To secure these shelves to the nook panel, we opted to use our Kreg jig so that the fasteners would be concealed. Each shelf got 6 Kreg holes — or pocket holes — 3 along each side.
More on why we did that in a second. With the pocket holes we just added, we could now attach the shelves and back to the panel we cut in step 2! Below, Scott is attaching the top to the sink cabinet. This is why we added our Kreg pocket holes to the top of this panel — it would allow for the fasteners to be concealed completely once the countertop is in place!
Finally, we further secured our almost complete! Nice and sturdy! What we love about this nook is that our future tenant can use these for whatever they wish! Cookbooks, cutting boards, tea towels, wine bottles, and the list goes on. Let us know if you give this a try, and be sure to tag yellowbrickhome if you do!

Nice job! You guys think of everything! Reply Cancel. We never waste an inch! Haha Reply Cancel. Thank you! What a cool idea!! Love seeing a sneak peak of the counter and backlash! Very nice use of the space. Score the brick several times bearing down before you press down the tile cuter. Scoring the brick well helps to give a clean cut. Using an inexpensive angle grinder with a diamond blade is the easiest way to cut tile at an angle or around corners.
Measure and mark the cuts you need to make on the back of the paver. Secure your brick with a clamp and carefully guide your angle grinder along the lines you marked. You will need to apply medium pressure as you guide the grinder and be mindful of your clamp. Use protective glasses when cutting brick as it tends to spray small pieces of stone.
One thing to mention, when working around outlets be careful not to brick over any of the hardware, if you do you will not be able to unscrew this plate and add spacers to extend it to be able to meet your brick and you will not be able to add your outlet covers back on. Just be mindful when you place things and you will have no problems. I used solid white sanded grout. You can choose any color you like, but you definitely need to use sanded grout verses unsanded grout.
Sanded grout is what you use for large joints, unsanded grout is what you would use for very tightly spaced tile. If you are grouting a large space like this I suggest mixing the grout in a 5 gallon bucket with a lid. This allows you to mix a sizable amount at once and cover it so it does not dry out while you are working. You can mix this by hand, but it is much easier to use an inexpensive mixer attachment for your drill and this will combine the grout very quickly.
Once my grout was mixed I shoveled it into a grout bag, which works just like a piping bag for frosting. Simply pipe the grout into the joints. Allow your grout to sit for minutes while you work on the rest of the wall, then go back and smooth the grout to get the look you want.
You can use a tool like this, or a small piece of scrap wood. The final thing I did to my brick to achieve the aged vintage look that I wanted was to take a large damp sponge and wipe over the brick just before the grout was dry.
This allowed a bit of the white grout to come out of the joint and work over the brick. As long as you do this while the grout is still damp not wet, just damp you can use the wet sponge to remove or add more of the grout depending on the look you want. It creates something slightly similar to a german schemer look without covering the brick quite so much.

Tip Got Facebook? Sadly, I have bricked my Nook trying to softroot the device. The first attempt was successful, but I did not see the icons for the apps trook, wifilocker, etc. I downloaded the software again from Rapidshare, flashed the device. Now the nook is frozen on "your device is starting up".
Have attempted to re-install earlier software with no success. Any suggestions? Only had the nook for 3 days. Lesson learned the hard way. Have you contacted Nookdev? They state on their site that if you think you've bricked your device to contact them and let them help you try to figure things out. Originally Posted by hornster.
