[quote=Anonymous]Check out Gardenweb's kitchens forum; most of these people are doing kitchen renovations that probably cost more than my house, but there is a dedicated minority of folks who have DIYd it, sometimes using Ikea or other ready-to-assemble cabinets, sometimes scavenging via CL, Habitat stores, etc. There are some amazing kitchens done this way - stuff that really looks high end. It helps if you have DIY skills, and if you're willing to paint older cabinets (which can take a lot of time and effort to do right.) Also, I've seen recommendations for some DC area place that often has great materials ala Habitat stores - it's called Community Forklift. Haven't been there but it sounds like a place worth checking out. One last tip - look at Green Demolitions website. It's NJ based, I think, but sells "recycled" kitchens often at a great price. The Gardenweb crowd claims that the shipping costs aren't necessarily as insane as I"d presume.[/quote]
