With our old kitchen crumbling to pieces, I decided to build a new kitchen. I followed several of Ana's cabinet plans to build the entire kitchen(more than I could list at the bottom). I was able to customize the cabinet sizes in order to maximize my kitchen space. I made the doors myself, so I didn't need to worry about standard sizing. It took me about a year from demolition to completion. I had to buy a few new tools, all the wood, appliances, the floor, and countertop, and still spent around $5,000. I learned so much from this project and we all love our new kitchen! Thank you Ana for all of your wonderful plans!
