Mini Remodel Update

Sand… Prime... Prime… Paint…Paint… Clear…Clear…Clear….Clear…

What better time of year when it is negative temps outside, than to repaint the kitchen and cabinets.

I love my Spanish Red kitchen, but with adding two very well amish made pantry's (Thanks Wilbur in Emma, IN) it was very hard to match the color of stain. So what better time to update and give a much needed facelift. 

We started by taking out the cabinets out above the  counter and making it more useful, prep space and breakfast bar



Really opened things up.
We then took those cabinets and moved then over above others for extra storage. You can never have to much storage. Especially in a small house.
This shows the "snack pantry".

This is the larger pantry "AHHHHH"!!

Eventually a new microwave will be above the stove.  
Now to sand, prime, paint and clear coat 34 cabinet doors.

We have chosen the middle gray for walls and bottom right for the blue/grey for cabinets.
So far…..


Slowly, but surly, we are getting there.
I'll be so happy when I am able to share the before and after pictures.
It is very time consuming, but, it is going to be so worth it. (at least that is what I keep saying)….

HAPPY MONDAY FOLKS!! It still may be cold outside, (3 degrees) but, at least the SUN is SHINING!!!

Thanks for checking in…
