    as a carpenter may i just say you did an amazing job and let me tell you that the best tip you gave was the cleaning and sanding the cabinet door and the 2 coats of primer because like you said, its laminate and paint wont stick very good on laminate
    So by sanding it a little bit and doing 2 coats of primer, it really helps for the paints to stick on the cabinet
    Great job

      michele lanni Wouldn’t it make sense to sand and prime the door before putting the frame on? I’m not a carpenter, so I’m literally asking, not being sarcastic at all....

    Looks good.
    Only suggestion is when you spread the glue when adding the trim you can get a really strong bond by spreading the glue with a brush in both the door and the back of the wood. This will hold it over time as moisture causes the wood the change shape.
    That said the nails will help it stay in place.
    Thanks for the video.

    Nice idea! Another thing you can do with older cabinets while doing this kind of project is use bondo for patching cracks and chips, etc. it’s very strong and sandable, and since you’re painting it anyway it’s a great way to cover damage. Great job. Thanks for sharing.

  • @jeffreystacks7929

    I did this once in a house I used to own, but instead of using expensive 1/4" poplar, I bought 1/4" luan plywood (basically thin mahogany plywood) and cut it into 2" strips and used that instead. The trick is that you do have to putty up the edges a lot to keep it from looking like you just glued plywood to your doors, but it sands up really nice if you have a belt sander.

    Ms. Nikki, you don't know how long I been looking for something like this. My home is old and you should see the cabinets they made out of old panel wood. Well I had been trying to figure out how to redo my kitchen on a budget and this is the idea I had but men were telling me I couldn't do it. I needed to just buy an entire new kitchen which would cost almost 40,000 at lowes. I said no and kept looking and now I will transform my kitchen as you have shown me how. Thank you so much. I wish I knew people in person to teach me how to use tools, I'd be doing so much more.

For all you DIY’ers most cabinets are bevel or have rounded edges (mine have a big drop) I suggest to bring in wood a little to match right before it curves down (right at edge before slope). It’s what we had to do and so far looks really good! The final out come is dramatic for this video! 👍🤩

    Looks good. I did something similar on a mantle that I built. What looks great is finding a half-round trim of the same depth as your shaker strips. lining the inside with the half-round gives it a smoother transition into the cabinet face and bit of a fancier look. If the cabinet door is bigger you can add a center strip to break it into two trimmed "windows"
