Latest Trend - Bamboo Cabinetry
Thursday, September 25, 2008
Bamboo flooring is all the rage. In fact, I'm installing it in my house this weekend. Everyone loves the sustainable aspect of using bamboo for their floors. It looks good but it's also considered a very green material.What you haven't thought about is that you can use the same material for your cabinets. Yes, the same bamboo plant that can be crafted into planks for your floor can also be used to make cabinets for your kitchen.
Bamboo? Really? Seriously?
Bamboo is not a wood. It's really a grass. And it grows like crazy. It's almost considered a weed in some parts of the country. This means that you can feel happy about the idea that you're not destroying a tall tree that took decades to grow to make your cabinets.
Sustainability is more than just a home improvement buzzword these days. It's here to stay. Some will pay any amount to lower their impact on the planets natural resources. But many more will go with the green product if the prices are comparable. And bamboo cabinets are priced right.
The nice about using this cabinet material is that it's very durable. More durable than most hardwoods. There are a variety of colors available, too. The lighter, natural blond color is most popular today, but no matter what you choose... you'll have an exotic look in your kitchen that everyone will be talking about.
It might be next for my kitchen, but for now - - I need to concentrate on installing my bamboo floors. Pictures and details on the project to follow soon!
