The Kitchen

In an effort to get moved in to this house sooner rather than later I called in the big guns... i.e. a contractor to come take care of the kitchen. Sanding, painting, and priming cabinets is not something I want to spend months doing.
 
Here is what the kitchen looked like before...




Cabinets are getting painted and new hardware.
There will be new countertops, sink, and faucet.
The kitchen will no longer be yellow.
 
Should be done in the next couple of weeks!

EDIT: The cabinets are painted!

Now before any of you wood purists out there start to freak out that I painted over wood, these were not in good shape and much better off painted. Also, in restoring a house I chose to go with a look that would have been common in the 1940s when the house was built.



Countertops will be a dark mahogany color, porcelain sink, and bronze faucet.


I'm loving this backsplash choice!



EDIT: Here it is in all of its glory! A finished kitchen. There is still a little finishing that I have to do on the backsplash but you get the idea!

 
 



Eric would be an excellent "Price is Right" showgirl.


You know you're an adult when you buy a $300 kitchen sink with no regrets!
