Screen Door Cabinets~

My husband asked me if I needed any help this last week and I said, why yes I do. :) 

I drew this picture of a cabinet i wanted, the great thing about my husband is I can draw a picture and he sees what I see in my head (does that make sense) LoL!   Then he builds them, and amazingly they look exactly how i had them envisioned!!

                                         Here is the picture I drew for him : 

so he ordered the lumber for the cabinets:

then i spray painted the outside of the cabinets black....

then painted the outside white, and the inside with ASCP Louis blue:



the other one wanted to be RED!


They were so cute, I had to get a picture of both of them!


Im now working on some 6ft tall ones, that are going to be soooo cute!!! I love the glass look in these cabinets (we usually use glass when we build these) but there is something so cute about the screen on the doors, im loving them!

have a good week~

  5. I love the screen door look, a different take on the chicken wire look. I think they look better without the glass:) Great job!!

  6. So cute! I have a similar cabinet I would like to find or have my husband build on my list! I love the finishes on yours!
    ps...you might want to turn off your word verification. I almost closed my tab before the word verification came up and my comment would have been lost.

  8. Your husband BUILT that...that is AMAZING. My husband is handy, and could probably make something similar, but it would take about 10 years and way more stress than its worth...not a weekend. Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful - great colors....I'm going to have to search around and see if you have pictures of your kitchen here. I'm assuming he built those cabinets too? Thanks for sharing - they are amazing.

  11. You are SO lucky to have a husband who can see what's in your head -- and who's willing to make it reality!
