How to Upgrade
Your Cabinet Ends

-Add Simple Wood Trim for a Custom Look

I have a quick and easy way to show you how to upgrade your builder-grade cabinet ends and give your kitchen a high-end custom look; with just a few tools and about 20$, you can make your cabinet look custom-built.

What You Will Need

1/4-in x 2-ft x 4-ft Plywood Underlayment

The luan provides a full end from the bottom of the cabinet to the top of the floor to eliminate the builder-grade gap.
 

Poplar Board 1/4-in x 1-1/2-in x 4-ft

Cut to size, nail with finishing nails. I used my Craftsman Nail Gun which has made my life so much easier!!
Next, add corner trim to finish it out, 
I got mine from Lowes, one cut, and it was complete. Sanding the wood is crucial to prep for a smooth paint/ stained finish. After that, all that is left is to caulk holes and dry and paint!
I am so pleased with the way these turned out and for about 40$ for both exposed ends of our kitchen island. I plan to complete two more exposed ends with a little more trim. I was limited to this design due to the outlets in the middle. Stay tuned for the next upgrades.
