I saw this idea on a blog recently, I WISH I could remember where it was cause I'd love to show you the photo that inspired me, but anyway, here is the before of my cabinet over the fridge. You know the one ... it's so high and unreachable that it's virtually a waste. I know that whatever I put in it cannot and will not be reached on a regular basis. Because of the height of our fridge I actually have to get on a chair in order to reach anything in this cabinet ... so anyway, here's what I did ...
Removed the doors, put up pretty contact paper, and filled it up with pretty things!
Isn't it SO much better?! I'm still playing around with the placement of everything but for now I like it as it is...
My only gripe ... well, OK two gripes - first, that center post that just feels in the way. But I don't want to take it out in case we ever decide we want the doors back on. {or when we sell the house}. And second, the contact paper keeps falling down on me! Does anyone have a good trick to keep it in place?
I SOOOO want to take the doors off another cabinet now and have open shelving for my white dishes but hubby says no ... {for now at least!} =)

I've been debating doing this over my stove....I keep all my cookbooks there and think it would be so much easier having it opened. I think you just inspired me to start a project;)
Awesome idea, Kathy! Looooooove it :)
