Two installations in one day!

Another custom project completed and installed by Connecticut Yankee Crafts!

This time, we transformed an existing closet space with beautiful natural cherry cabinetry, combining open cubby storage, adjustable shelving, and a dedicated hanging area.

The warm tones and natural grain of the cherry really bring this piece to life, while the custom layout makes the most of the available space.

From kitchens and built-ins to closets and custom furniture, every project is designed and built specifically for our clients.

From the workshop to its new home!

Another custom cabinetry project completed and installed by Connecticut Yankee Crafts!

A few weeks ago, we shared some work-in-progress photos of this build. Today, we’re excited to show off the finished product!

This nearly 10-foot custom built-in features sage green lower cabinetry, contrasting white upper cabinets, and a handcrafted solid maple countertop with walnut and cherry accents.

Behind the doors, you’ll find maple dovetail drawers, soft-close hardware, concealed storage, and adjustable shelving—all designed specifically for the homeowner’s needs.

Projects like this are why we love what we do. Taking an idea, building it from scratch, and seeing it come together in someone’s home never gets old.

A little shop progress on a BIG project…

There’s something pretty satisfying about seeing a pile of lumber and sheet goods slowly turn into this.

This custom cabinetry project is taking shape in the shop—painted overlay cabinetry, maple dovetail drawers, tons of storage, and a custom hardwood countertop featuring maple with walnut and cherry accents.

Still plenty of work ahead before these leave the shop, but this is one of my favorite stages of a build: all the individual pieces finally starting to look like the finished project we envisioned.

Built from scratch. Built to fit. Built right here in Connecticut. 🇺🇸

Stay tuned for the finished product!

A little before & after story…

A friend brought us this older handmade piece that had unfortunately become a favorite chew toy for their puppy. The legs had taken the worst of it, and the piece had definitely seen better days.

But there was plenty worth saving.

We kept the character of the original piece, rebuilt the carcass and legs, refinished everything, and gave it a new lease on life—all while keeping those original porcelain k***s that give it so much personality.

Sometimes custom woodworking isn’t about building something brand new. Sometimes it’s about taking something that’s been around for years and making it worth keeping for many more.

Never too late to turn something old into something new.
