    Love these cabinets. I would use the paint you have. The dark navy would look great, but would show all the saw dust, and dirt.

    That trick you did clamping the flat boards underneath the 2x4s to set the boards on while you screwed them to the back supports was brilliant and did not go unnoticed! I have filed that away to use when I’m working on some thing by myself. Which is how I do everything. Lol.

    I love the Cyberspace paint color and have used it myself, but I agree with others. It would show dust and wear and tear more. The light gray would be perfect. Great job!

    If I was your nosy neighbor, I’d be driving by every day sneaking peeks at your latest project. I’d be like, “My law, what’s that woman up to now?” Lol
    It’s looking so good!! I love your bench for the miter saw. I would use the lighter color paint. Partly because it uses up what you already have but also because it will show less dust.

  • @jenw5854
    @jenw5854 11 місяців тому +2

    This is exactly the project we need for our garage. I liked how you broke it down into manageable steps. I’d use the paint you have in hand. I think the lighter color will be more garage friendly in the long run.

  • @theresaevans7523
    @theresaevans7523 11 місяців тому +2

    I think the lighter color would look better. It wouldn’t clash with the color of the back door. It’ll make the space feel bigger. I love the way you built the cabinets. I might do that to my she shed/shop lol. I can’t wait for the finished product.

  • @tanyataylor1630
    @tanyataylor1630 11 місяців тому +4

    Cabinet turned out great. Being a female woodworker, I would suggest you use the gray as the cabinet color. I love the dark but can tell you it is going to show the saw dust and hand prints more than the gray.

  • @ladikmk
    @ladikmk 11 місяців тому +1

    That looks so great Kelsey! I'd stick with the light grey color for the cabinets. In addition to not showing the saw dust and dirt like others have already mentioned, it would blend into the walls better and make the garage interior look visually larger. Are you going to put some handles on the doors so you don't get lots of fingerprints on them? I really like how your garage update turned out; so nice!

  • @AnnikenKivlok1233

  • @diannerempel8262

  • @haroldkendra7283
    @haroldkendra7283 2 місяці тому

    I’m a little “late” to advise you on the color for the cupboard paint, but as a quilter who uses the garage with a small group of friends, we need light for sewing anyway we can get it. Go with a light color to give yourself the boost that reflected light can provide. The darker colors will show the “oops” right away, and as you said yourself, these cupboards are going to be taking abuse because they are in a garage. I was very happy to find your video. Your DIY project was EXACTLY what I was looking for to have built in our garage soon! Thank you for all the tips-they will be put to good use!

  • @lindaroyal8161
    @lindaroyal8161 11 місяців тому

    Nice shelves, very practical, sturdy and they look good!
    VOTE - paint color - I like the paint you used in the bathroom, the darker color. Since it's a "working garage" it will show less dirt, smudges, etc. than the lighter color. However - the lighter color will allow more light to bounce around to better work on projects. It's a toss up!
    Suggestion - hopefully the cabinets you removed, you're going to use on the other wall. The one narrow cabinet could go above the fridge and the others on that 3rd wall. Sill have room toward the door to hanging items, ladder etc. and room under the cabinets for more organization. It's looking good.

  • @andreajohnson6659

  • @lesliealexpilotti
    @lesliealexpilotti 11 місяців тому +1

    Looks amazing! The dark would look awesome but definitely show every spec of sawdust. Maybe the lighter color with cool handles for the doors or even trim on the doors could be cool. Whatever you choose will look great for sure!

  • @SaeSo83
    @SaeSo83 11 місяців тому +2

    I think the paint that you already have. Definitely budget friendly plus the much lighter color will help bounce light around the garage. Can't go wrong with a well lit work area ☀

  • @katiemagdziarz

  • @Nanasews4

  • @carolinebrown7458
    @carolinebrown7458 11 місяців тому +1

    Looks great. You do more by yourself than most do with help. Keep it lighter. The dark paint will be a dust collector in the garage. Will look dirty all the time.

  • @annaarrington

  • @kassandramarie007
    @kassandramarie007 11 місяців тому

    It looks great! I would definitely go with the darker color and possibly paint your miter station the same color so it’s all cohesive. The only thing that might stand out is the color of your garage door. So maybe painting the garage door that gray paint that you found on hand if you go with the darker color for the built-ins.

    Iove ❤ love ❤ love ❤ these cabinets! Our garage is big and we have metal shelving racks hanging from the ceiling for outdoor holiday decor. Underneath these shelves we have tons of space. We need to install insulation first, then built in cabinets, but I've decided to buy gently used armoires and mount them to the walls. For paint storage, holiday decor and handyman tools. I also want to store my vacuums , excess cleaning supplies in here. I dont have alot of storage for large vacuums and supplies in my home. This is a great idea! We might do this if we cant find armoires for cheap or free. I only have 1 right now. Thank you for another ❤wonderful vlog!

  • @engineerknelle
    @engineerknelle 11 місяців тому

    Love these garage cabinets you built! As for the paint color for these cabinets, I would use what you have and go with a lighter paint color. Going with a darker paint color, in a space that is subjected to a lot more dust, you will see the dust on the dark cabinets. If a dusty cabinet doesn’t bother you, going with a darker cabinet would look great too.. Best of luck! Can’t wait see the end results. 😊

    Phenomenal job as always. I was worried when you took down the upper cabinets by yourself! One of my sisters and brother-in-law built something similar for my mom back in 1996. One side was the broom closet with a cupboard above it. One side was for sleeping bags to hang up. Behind the sleeping bags was the beach chairs and card table that was accessed from the end (side). I'd use the paint you already have. Navy is my jam but like others have said, it will show all the dust. I forgot that when I painted my end tables navy!
