My curtains are two panels each so four total hems left and right side of each panel which equal six extra inches.
Curtains instead of cabinet doors.
Remember to add 1 5 to 2 times the cabinet width.
I love the soft look of it.
You d need a heavy duty staple gun or you could also use upholstery staples kind of like u shaped nails.
Then allow for 3 4 or so for each hem.
Leaded glass and stained glass are traditional solutions but industrial windows and doors can create a similar effect though in a much more contemporary way.
There s an easy way to reduce the cost.
No we re not talking open shelving.
The extra amount for gathers was 20 which fell between 1 5 and two times greater than my cabinet width.
Wire mesh and screens can actually be very attractive especially in a farmhouse style home where the mesh or screen will give the kitchen a country feel.
When you opt for this door alternative you can rest assured that there will be airflow in and around the dishes that you have stored in your cabinet.
Cabinet width 30 this measurement is more flexible.
Instead hang curtains you could use some leftover fabric from a failed.
Fold the top of the curtain around the strip so it s hidden from the front then staple or nail the strip and the part of the curtain that will be behind it onto the face frame of your cabinet.
I have used curtains as doors for years it softens sound and i like the look.
And then there are etched glass screens awnings and more.
Reminds me of my grandmother.
