DIY corner cabinets from very old wood incorporating a triangular drawer part one.

As an improvement to our dining room which is a little too small for our table (which might be too big for the room) I am building a pair of corner cabinets. The wood I am using was dug up on a construction site roughly 20 years ago after being buried for over a hundred years, sort of a manmade sinker cypress. Also, I have my mind set on building triangular drawers in which I have found little guidance from the University of You Tube. Never stopped me before.

Love how you use the materials you have on hand, the older wood really adds to the cabinets.

They are Sam Maloof knock off’s. He was (is) my furniture hero. Lots of folks selling how to pamphlets with patterns. I went that route 😊
