Save Money by Ordering Unfinished Kitchen CabinetsMany families eat, pay bills, do homework, play board games and entertain casual guests in the kitchen and hence are always on the lookout for a great looking kitchen that is practical yet doesn't break the budget. One way to save money when remodeling a kitchen or custom building a home is to buy unfinished kitchen cabinets. These are unstained and unvarnished so you get to save serious money by doing these steps yourself. Measure and Measure Again Unfinished kitchen cabinets can be ordered online or in stores provided you have accurate measurements. Measure once and check it twice; it is always possible to make an unfinished kitchen cabinet a few inches smaller but you can't shave off the side of your refrigerator! If you're unsure about your measurement skills, get a designer or other professional to do the measurement with you and provide a plan or sketch of the finished kitchen in writing so that you can go by that when ordering unfinished kitchen cabinets as well as other kitchen fixtures and elements like countertops, backsplashes, electrical outlets and appliances. Shade of Stain After you are done measuring, it is time to choose the wood for your unfinished kitchen cabinets. The choices are many and it is important for you to choose the correct shade of wood since it is easier to darken a stain than it is to lighten the color should you not like it later. If you are looking for a light themed kitchen with neutral kitchen cabinets, look for birch, maple or beech. If you like darker tines, than opt for cherry or teak. If you still want deeper tones, then mahogany or hickory are your best bets. However, before you place the final order on your unfinished kitchen cabinets, always go and check the actual color in person rather than relying on a swatch on a computer screen. You will have to live with the color for a while, and so you would be better off checking the color against the choice of flooring and countertops before signing the dotted line. |
