Behind The Scenes
Last week, I went out on a photo shoot at a beautiful home in Walnut Cove, near Asheville, NC. We got so carried away with snapping pictures in the kitchen that I forgot to get a few with my iPhone, which I really like to do. I just can’t explain how much fun taking pictures can be when the lighting is just right. It saves us so much time during the processing phase because, after all, we are just amateurs.
Here is a close-up of the desk we did at Walker Woodworking. Yes, this finish is very detailed and requires precise attention to get it just right, but overall, it adds character to the desk.
This area was small and difficult to photograph. I was able to get a close-up with my iPhone – this antiqued glass is fantastic. It has gold and burnt orange coloring that looks great with the black cabinets.
Here’s a sneak peek of the kitchen – we will have these photos added to our website very soon. You will be able to view the entire project and all the unique details our custom cabinetry has to offer.
It’s always a treat for us to get out of the office and see the final product of our cabinets in the setting of a beautifully furnished home. We get to actually enjoy time with the homeowner in their environment, rather than in our office, always working and discussing details.

There is a reason why so many designers and homeowners opt to use quarter sawn white oak in their projects. It provides the durability and resilience they require in their cabinet performance, but also gives any area in the home an exquisite look rarely found in other wood species.
By having your trash can conveniently stored in a pull-out cabinet, you can avoid running back and forth with the garbage and eliminate a dripping mess on the floor. Custom cabinetry allows you to create a pullout that is just right for the size of the trash can.
There are three basic categories of kitchen cabinets: custom cabinets, stock cabinets, and semi-custom cabinets. Each category has its pros and cons. Knowing how to choose the best cabinet can help secure long-term benefits.
When you think of oak cabinetry, what do you envision? Probably a kitchen in an older home with lighter-toned cabinets and all of the “typical oak” graining showing on every door and drawer.
A deep cleaning of your new kitchen may indeed be due every few months. However, the most beneficial cleaning tasks can be done every few days to help your kitchen remain beautiful and functional for years to come.
