Are your cabinets being custom made? I’ve found it is actually less expensive to do that around here, unless someone is just so charmed with something off the rack that nothing else will do. Also, custom made means less cutting or shimming to get that perfect fit.

I’m hopefully having the same person make the same cabinets for my next house as did this one-I know it sounds boring, but when I find a style and price that works for me, I tend to stick with it-and I saved nearly $3000 over the price of the ones I liked at the home store that were just the same...

no, these are off the rack at Home Depot, custom would be a ton more expensive. I don't think that's boring at all. What i have chosen for the kitchen is very similar in style to what i had put in downstairs in the butler's pantry when we finished the basement. We went with a butler's pantry instead of a bar, since we don't really entertain like that.

it's BASICALLY these, but with a warmer cherry type wood and with dark granite countertops. I like whatever that is with the lines up and down on the doors. cottage style or something? don't have the descriptive language. i want black wrought iron-like handles etc. and none of that glass display stuff, want closed cabinets.
