Beveled Glass Cupboard -- Program 1506
Hosted by master carpenter Norm Abram, who is legendary for his woodworking skills, The New Yankee Workshop has guided millions of viewers through the hands-on process of furniture making.
Norm has been perfecting his woodworking skills since he was a boy, when he made wooden toys for his sister. Since then, he has also perfected the craft of teaching and inspiring others to make beautiful creations from wood. Working in a 936-square-foot workshop, Norm completes a typical show in two days. He does all the work himself, using an assistant only for cleanup and finishes. Each episode in the series offers step-by-step instructions for building furniture and other woodworking projects. A co-production of Morash Associates, Inc. and WGBH Boston, the series airs on PBS and HGTV stations.
This jewel of a display cupboard will provide attractive storage for any bathroom. The top of the cabinet, with its beveled glass panels and adjustable shelves, is a perfect place to display attractive objects in a protected space. The display top sits on a closed cabinet for more useful storage accessed by means of a flat paneled door. Painted a glistening white and conveniently sized for limited space, this project is a winner.
