Wowzers! Love the crew, and with all your current pics one would never think you started with land that raw and barren. What a fantastic journey.

They are the cutest crew there ever was!
It's amazing how things can transform over 35 years time.

I've been working on the design for the cabinet in our bathroom. Think I've finally settled on how I want it built. Hubs has decided he won't build the doors. That will make the job of building them much easier. He has the templates for building them, but it takes a lot of time to set up, then cutting, sanding, gluing, clamping, more sanding, you get the picture...lol
This is the, I think, final layout, could and will probably be some tweaks between now and then. Just a rough draft.
Cabinets on the right and left, I think those will be a single door, made to look like 2 with 2 or 3 adjustable shelves, open shelves in between , 4 drawers and laundry hampers on the bottom. I want 3 separate hamper drawers, but I think hubs is going to make a single drawer, we'll see...lol, whichever it is, I will love it. We both have ideas and try to meet in the middle, but, bottom line is that he's the one that figures out the best way to build it and sometimes what works best, trumps my plans. This will add some much needed storage and organisation.
Now I can think more about the built in dresser. We already have ideas on that. Set of drawers with a built in shelf above. We will have an outlet in there and maybe a light. There is already power for it, we had a light in our shower. It will be easier to lay out. Just not put to paper yet. I think he will build the dresser first, but I'm not sure.
Hope we can get this all done before spring arrives.
Need to go check on the girls and get ready to go to town again.

Thank you! I've spent a lot of time thinking about it and looking at existing cabinets. I had something else drawn up with the open shelves running horizontal, but it just wasn't clicking and coming together until I changed to the vertical shelves.
