Island Drawer Fronts & Doors Are Built (Plus, My Artwork Lighting Choice)

However a minimum of now, I can present you why I selected to trim out the doorways and drawer fronts that manner I did. I had initially deliberate to trim out every drawer and door individually. This was the trim I had deliberate to make use of…

On this aspect, the 2 sections are the identical, with every part having three drawers every.

However then on the opposite aspect, I had two extra configurations, with one part having 4 drawers and one other part having two cupboard doorways.

So I wished a design that might make all 4 sections look extra unified, whatever the variety of drawers, and no matter whether or not it had drawers or doorways. With that in thoughts, I made a decision to trim out every part as one entire part. And also you’ll discover that I additionally added just a little nook element to tie it in with the cupboards across the perimeter of the closet. Right here’s what the sections with three drawers seem like. This part is totally completed (edge banding and sanding) and able to be primed…

And once more, on this aspect, the 2 sections can be an identical. However this second part nonetheless wants some sanding earlier than it’s able to be primed…

After which for the opposite aspect of the island, that is what the cupboard doorways seem like. They nonetheless want edge banding and sanding…

After which that is the ultimate part with the 4 drawers. Two of those drawer fronts nonetheless want edge banding, and three of them nonetheless have to be sanded earlier than I can prime them…

However you possibly can see that each one 4 sections could have the identical total dimensions and one unifying design on every part.

After which these are the pulls I made a decision to go together with…

I made a decision to return the unique ones I had bought as a result of they’d these little finials on every finish that may catch on clothes as you stroll previous them, and in a good area like a closet, that may get outdated actually shortly. And I made a decision that utilizing two pulls per drawer would even be a problem. So I opted for one lengthy, modern, finial-less pull for every drawer as an alternative.

I got these pulls on Amazon (affiliate hyperlink), they usually are available seven completely different lengths. If they give the impression of being acquainted to you, it’s as a result of these are the identical pulls I used on my studio cupboards.

I haven’t determined but if I’m going to make use of these on the doorways or if I’m going to make use of the spherical knobs on the doorways like I did within the studio.

In different information, I lastly made my resolution on the lighting to go above the paintings that can go within the washer and dryer sections. I went with these gold 16.5″ picture lights (affiliate hyperlink).

I didn’t need something battery operated as a result of I don’t wish to should recharge lights commonly. And whereas these are meant for hardwiring, the rationale I purchased these specific lights is as a result of they’ve these little holes on the steel backplate that enable them to simply be wired in order that they’ll plug in.

Additionally they have a distant that has completely different mild settings on them, so these will work out completely. They’re just a little extra yellow than I want my golds to me, nevertheless it’s positive. I can dwell with that. 🙂 Now I simply should get frames for these canvases, and I can get these areas completed up fairly shortly.
