You thought I forgot all about this little blog, huh? No, I didn’t forget about it. I just ignored my poor blog for months and months and months. But I haven’t ignored our project list – we’ve stayed pretty busy working on all kinds of things. And we’re currently in the middle of a project that is becoming months-long instead of a couple of weeks, which is what we had planned for. Doesn’t that always happen? Want to see what we’ve been working on?
(Please ignore the paint-splattered tile. I wasn’t very careful. Oops.)
Awwwwwh Yeah! After 3 long years, we FINALLY painted our kitchen cabinets. The effect is major – such a huge difference. Remember what our poor kitchen looked like?
On the left is the original kitchen, when we bought the house. The right photo is how the kitchen has looked for the past 3 years.
We’ve obviously still got a long ways to go. On the to-do list: clean the floor!, cut counter tops, stain & seal counter tops, install sink & counter tops, move some electrical outlets, tile the backsplash, and repaint.
Yeah, I’m painting the downstairs again. The 4th time in 3 years. Yowza. I just can’t seem to get the color quite right. The paint now is too muddy blue-gray. I’m leaning towards a greige instead, to balance out all the blue. My current favorites are the 2nd row, the middle and right colors. Any thoughts or opinions?
I’m going to get a few testers and paint some swatches around the room so that I can be 100% sure this time and not have to repaint. Again.
the kitchen looks amazing. well done!
as for the paint, i like the 2nd row middle and the 3rd row first.
oh snap! you figured it out!
