New Pullouts

Ron Stanfield's brother, Chris, is a carpenter by trade.  He is amazingly good.  He, however, is retired and doesn't hire out and do jobs anymore except for his family.  A few years ago I had him build me a shoe rack for my closet and put two rows of shelves in there as well.  I also had him build a large cabinet to go downstairs to house all my journals, pictures, etc.  I have wanted some pullout drawers in my kitchen but didn't think Chris did that kind of work.  Come to find out, he put some new ones in Judy's kitchen.  So I called him and asked if he would want to do some for me and he said he would.  I was thrilled.  He came over, measured the cupboards I wanted changed to pullouts and a week later came and installed them.  I LOVE them.  Why I've waited this long to have them done?  Just never thought it might be possible in the tight space between the island and the cupboards.  But he did it.  We have one more area that he is going to do for me.  He is working on it now.  This is the pullouts that he finished the other day.

All done and ready to use.  You do lose a little bit of space so there were a couple items that wouldn't fit there.  One was my 8 quart pressure cooker that I haven't used for years.  I took it downstairs.  Not ready to give it up quite yet.  The other item was my food processor.  That I use probably once or twice every couple months or so.  I found another place for it in another cupboard.  Everything else fit perfectly and I already love them.  I don't have to get on my hands and knees to get things out of the back of the cupboard anymore.
