Welcome to Kitchen Cabinets Serr!
I’m Maya Serr, a passionate DIYer, full-time homeowner, and part-time cabinet fixer-upper based in the U.S. If you’re here, chances are you love kitchens too, their quirks, their charm, and the feeling of walking into a space that finally feels like you.
So, how did this blog start?
Like most things in my life, it started with a mess: my grandma’s 1970s kitchen. Lopsided drawers, faded doors, squeaky hinges,
I figured I’d just replace a few knobs. Instead, I fell head-first into sanding, staining, painting, and refacing… and discovered I loved it.
One afternoon, covered in sawdust and laughing at a crooked drawer I’d just installed, I thought, “Why isn’t more of this online, the real stuff?”
What You’ll Find Here
At Kitchen Cabinets Serr, I share:
DIY kitchen cabinet projects (the ones that worked… and the ones that didn’t)
Budget-friendly cabinet upgrades
Honest advice for real homes, not glossy showrooms
Personal stories, small victories, and yes, the occasional cabinet catastrophe
I write for people like me, maybe you’re in your 30s or 40s, balancing kids, work, and dreams of a cozier kitchen. You’ve probably Googled, “What paint hides fingerprints?” or “Should I reface or replace?” I’ve been there.
Why Trust Me?
Because I’m not here to sell you a $20K remodel. I’m here to say:
“I tried it.”
“It worked.”
“Here’s how you can do it too, without hiring a crew or breaking the bank.”
My friends tease me for owning way too many paint swatches. I’ve misaligned hinges, over-sanded doors, and learned the hard way that not all wood filler is created equal. And every single mistake taught me something worth sharing.
Let’s Fix It, Together
Whether you’re painting your cabinets for the first time or comparing pull-out organizers on a $100 budget, I’m right there with you. This blog isn’t polished or perfect, just honest, helpful, and written by someone who’s learned by doing.
So pull up a stool, grab a cup of coffee, and let’s make your kitchen feel like home, one cabinet at a time.
