i went to ikea in ohio to look at kitchen cabinet options and get some ideas... and ended up leaving with all of my cabinet doors and drawer fronts.
why? how? what????the door style that i was thinking of using from ikea was discontinued a few months ago. i assumed i'd use a different style, but after seeing all the doors in person i still liked the discontinued style the best for our house. coincidentally, the ohio store still had some sizes in stock... at 70% off. for the cost savings, i kind of felt like i needed to at least try to make it work even though we had not planned on starting the kitchen renovation just yet.
i only bought the door and drawer fronts, it will probably be several months before we drive up to chicago to buy the cabinet boxes and remaining pieces.
so here's a sneak peak of what i was working on while at ikea:
i still need to take some measurements, draw up exact plans/elevations/etc. but i think i can make it work.

What model are the doors? So exciting!
So cool! Can hardly wait to see the end result!
Wow, for 70% off I would have done the same thing! Good luck!
wow, very exciting!! can't wait to see what you chose
Nothing like a good sale to get you motivated. I like your plan. Can't wait to see come to life!
