Poisonwood Custom Cabinets Katy

I recently help renovate this older building for their custom cabinets and there was some scraps I kept just because they could be reused and it just so happened that they were just a little longer then the custom cabinets I am working on today so all I have to do is shave a little off and they will fit in and look brand new when I am done.  Before nailing them down to my custom cabinets I measured to make sure everything was square and then fastened them down with some staple like straps. Since these shelves did come from an old building I went ahead and sanded down both side to remove some of the coal dust that was caked into the fibers. I also made two pieces for the front of the custom cabinets that would sit above and below the doors. To make them a little bit nicer I put a chamfer on the edges. Then I glued it and nailed the shelves into the kitchen custom cabinets. The last step to construct was the doors to the cabinets. The doors I settled on were simple and were assembled with butt joints glue and you guess it more pocket screws. So they would match the top and the bottom plates of the custom cabinets. I added the same chamfer around the outside edges of the doors but I left the inside edges how they were. I also flipped the doors over and use the router to add a quarter-inch around the inside of each opening of the kitchen custom cabinets. For the molding at the top we used a contrast of tan and white to blend the kitchen with the counter tops. This was a request from the buyer that I think turned out really well. With the custom cabinets aligning with the oven top this makes the kitchen smooth along each side. The back splash was a green granite that climbed up the wall.
