    I'm so happy that you are back! I love how this turned out. We did the same thing in our bathroom when we remodeled our bathroom. We've had it for 11ish years now and it has held up great. If you ever have issues with the drawers dragging and sticking (because they eventually will because of the high humidity environment) use some bees wax or white candle wax to rub on the rails and the bottom of the drawers where they make contact with the rails. Makes them slide effortlessly!
