This is our new custom cabinet in our living room! You can see the "before" pictures HERE The "after" part was relatively painless on our parts:) A cousin of mine had a custom piece done by Top Shelf Cabinetry in Nevada, IA, so we went over to talk to them. The preliminary design didn't take long, and once we were on the roster, they built the cabinet quickly. There was a bit of a measuring glitch (as in when it got delivered, it wouldn't fit into the recessed space, oops), but they cheerfully hauled it back, fixed it, and got it in place within a few days. It only took me 6 weeks to blog about it:)
I have never posted pictures from our kitchen either, so you get double the pleasure (ha) today! I don't even know when we painted the kitchen...maybe a year ago? Who knows. Then I changed out and added new decor, still within the same theme. I am really liking it now! There are a couple things I'd still like to do, but this is definitely livable. There is one wall painted "merlot" and the others are light sunny yellow (same as our entryway). The theme is fruit, including grapes for wine since I wanted a hint of Europe:)

Great photos! The custom built cabinet is beautiful. :)
about time you posted on your blog!!!!!
Love it all.
Cheri, your new cabinet is really gorgeous---It looks perfect and I'm glad you have exactly what you wanted. I love your kitchen, too. I was going for a Tuscan feel when I painted mine a couple of years ago, but never really completed the accessorizing that I wanted to do---you have given me some ideas!! Very nice, Joellyn
Yeah, yeah, I know, Lori:) I haven't done any scrapbooking lately either...just out of the notion, I guess.
I love it! It looks awesome! and you did a really good job with the kitchen decor also.
Oooh, that cabinet is beautiful! ;)I'm a sucker for good woodwork. And I like your kitchen decor, too.
What a beautiful cabinet! Too bad TVs can't be as pretty! Why do they have to use black!? I love your kitchen too. My brother has a similar color combo in his dining room and it is such a cozy atmosphere. I'm not sure I'd be brave enough to put that color on a wall. I'd have to close my eyes and just go for it!!! Looks great!
Cheri, the custom cabinet turned out great! It looks like it belongs there. Don't you love DH's and all the electronic stuff? We have similar issues around here all the time.
Also love the colors of your kitchen! Very elegant. TFS!
