idea I'm sure

Another great job Scorpio. If you've not got much planned for the weekend I have a DIY job you may be interested in - see my post about my dad's porch door!!!
