Reclaimed Wood Kitchen Cabinets for the Kitchen

Hey, guys.  We’re back in the kitchen this week with new reclaimed wood kitchen cabinets.  The cabinets were made from wood pallets and pieces of beadboard from my wood stash.

Let’s take a look.

Sorry, for the fuzzy photos.  I used my camera phone which usually takes awesome photos, but not this time.  That’s what I get for being lazy. (sigh)

The pallet boards were trimmed, sanded and cut to size.

Then, the base was framed using the boards and a few stringers.

I’m sure you noticed the cabinet has legs instead of the typical base of a cabinet.  I decided to give the cabinet legs after being inspired by a bar created out of pallets on Pinterest.  I loved the look and thought I would give it a try.  If I don’t like the final result, I’ll cut the legs off and add a base.  But, so far, I’m loving it.

I added beadboard to the outside of the cabinet instead of  plywood.

I created a space on the bottom shelf for cookie sheets to stand upright by using leftover wood from the hood.

Why spend extra money for an insert when I can make them using scraps from a pile? Win!

I finished the cabinet by painting the outside black and staining the inside boards.

Last week, I shared my DIY countertop tutorial for the cabinet.  If you missed the post you can read it at DIY Countertop Wood Countertop.

Up next… A cabinet and a couple doors.  Stay tuned for the final reveal.

Thanks for stopping by!
