Lily Kitchen cabinets
 
We just moved into our new home and love it (at least what isn't covered in boxes!) but can't figure out what to do with the upper kitchen cupboard in the corner. The bottom cabinets have a lazy susan, but the top ones are so wide in the back and narrow in the front that it's hard to use it for anything. If anyone has any suggestions on what they did, I sure would appreciate it.

I have a lazy susan in my upper. Maybe you can take out the shelves & put a lazy susan in it. I use it for all my spices, etc.

You could also buy single level lazy susan thingy at Bed Bath & Beyond. They come in 12 and 18 inch sizes.

Need Moulding
 
We have Merillat Cabinets in our Wisteria. We are looking to purchase more "Scribe" moulding. Maple Toffee is the color we need. We are in need of about 35 feet. I found 2 8ft pieces on top of the cabinets (left by the builder) anyone else have some I can purchase?

We have the same thing. It will be nice to see if anyone comes up with something. Seems like wherever you live, there's always a cabinet that is almost useless. I have been trying to find a pull out shelf that drops down for over the microwave and possibly over the pantry. I saw this set-up on a HGTV show "Holmes on Homes". He did it for a lady that was wheelchair bound. The cabinet over the fridge is also a nearly useless space because you can't reach it. Lets see what people come up with.:wave::wave:

We're having pull out drawers installed in the pantry and over the fridge. We got a card from The Villages welcome lady, for Custom Drawers at 352-394-6189. Marla came out and gave us an estimate, and no deposit was required. She does the work based on our word that we want them! Wednesday is installation day, and if I'm as happy as I think I'll be, I'm going to get them to replace the shelf in our bottom cabinets. Our cabinets have pull outs on the bottom, but the shelf above is another almost useless space. More pull outs should help with the rest of my storage problems for all my pots & pans. Going to check out the lazy susan suggestion for that corner cupboard.

We had those useless half shelves in the bottom cabinets taken out and had pull out drawers installed in there as well as under the sink. So now we have double pull outs in each bottom cabinets and in the island.
