China Cabinet

Submitted by Fawn on Wed, 11/24/2010 - 05:44

Hello, Ana! Love your site and it has inspired me to look at furniture in a whole new way! My aunt wants to buy us a dining room china cabinet, but all the ones at our stores here are super ornate, carvings, etc and just not my simple, classy style. Also, Cherrywood colors were pushing the price range, and my lovely 15 yr old dining set is a warm cherry that I'd love to match.

Looked on your site and found some wall unit and hutch type units, but none seemed to allow for food service. I'd love to have the cabinet double as a place to put food for self serve meals:

I would love to build the middle two pieces (cabinet and hutch....gotta be cheaper than $2,000!)

Another example:

In my dream world I'd also attach granite countertop to the cabinet top so food spills don't affect wood so much.

Thank you many times over for your work!

We love your plans, many are easily tweeked, and we plan to use the cubby media wall plans to create American Girl storage cabinets for
Christmas!
