Remodel


We have been slowly remodeling our kitchen. We put in new counter top surrounding the island, new sink, new faucet, plumbed in a gas line for a new gas stove top and new double ovens. We also stained the floors a darker color and put a new banister to the stairs going downstairs. This week we had the cabinets painted white and the island painted black. I picked a little off white (Swiss coffee-behr)--but after it was done it looks very very white. Maybe I just need to get used to it. This is a picture of our house right before they painted. I had to empty everything from the cabinets and put them in the family room.
Going through that pile was the worse part of the remodel, but it forced me to get rid of, sort and organize everything in the kitchen. Now the insides of the cabinets look as good as the outside. I am going to be more careful what I pick up at yard sales this summer. :) I will post a after picture soon.
