CUSTOM WOOD DOOR

Our CPA had a dilemma with one of their small offices in their space.  This office had a metal security door that had to stay, but looked terrible in the space. 

Our solution:  We put a solid wood panel on the interior side of the door.  This panel matchs the style and color of the cabinetry in the office.  We used black metal decorative brackets to attach the wood the metal door.  We also built a matching wood panel to cover the metal service panel in the space.  

Now this office has the security of metal door with the look of a wood door.  Very happy client.

CUSTOM PICTURE FRAME

I had purchased this great photo from Esty that would look perfect above my fireplace.  When I hung it up the scale was Wayyy off, but I was determined to find a solution.  Quick answer - build a frame.  

I wanted a simple frame in rustic wood.  When constructing this frame, we made sure to include the knots in the wood. Once completed, the picture looks even better and in the proper scale.

KITCHEN REMODEL - SOUTH ROCKWOOD

In this kitchen, cabinetry was mixed light and dark.  This created interest that would otherwise be too "light" or too "dark".  White kitchens have been the norm for some time, but it is time to bring back the stained cabinets.  The counters are also two different colors.  Kitchens do not have to be "matchy-matchy".  Go ahead and mix it up.

 Pot filler for convenience, white subway tile with a metal deco strip to add interest.
