Thank YOU!!! It is both a thrill and quite nerve racking at the same time. So much to do, so little time in the day Like the Sierra Towers, putting all the pieces in place with the centers has been a challenge. From crossovers to designing the packaging, so many little details.
For example, I thought we were all set with regard to the centers last Friday and then Dina asked me if I had ordered the labels... Ooops, not only had I forgotten to order product and serial number labels, we did not even design the artwork yet. Luckily, we get all of our printing from a dear friend of mine so we were able to get things moving quickly So many little details
We handled things a bit differently this time. We spent a lot of time in the previous production run inspecting and pairing up the cabinets. Since this is real wood, every cabinet is somewhat unique so we pair them up so that they are cosmetically matched. This time, we took care of all of this at the cabinet builder's facility, in addition to finding any flaws that needed touching up etc. This will be a huge time saver for us
Our natural finish is not really "unfinished". The natural bamboo finish has many layers of sealer that must be applied to the raw wood. The sealer, besides protecting the wood, brightens up the finish and draws out the grain. Trust me on this, the completely unfinished cabinet really does not look too good by itself -- very washed out and inconsistent with regard to hue.
