Island Girl Salvage: My Cabinet Project Updated

Philosophy

For us we have always had a firm belief not only in the preservation of these bygone architectural beauties, but in the notion that we are an integral part of reducing the waste that will eventually head to a landfill.

Island Girl Salvage believes that we can reuse, revive and reinvent each item so that it can be incorporated into any décor. We see outstanding possibilities in the use of these unique pieces in new construction, furniture building, and any remodeling project... and anything else the imagination can conjure.

It may not always be the first thing you think of when you hear the word recycle but the architectural salvage industry is doing just that. Not in the traditional sense but there is no doubt about it this is recycling.

My Cabinet Project Updated

I have gotten the shutter resized and primed. I will be painting and hoping that paint covers a multitude of sins. Can I just say that painting shutters is not much fun, getting in between the slats without clumping the paint is harder than I thought. I have been rather taken with the variety of orange paint colors while this will in no way match anything in my office. Here are some pics of the work in progress. This will hopefully work on the cabinet below as a door.
