Dustin's Projects

Dustin has been working tirelessly to finish the kitchen cabinets and they are looking AMAZING!! This ended up being a MUCH larger job then either of us imagined... but they are soooooo worth it! I guess that's easy for me to say since I'm not the one doing all the work. But don't they look good??!! We're getting close to "the end" - Dustin thinks he can get them finished by his company's Christmas party, which is going to be at our house on Dec 12th.
















In addition to the kitchen, Dustin has also been working on our new office. He's built four built-in bookcases already and is working on a desktop that will put Bob Villa to shame. It's a little hard to describe, but I'll try. He ordered this special type of "bendy wood" that he's cutting into thin strips and then molding each piece to the circular shape of the desk. So the end result will be a stained, red-oak, curvy, "butcher-blockish" desk. It's going to be awesome. Here's what everything looks like now. I couldn't get a picture of the desktop because that is being worked on in the garage and is currently covered in clamps and all kinds of other "woodshop" contraptions.
