Crestwood

Michelle had the opportunity to attend a training seminar with Crestwood Cabinetry and Salina, Kansas. Crestwood is a green company committed to the environment in more ways than one. Not only do they focus on sustainable site selection, water and energy efficiency, but also the conservation of materials and resources and environmental quality. Crestwood is also FSC certified. FSC is a non-profit organization that promotes the responsible management of the world’s working forest. Crestwood actually uses the sawdust from the cabinets to heat their building during the winter months.

During the seminar, Michelle had the opportunity to go through the factory process and create her own cabinet door. She sanded the wood, distressed the wood by hand using various tools, and selected the finish for her cabinet door. Crestwood has different grades of cabinets; some are created by hand and others are done by machine.
The event was well worth the trip to Kansas. During this seminar, Michelle learned about the different processes and how the cabinets are created in a fun, hands on way! Michelle’s Interiors is now a Crestwood dealer and very proud of it!
