Doctor's Cabinets.

This afternoon, after submitting a major grant for work, I went over to Housewerks to pick up the two cabinets I bought. They're old doctor's cabinets from the early 1960's and have a ton of storage space, which is essential in my little house. Of course, bringing them into the house, means re-arranging everything else. They needed a good scrub, which I've now done and I am getting ready to dis-assemble my kitchen to make room for the taller one. It fits in the space with about a quarter-inch to spare between the corner of it and the fridge door. That's one of the perils of living in an 11.5' wide house!
Now it's time to get back to work!

  2. Cabinet envy--especially for the tall one! Will you show them to us when you are done? I am intrigued by your "dis-assembling" project.

  3. Just... In order to put the tall cabinet in the kitchen, I had to take down the shelf which held all of my copper pots. And those had to go somewhere else, so the entire kitchen is getting re-worked now!

  4. I'm crazy about those cabinets. They're wonderful. I especially like the basket-weave glass.

  5. They look great, and have so much more character than anything new you could buy.
