Coat Rack and Storage
A coat rack out of RTA cabinets? Yes, it's true. This design image sparked a lot of ideas for us because it shows the flexibility of stock RTA cabinets, and how they can really be used in any room. This coat rack is a great combination of style, function, and extra storage.
Coffee Bar with Mullion Doors
If you are a coffee aficionado, then a coffee bar like this might be something to work into your design. With all mullion doors, and a shelf to keep the coffee mugs and other coffee accessories, this would look great in any kitchen. The staggered look on the wall cabinets gives it a custom look that isn’t hard to create. For an added custom look, attach decorative end panels to the sides.
Staggered Height Bathroom Vanity with Extra Storage
This is probably our most popular design from all of the TV shows that we have worked on. We get emails every week asking how to make this. This design lends itself to the Cherryville line, because the bathroom vanities are only 30” high rather than our standard of 32.5”, but you can still accomplish the same look in any of our lines that feature both a vanity line and kitchen line. This design provides his and her sinks, and a lot of storage with the vertical tower.
End Bookshelf for Wall Cabinets
This simple design allows for extra storage space at the end of a cabinet run, and easy access to spices, cook books, or anything else that you might need in the kitchen. There are a couple of ways that you can create this look, and it will really depend on how deep you are making the cabinet.
Island with End Book Case
One of the challenges in the kitchen is to find a place to keep everything you need and use on a regular basis. Every good cook will keep some cook books around for reference, and what better way to store them than to add a book case in the kitchen. I found this picture of a kitchen and really liked the way they laid out their island. With the sink in the island, and plenty of countertop space to work on, having all of your cookbooks within easy reach is a natural fit. This is really easy to accomplish using our RTA cabinets (easier than you would think). How big or small you want the island and how you will configure the layout, will depend on the size of your kitchen, but the overall design will remain the same. Here are some simple instructions on how to get the same look for your kitchen using our RTA cabinets.
Kitchen Island With Double Ovens
One of the hottest trends in kitchen design is shifting the oven units down to the floor. Traditionally, you would have seen either a free standing range or the oven units stacked in a wall unit. With the trend heading towards design and trying to hide the appliances, installing them in the island is a great way to achieve this. Most people wouldn’t think you could still achieve this look with RTA cabinets, because we don’t have a cabinet specifically for undermount oven units, but you actually can. While this layout shows two ovens, you could easily modify this for a single oven or for wider base cabinets, but the design will remain the same. Here are some quick instructions for re-creating this look in your kitchen.
Kitchen Island with Wine Cooler
In this design, they decided to accentuate the island and make it a focal point of the kitchen by using a different color cabinet. They also came up with a creative way to incorporate a wine cooler into the design, without taking up valuable space along the wall where the appliances would traditionally go. A very simple design that allows flexibility in terms of what you put in the island and how big you want to make it.
Kitchen Hutch with Microwave
It has become common place in kitchens today to put the microwave above the stove in a microwave/range hood combo. What we liked about this design, is that it is simple, and yet creates a customized space for coffee, entertaining, or whatever purpose you can find. The great thing about this design is that it could be used in the kitchen, in an entertainment room, or even as a wet bar. There is a lot of flexibility in how to lay this one out, but we will explain how to build it based on the pictures.
Kitchen Island with Curved Top
We really like this island design for a large kitchen (at almost 4 feet wide and over 8 ft long, it will require a lot of space). This design offers storage on all four sides, while providing a large amount of work surface AND seating; making the island multi-functional. In the picture they feature a built-in farmer’s sink, but for the instructions we are just going to show a regular under-mount sink. The advantage to building a big island like this one, is that it creates a great gathering space and allows the chef to interact with guests.
Pass Through Kitchen Island
While this isn’t a very elaborate design, it is a great way to create a multi-functional space that can help define two different rooms and/or create uniformity between two different living spaces. With this design, you can use one side for extra seating, you could put a dividing knee wall to define the other space, or you can do back to back cabinets to really maximize the storage space. Whichever way you decide to go, this multi-functional design would work great in kitchen or living room. For the instructions below, we assumed you would be putting back to back cabinets to maximize the storage space.
Stacked Wall Cabinets
This design incorporates several different storage options, and also shows another way of handling the layout of wall cabinets. They use a combination of smaller wall cabinets for the top, to create the look of custom cabinets. For the bottom, while it is hard to see in the design picture, they actually took off the doors of the base cabinet and added pull out shelves to break up the look of having a wall of all base cabinets. One additional features that we didn’t add to our design are the cup holders below the plate rack. This is something that can easily be added if you want to complete the look from the picture.
Staggered Height Kitchen Island
This island design is great for a narrow kitchen that needs additional storage space. While it doesn’t allow for extra seating, the wall cabinets on the back of the island give plenty of extra storage. In this design, they utilize the island for a cook top, but you could easily substitute a sink or just take advantage of the extra counter space. It does limit the work space, but frees up room along the wall (especially in a small kitchen), and may help with the coveted “work triangle” which is essential for every kitchen. They also did a nice job in dressing up the bottom of the cabinets with the furniture feet that were added at the corners. For the design below, we didn’t put the feet all the way around, but left them on the front and back.
Built-In Wet Bar
For anyone that loves to do a lot of entertaining, a wet bar is the perfect addition to any home. W really liked this wet bar design because they took a very simple design and make it look like custom furniture. By pulling out the center base cabinet and end wall cabinets it creates the illusion of being a custom hutch. The addition of some extra toe kick to the bottom, gives this wet bar even more character.
Pantry Wall
This design is great for a smaller kitchen and tight spaces, where storage is needed, but standard base cabinets are too deep. At first glance this would look like ordinary base cabinets, but they are actually wall cabinets used to create the pantry and the base cabinets. By using wall cabinets, it frees up 12” of clearance for walking. By adding some decorative accents, it also gives the illusion that this could even be a piece of furniture.
Large Island- Open Concept Living Room
This design is great for creating the open concept kitchen/living room in a house, and for making the cooking area the center of attention. With this design, it allows for eating on one side (with the raised breakfast bar), and plenty or work room for the cook on both sides of the stove. This design is easy to create and is another great idea for an open kitchen feel. For this design, we did not explain how to create the breakfast bar or wall around the cabinets (since this will vary in height and design).
Basement Snack Bar
This is a simple design that would work in a basement entertainment area, workshop, kid’s room, or as a kitchenette for a small apartment. Easy to create, and just as flexible for how many different configurations you could make. Think about adding a door mounted trash can to the base cabinets, or extra store for glasses with a wall insert. We really liked the use of down lighting and the tile backsplash to add some focus to this corner of the room.
Wine Bar With Stem Glass Holder and Wine Rack
For the family that likes to entertain and enjoys wine, this wine bar incorporates everything you will need. While the design shows a small sink, you could also put a wine cooler in the bottom to help keep your white wines chilled. This design also shows a creative way to make additional space above the sink by utilizing multiple small cabinets. You can use your imagination as to how you want to create this, but here is a simple way to create it using our cabinets.
Kitchen Island With Built-In Table
While this is a fairly simple design, it shows another way to create seating at your kitchen island. In this design, they have eliminated the need for a kitchen table by building it into the island. This not only saves on space, but also allows the chef of the house to interact with dinner guests or kids. The staggered height allows for normal height chairs instead of bar stools. Also note the unique hood range that they used in this design! Very easy to make out of our cabinets.
Ornate Cooking Area and Range Hood
This is one of my favorite designs because it really shows how creative you can be. A kitchen like this could cost upwards of $50-60,000 in a kitchen design store or even the big box places. With some simple planning, you can get a similar style to this for less that 10% of what you would pay for custom cabinets. This design lends itself more towards cabinet lines that are painted, but we will give you a basic design that can be used in any cabinet line. Depending on what type of ventilation system you use, you may have to make some modifications to this design.
Kitchen Island with Raised Breakfast Bar
Similar to another design that we showed you, this kitchen island has plenty of room for storage with cabinets on both ends that can be used as bookshelves by removing the doors, or regular storage. The big difference with this design is the additional height of the breakfast bar. By using 42” high wall cabinets, you create an elevated eating area, and add some depth/dimension to the design. The island can be as wide as you want it to be, but we designed it for seven feet. While they don’t show the other side in the picture, we are leaving the backsplash up to your imagination (we only factored in an island panel to cover it). We also including optional decorative end panels for the back of the island, which you don’t need for the design but add some detailing.
Kitchen Island/Seating Area
With room for a couple of stools this design incorporates both a seating and cooking area with extra storage. Just another example of how creative you can get with your kitchen island. In the picture they show a decorative toe kick, which can be made, but we made it a regular toe kick to make it easy.
Kitchen Island with End Wine Rack
While this is a fairly simple design, it helps to make the most out of the kitchen island without wasting space. In the drawing we incorporated two wine racks, but you could include a plate rack, shelving, or even leave one side open like they did in the picture. The sketch doesn’t show it, but we backed up wall cabinets to the base cabinets on the other side, so you will actually need a filler in between the wine racks if you are doing two of them together.
Staggered Depth Wall Cabinets
This design could be used for any combination, but the reason we liked this look is because most people don’t realize how simply modifying the depth of the wall cabinets can create a completely different look. By staggering the depth of the cabinets, it adds shadow lines and makes it look like a custom build project.
Built in Desk Between Walls
This is a really simple design, but most people don’t consider using kitchen cabinets for something like this. This is perfect for a little nook in a bedroom, or a multi-purpose room where you don’t want to have a desk sticking out. A few simple cabinets and you are ready to start paying bills, doing homework, or working on the computer.
Washer/Dryer and Sink Combo
Whether you have a small condo where space is a precious resource, or you have a large home with a separate space for a laundry room, not many people consider how to incorporate them all using kitchen cabinets. This is a simple design that can easily be scaled into a full laundry room, or laid out to incorporate a tiny studio apartment kitchen. With the popularity of stackable washer/dryer combos on the rise, this is an easy way to incorporate them into any room.
Washer/Dryer and Wet Bar Combo
This washer/dryer combo design is for the multi-functional room or small apartment. This design incorporates a wet bar, stack washer/dryer, mini refrigerator or wine cooler, and plenty of storage for all of your party or laundry supplies.
Kitchen Desk Attachment
With the kitchen being the hub of the home, and more and more technology being integrated into the kitchen, it only make sense that you are going to need a place for your computer. This easy to make desk arrangement, allows for easy access to your computer, a small desk area, and more counter top space.
Wine Rack with Storage Tower
This is a good combination of open shelving, storage space, and display area. Perfect for a wet bar area, entertainment room, or wine bar. We used a combination of cabinets to recreate the look, with the only real carpentry coming from the cubby holes.
Display Hutch with Plate Rack
This design is great for homeowners that want to showcase their fine china or dishware. The combination of mullion doors, with the plate rack, and extra storage about makes a great focal point for a room (especially if you have tall ceilings). We made some modifications to make it work with our cabinet sizes, but you will still get the same dramatic effect. Add the LED lighting that we offer from www.ledundercounterlight.com and it would light up the whole room!
Spice Rack Island
The kitchen island doesn’t just have to be for extra seating or more work space, and this design proves it. By adding some creative spice rack storage, you can have easy access to all your spices, cooking supplies, or even canned goods. The design in the picture has a sink in the island, but you could always put in a cook top as well. This island only has cabinets on one side, but you can always put base cabinets back to back or put wall cabinets on the other side
Pantry and Mini Refrigerator Combo
This design uses some creative detailing to give the kitchen a custom look. While it looks high end, this design can be made out of any of our stock cabinet lines. The high end look comes from decorative filler strips and a unique way to install the crown molding which I would mention in the design below. Using accent under cabinet lighting really helps to accentuate the look. The height of the wall cabinets and the pantry can be adjusted, but for this example we used 30” high wall cabinets.
Refrigerator and Desk Combo
With today’s busy lifestyle, incorporating technology and functionality into the kitchen is a must. While this isn’t a complicated design, it makes good use of the space and adds a desk area to the kitchen that can also be used for food prep or as a work area. This can be accomplished using any of our cabinet styles. For the instructions, we just focused on the refrigerator and desk area.
Double Vanity and Linen Cabinet Combo
While this is a fairly simple design in terms of construction, it is another great way to lay out your bathroom and create a double vanity master bathroom suite. With flanking linen cabinets, two sinks and drawers in the middle, it creates ample storage and countertop space. With this design you have a lot of flexibility with the design, but may be limited on some of the styles that you can use. For the cabinet lines that don’t have linen cabinets, you will have to use pantries (for our design we used pantries). While the image shows a white cabinet line, we used the autumn shaker to configure ours. (Note: Only a few of our bathroom lines have the three drawer cabinet for the middle.)
Washer/Dryer Combo with TV
While simple in design, we really liked this idea because it gives you a way to add some functionality and entertainment to your laundry room. With ample work space, and storage space, this design lets you catch your favorite shows while washing and folding laundry. With the optional storage shelf above, you can add some design elements to the room with some nice baskets, or just add another cabinet for closed storage space. The size of the cabinets will really depend upon the amount of space you have so you can easily substitute any of the sizes in our cabinet lines
Large Kitchen Island with Seating
If you are going for the grand kitchen, this is the island for you! As we designed it below, this island is 72” by 54”, so you will need a lot of space but it features storage for everything you will need in the kitchen. With storage on all sides, seating in the back, and the option for a sink in the middle, this will give you space or work, storage, and seating. The sizes can be adjusted to fit your kitchen, but we tried to replicate the picture as much as possible.
The Oak Collection introduces elegance to economy in kitchen cabinets and the result is striking. The face frames, stiles and rails of this collection are constructed of solid oak, while the raised panels are oak veneered, which gives more stability to the door panel, making it less likely to warp or crack. The Oak Collection also uses Antique English, semi-concealed hinges that highlight its finish.
The Oak Kitchen Cabinet Collection boasts a warm, honey Oak finish that allows the grain of the wood to show through while accentuating the golden tones. The Oak Collection looks best in a traditional, country, rustic, European or French Country kitchen. By adding snazzy, stainless hardware, you can also dress up these cabinets for a more modern appeal, but we love the look of bronze, aged nickel and even brass hardware on the Oak Collection.
We love the versatility of the Oak collection, and most flooring options are on the table. One of our favorites for a classic look is black and white tile checkerboard flooring. Wood floors are also a popular choice, but make sure there is a suitable contrast or complement to the wood finishes. If you prefer white tile flooring or countertops, choose a creamy off-white to bring out the warm wood tones of the Oak Collection.
Black appliances give a more formal look to the kitchen when paired with these cabinets, while stainless steel appliances are a nice contrast. White appliances give a more homey appeal when paired with the Oak Collection and lend a more casual feel to the kitchen. Almost any color palette is suitable for the warm golden Oak finish, but the richer colors will add drama and a bit of formality while the neutrals can take on a more casual tone, the brighter more unusual color palettes will add an urban sophistication to the mix.
We love going country in the kitchen, but if not done properly, it can make a kitchen look outdated. For the new country look, don’t think stencils and country blue geese, try these decorating tips with the Oak kitchen cabinet Collection:
• Think light, bright and airy;
• Mix old and new - vintage kitchen accessories mixed with new stainless appliances bring a casual sophistication to kitchen design;
• Add rustic decorating elements to the mix - natural materials are perfect for decorating the kitchen;
• Antique furniture such as a farmhouse table or distressed kitchen island are perfect with the Oak Collection.
Don’t let the price of the Oak Collection make you think we skimped on quality, there are no particle board pieces in these cabinets, or any RTA kitchen cabinet for that matter. Our door stiles, rails and face frames are of solid Oak while the sides are made of plywood. Each drawer box is dovetailed with ½ inch all wood sides and the back of the drawer is stained to match the color of the cabinets A screwdriver is all it takes to assemble our cabinets, and each cabinet is shipped in its own box for safe shipment and arrival.
The Oak Collection offers a budget-friendly elegance in kitchen cabinetry. Oak is a mainstay in kitchen cabinets, and with its quality construction and timeless appeal, you can be sure these kitchen cabinets will grace your kitchen for years to come.
