Very nice MC!  I like the shaker style door and drawer fronts.  Did you also happen to use soft close slides and hinge hardware? 

Thanks. Yes I added the soft close. The top cabs are from a kitchen remodel I did 5 years ago. The bottoms are new unfinished. My wife painted them

That looks great.  I always am cautious about doing that for fear of water issues in a basement setting.

It’s a walkout. About half is below grade an we never had a water problem since we have been here.

It was the wife’s decision on the colors I was just the help. :)

Anytime we do something my wife know's the drill. Come back with 3 choices then we will choose from there. If ya ask me to go look at shit the project just will not happen.

I have a entire wall set I pulled from a kitchen rehab on the last house that I painted black and they are hanging in our current garage. In fact I picked up 2 more of the same someone had out for trash pickup a few weeks back. Youngstown are the brand. Top of the line for their time, all had serial numbers stamped on them

Yep...and that still doesn't work.  It's why I'm seemingly always in a state of fucking remodel.  Wife recently decided the corian countertops didn't work for her..so, off they went and into granite......and those spendy fucking countertops went to our local "Materials reclaimation center" where hopefully, somebody can use them.  Now, "the backsplash doesnt look right"  Retardedness.  THIS WAS SUPPOSED TO BE A FUCKING BUILDER SPEC HOUSE UNTIL I FOUND THE RIGHT PROPERTY TO BUILD ON!!!!!   :wall: 

This is why people hit women.  :lmao:Whatever.  She may as well suck the just rest of the life out of me.
