The decade of the 1980s brought change to kitchen design. Because kitchen ventilation improved tremendously, homes could now feature a more open format because cooking smells would not enter other living areas, and thus the kitchen became more of a room in which to live. The trend of having guests come into the kitchen was a new phenomena, and kitchen designers used this to revamp the ways that kitchens looked and functioned. In later decades, seating areas, sometimes as a bar with stools, became more common as a way to integrate entertaining in with cooking. Cooking became more a creative rather than work pursuit, and this aided in the changes to kitchen design.
After marking where you want the cabinet to go, all you need to do is use a specially designed saw to cut away the wall. Once your hole is cut, simply attach the curio cabinet using the instructions provided with your cabinet. Once the cabinet is in the wall, it's easy to install the shelf systems so you can beautifully display your keepsakes. There are many different styles and types of curio cabinets to choose from - the hard part will be deciding which you like best.
We start with the base. Cabinets which rest on the floor are supported by some kind of a base. This base could be an entirely enclosed base, scrolled based, bracketed feet or it could be a set of legs. Next are the adjustable feet that can be secured to the bottom of the cabinet by having the leg base screwed onto the cabinet bottom. This can also be attached by means of a drill through the cabinet bottom at definite locations. With these adjustable feet, the cabinets are no longer scribed to the floor for leveling. These adjustable feet help you minimize the problem of depressed parts on the floor. Also they come in much variation depending on the type of furniture it is being used. There are also anti-vibration mounts, which lessens tremors that cause disruption and extreme damages.
Built In Curio Cabinets: Some cabinets can be easily built into your walls so that they look like they were especially designed for your home. While many people think installing these built in cabinets is difficult, it really isn't. Before deciding on a built in cabinet, make sure you have a wall that can handle the installation. To do this, you'll need a stud finder to make sure you're not installing the cabinet where a stud will be in the way.
Shelf systems for cabinets are made out of glass that's sturdy enough to hold all your keepsakes. Many cabinets come with a standard number of shelves, but you should be able to order more if you need them. Some cabinets also come with a mirrored display back to create a beautiful, duplicate display area for items such as small statues or vases that have a back that you'd like to be visible. If you're displaying china or something with a back that's not meant to be seen, choose a standard backing that matches the finish of your cabinet.
