Cabinets

Over the last couple weeks, my dad, Will and I have been building cabinets for the space on either side of our fireplace. We wanted to have some extra storage space and do we searched for a couple months finding the perfect cabinet. Everything we found was $3000 more than what we wanted to pay. As we talked to my dad, we figured out a way to build what we wanted and make it cost what we wanted to spend.






My dad being an engineer is great at the little details, measuring, etc. But we ran into a problem with our cabinets. While they were square, our walls are not :) So we had to do some trimming, sanding and lots of luck to get the cabinets into the spaces. Lets just say in an earthquake they are not going anywhere. Our walls got a little destroyed, but luckily we could fix the walls with some paint!
