I need MANY ideas on how to make some inexpensive, recessed medicine cabinets.

We aren't very carpenter-smart, but can handle simple projects. We have a dbl vanity in master bath with one large mirror. I want more storage so I want 2 LARGE recessed med cabinets...with wood frames. The price of a really large one is outrageous...and I need 2...so trying to fig out an easy way to make them ourselves.......

    These are pretty simple to construct with basic hand tools. Depending if the cabinets are going to be hidden behind the mirrors with them being put into frames and hinged all your building is a box with a back attached. Paint it real good. Install some adjustable shelves and your good to go.

    If your thinking of having doors, you can purchase at some home centers if not on line, pre manufactured cabinet doors that you can use for the doors, then simply construct the four sides to fit ...»

    the drawers and nail on a back out of plywood.

    You can get fancy and all, but a simple box out of 1/2 inch by four inch wide popular is all you need for the frame. Cut square, use some glue and small screws or nails. Pre-drill the holes on the ends so the wood does not split. A good quality paint job and your good to go.
