Hello to all our fans out there from WS & M. Let’s set the English Pub aside for a moment and take a one question multiple-choice quiz. Question: What do you do when you purchase an appliance that is a tad taller than the last and there is a stupid cabinet in the way? So, what do you do? Answer One: First you just curse, maybe even go into a stroke causing rage. Of course, it does not solve the problem, but it does relieve some stress and if said loud enough it teaches your great niece or great nephew a new word or two. Answer Two: You get a smaller appliance but that is not really what you wanted, and every time you look at it you curse again. Answer Three: You keep your supersized metal monument, remove the cabinet that is in the way, fill that great big gaping void with all the stuff you never use, then sometime down the road you elegantly camouflage it with a home spun curtain you made with remnants, courtesy of Joann Fabrics. Answer Four: You contact Woodshop and More. Ding, Ding, Ding, Ding Ding. Right answer!
In this case, we were able to take one of the old pickled oak cabinet doors, make a valance panel replicating some of the original details, then custom wash and stain it to match. We were even able to add some golden pecan stain, so it looks as aged as the rest. Presto, problem solved. You have the appliance you wanted, you have a fine-looking affordable solution to the problem, but most importantly you have a Happy Wife! So, the next time your yahoo turns into a snafu, call who?
