A kitchen is the hub of activity in every home. New appliances and gadgets have changed the way we cook and equip our kitchens. The emergence of cable television and the Food Network influences the way we prepare meals and the décor we choose for our kitchens.

Functional kitchens are created by cabinets. The depth and placement of drawers and cupboards determines what can be stored. Cabinet accessories help to improve organization and access in drawers and cupboards. Today, cabinet makers offer a wide range of accessories that are specifically designed to fit to their cabinets. We offer two lines of cabinetry as an option for our customers: semi-custom cabinets made by Bishop Cabinets, and custom cabinets made by Elmwood Fine Custom Cabinetry. Both manufacturers offer an extensive line of kitchen cabinet accessories.

Cabinets are the primary architectural element in a kitchen or bathroom remodel. What makes cabinets stand out is the finish. The color, sheen and texture of a cabinet finish will anchor all of the other features in a kitchen or bath including counters, flooring, tile, fixtures and appliances. Kitchen and bathroom cabinets should be durable with a finish that will stand up to the wear-and-tear of daily use. The type of paint and stains used by a manufacturer and the way they are applied in the factory contribute to the appearance and durability of the cabinets.

It’s amazing how new countertops, backsplash and appliances along with some paint and a little tweaking can update a kitchen. The Fayetteville kitchen featured in this month’s “Project of the Month” demonstrates how a minor kitchen remodel can really transform the look and feel of a home. It’s hard to believe that this is the same kitchen. Minor changes transformed a time worn room into a stunning kitchen that looks as though it came out of the pages of a home décor magazine.
