Kitchen Cabinets

The kitchen is slowly coming a long. It is starting to take shape and I think it is going to look great. It is nice to have such a talented husband because he is currently in the process of making the cabinet doors. This had made it nice because they are exactly what we want and MUCH cheaper than if we had to hire someone. In the kitchen, we are trying to go for a "farmhouse kitchen" look. We are trying to make it look the way the kitchen could have looked when the house was new(except for the modern appliances of course!).
Kent making the frames of the doors.
Then inside the frame he sets a piece of bead board to make the face.
This is what the finished product will look like. On the left of the fridge is the pantry that still needs a door. On the right will be a small counter top with drawers. Note the tile on the ceiling and bead board on the walls. Both characteristics of the old farm kitchens we have seen in pictures.
Close up of the details
The cabinets on the right will be inset with glass so a person can see all of our pretty; colorful mixing bowls and plates.
