My laundry room ceilings are not flat, and my cabinets are- and they are very close together. How would y’all fill in that space?

How to fill in a gap between oak cabinets and granite?
Comments (1)Now that you have this situation, the best thing is to run a piece of thin, flat scribe molding on the face of the cabinets against the bottom of the stone. This is my opinion only that follows. On my jobs, if the cabinets are not level whem I measure and make templates, I require the cabinets to be corrected. I have only lost two jobs in over 8 years due to my insistence on this. There are too many risks for breakage if the tops are not shimmed properly on out of level cabinets. Yes, I have been accused of being a pain in the rear about this. A good top installation is directly affected by the quality of the surface it is being installed on. Some will disagree and say that this method of what I call excessive shimming is fine. I'm just not willing to stake my reputation on someone else's shoddy cabinet installation....See MoreHow would you fill this space?
Comments (19)Sorry I didn't post the other areas....here they are. The hutch/china cabinet were separated for the move. I looked and looked for a tv credenza but didn't find any I thought would go. Then I saw on Pinterest how people took old china cabinet tops and put them on legs so did this until I find a credenza I like. We bought this set in 1981 when we got married...it is solid and better made than what I could buy today so decided to keep it. We redid the handles...it originally had teeny gold handles. Oh, sorry for junk on DR table....am about to make chair covers. LR furniture/art/rug will be replaced in a few years....not crazy about the charcoal sofa/chairs anymore but living with it for now. Thanks for all the suggestions....See MoreFilling space between Cabinets and ceiling with Soffit
Comments (1)Hello Guys. Wonder if anyone has had experience installing soffit (wall between cabinet and ceiling) or seeing anything similar to an arrangement like this with difference cabinet heights? im mainly concerned about the corner cabinet. The idea is to replace the microwave with a range hood and vent that up and to the right. It would be exiting the home above the tall cabinet next to the window. I would need to cover this area potentially with soffit. roof ventilation is not an option...See MoreHow best to fill the space above cabinets with decor?
Comments (30)"No one has mentioned so far that the dust that shows up above kitchen cabinets is GREASY dust. Super yucky, and hard to get off." Gas stoves are the worst for this...but my experience was it only appeared directly above the stove. For sure the type of hood/ventilation one has would make a huge difference. I just packed #1DDs kitchen for a move to a new home. The open shelving above the stove top was GROSS along with everything on it. No where else. My crystal, described earlier in this thread, was never greasy. Here in our 'forever' home I have a soffit that holds a set of God Bless America plates. They get cleaned once a year and the only ones with any grease are directly above the electric stove top, and it's not a big deal. Dawn soap is your friend!!...See More
