Kitchen Cabinets

Another great project completed!!!

So before the project began, there was lots of prepping. There was more contact paper, on no we aren't finished with that lovely stuff, so that was a little tricky getting out. I had to use a spray bottle and a blow dryer.

It did leave a little bit of sticky stuff but we got it sanded off.

After the big sanding day, we realized we didn't take many pictures so here are a few.


Thanks to the previous owners, we were able to speed things up by using the electric sander they left for us. 

This is the primer drying on all of the drawers an doors.
We used a gray primer because it said it was good when using dark colors like black.



And again, the finished product! So much better. Also we painted the trim around the window which I think also looks loads better.



We also added some kitchen hardware. We found this cheap place online so it only cost us $45 to do the kitchen with about ten extras.

BUT... the kitchen is not done. I want to bring more color into it. So I think I will be spraying some things so I don't have to go buy more stuff. But I did work for a lady in the ward and for payment she lets me have store credit in her shop called Real Deals. So I found some fun stuff for the house. I found these great colors and they will be my kitchen colors.
