Title: Building Kitchen Cabinets
Post by: Paul on April 18, 2011, 08:09:21 AM


This past fall our son Paul ,wife Claudiene and myself  built our cabinets.
They are made out of maple with clear satin varnish. Our son built the cabinets frames, I made the doors and my wife did the finish "hand rubbed". Next the bedroom cabinets, Bathroom and hall.

Oh yeah! Very nice indeed! Im curious about the ceiling, what did you use? I didnt know foam came in green? Maybe that is just the florescent lighting making it look green?
