Here's the kitchen!!!!

Finished enough that I'm willing to put up pictures like I promised.



I still want to paint the area under the cabinets and behind the stove, green like the walls. I wasn't sure if it would work, so I tested it on the other wall by the fridge first (you'll see it in the next picture), it works, (and I think it looks good,) so I'll do that next weekend.





Ok, so we are off to Austin for a few days!
Catch ya when we get back... I may even post pics with the girl in them!

~Till next time!

Here's some pics of the almost finished project

So this is the new look of the front entry and hallway. I need to paint that rack thing that is in the corner of the landing... I just don't know what color yet, right now its a cherry wood finish. I'm also hanging something on the wall next to the window, I just haven't found what it is yet.







I'm not quite done w/ the kitchen, but it should be ALL finished over the weekend! The upper section of the cabinet frames and the fronts of the doors have been glazed, I need to paint and glaze the bottom section frame, doors and drawers. I'm hoping that Lovey will let me do some painting today so that I can glaze tomorrow and then on Friday we can install. All of the cabinets will need a clear protective finish, but I'm not supposed to do that until at least a week after the glazing. But I just can't live with everything all over the place anymore, so the finish will have to go on w/ all the doors hung.

It still feels the same.

It's been 4 years, but it still feels like yesterday... only worse this year.
I knew it would.

Ok, I finished the trim

in the front entryway and the hall. After I clean up, I'll take some pictures and post them for you.
I'm hoping to do the glaze on the cabinets tomorrow.

We interrupt this makeover...

to bring you CRAPPY weather!!!
The temperature has been in the mid to upper 70's the past few days with tons of humidity. I can't paint or do the glazing with the humidity so high. Some storms blew in this afternoon and brought in a cold front, so hopefully I'll be able to get my project completed by the weekend so hang in there.

~til next time!
