No, I am not referring to the brand that makes such amazing kitchen gadgets. I am referring to the much needed aid that has been shown to our kitchen. I am finally ready to show the before and after pictures. After our master bedroom, it is my favorite place in our house (it had better be, after all of the sweat equity we put into this room)!
Pretty awful.
I'm still a little shocked I wanted to buy this house after seeing these cabinets.
Check out the carpet stains! YUCK.
What should have been a beautiful morning (and I'm sure was)...
was just way too pink.
Getting there...still with the nasty old microwave, no cabinet hardware, and NASTY carpet.
The cabinets are done...oops! What about the kickboards!?
In comes Kim to save the day (tiling + 32 weeks pregnant = insanity).
Glad to have such amazing friends.
TA-DA! This used to be our dining room table...we upgraded, and it is now the table for our breakfast nook.
Our tile floor! LOVE it...but I doubt I will ever DIY again when it comes to tile.
I spy pink! We didn't paint behind the fridge...no one will ever see it.
Except everyone who sees this blog.
Hi Dann :) LOVE the new lights.
On the wall, if you can't see it clearly - a tribute our dogs, both past and present.
Raisins, sugar, flour, chickpeas....
Random, but all great to have around.
I can't end without thanking a couple great people. Kim and Aaron Dold, who taught us all there is to know about tiling, giving up a precious weekend before their baby comes - you are so wonderful, and we owe you big time. And my mother. She is a saint and a half. Thank you for all the days you spent priming, painting, and stripping (wallpaper, that is), and consoling when I lost my mind.
On to another project...
