I am trying it talk my dh into redoing my sewing room. We remodeled the kitchen and I wanted to use the old wall kitchen cabinets in there. He is going to purchase plywood and cut in half length wise ( it will be 2x8) then he will attach these together to make it 2x16, I will have these on 2 walls. He wants to, build shelves under this but I want the old kitchen cabinets, so we will just have to wait and see.. He will be sanding the plywood nice and smooth then all I want on it is shellac to make it nice and shiny, do not want any stain or color on it. I will take before and after shots so everyone can see the difference.
