Adding personality to your new kitchen

Suppose you want an all-new custom kitchen. You want gorgeous cabinets, perhaps with a distressed finish, no blind corners, good design, beautiful counters.

So you go to a local cabinetmaker, one you’ve heard good things about, one that’s been in business for a long time. You go to Cabinets 4 You in Peachtree City.

The new showroom at 301 Kelly Drive is just minutes from its former location on Huddleston. Cabinets 4 You has a new look, and the opportunity to add personality to any kitchen.

The Vanecek family has owned and operated Cabinets 4 You for nearly 18 years in Peachtree City. Recently, Nicole Vanecek began a new aspect of the business, Accessories Plus. Now, anyone coming into the showroom will see what cabinetry design consultant Sherrie Starowicz calls “the total look.“

Vanecek, who holds a bachelor’s degree in interior design, is looking forward to helping Fayette County residents coordinate a look for their home. Her in-showroom consultations will help customers “bring it all together.”

“Our showroom is a new place, with all the things to make a home feel like home,” she said.

She’s personally chosen the lines of dishware, elegant lamps, pot racks and florals to compliment any home. Vanecek emphasizes that she has selections for any taste or budget. “Styles and colors range from gold and burgundy to nautical, roosters to chili peppers.“

Naturally, the Accessories Plus choices at Cabinets 4 You are ideal for kitchens and offices, or anywhere fine cabinets might be used. That fits with the heart of what Cabinets 4 You has been doing for nearly two decades.

“If customers can’t afford the total kitchen rebuild, they may be able to change their look with some select accesssories from our showroom. I’ll be glad to assist them as they make their decisions,” said Vanecek.

Often, though, Vanecek and Sherrie Starowicz expect that their customers who are in the market for a totally remodeled kitchen will take advantage of the accessory options available.

“We’re integrating the accessories and the cabinetry so that people get a realistic view at how the completed kitchen will look,” shared Starowicz. “This should be evident from the time a person enters their new showroom, till they’ve meandered to the back of the new displays.

“We’ve created an ambiance and a feel of an upscale home,” she continued. “This means that someone looking to redesign their kitchen with the latest painted, stained, glazed or distressed finish, can see how it looks in person, with all the finishing touches they might like to include.

Already Starowicz shares that her customers are loving it. “They don’t see anything like it in the area,” she said. “We’re hitting a different niche. I can design them their dream kitchen and Nicole can accessorize it. We’re a one-stop-shop.“
