Replacing a Kitchen Sink False Front with a Tip-Out Tray

Does your sink have one of those fake panels that looks like a drawer front but doesn't open? Some cabinetry lines use this space for a tip-out tray, where you can store sponges and scrubbers. But if your kitchen sink base doesn't have one, you can easily retrofit it.

Choosing Lighting Fixtures for Our Midcentury Home
