A couple years ago, my nephew Dan came to the farmhouse and installed these shelves for me (us). They've served us well, but I found that I needed more storage close to the range so I went to (don't be surprised, now) Facebook Marketplace. I found a trio of cabinets that would serve my purposes well, so they came home with me.
Two of the three cabinets were installed on Monday, and I love how the installation turned out. I knew I wanted to paint them, but also loved the wood finish, so I made a compromise (for now). We'll live with the doors, as is for a while and we can always decide to paint them later.
Now, all my cooking oils and stove-side condiments are right at hand, and I've brought more of the London gray-green to this side of the kitchen. I realized that I need to purchase cabinet knobs that match the rest that are on the other side of the room, but these are find until I get the replacements.
There is a third cabinet, but that's going to be saved for the pantry. There are big changes coming in there in the next few months, but I'll share more on that another time.
I still have screw/nails holes to patch and then repaint between the upper and lower cabinets. I'm also contemplating some sort of back splash for that area. I'm looking into that now and will let you know what we decide. For now, I'm much content and loving the new additions.
What do you think? Do you like the natural wood doors or do they bother you? Go ahead and let me know what you think.
