my new kitchen

our kitchen is almost finished, just a few random things to paint.  we had such a nice weekend, that we worked outside instead of inside.  i'm very thankful we saved our pennies for this, because i love it!
 
my husband did an amazing job on all the shelves he built!  thanks to Mr. Haney and all of his great advice!

all of our paint came from Sherwim-Williams. the gray paint we use on the cabinets is called mineral deposit and the white that we used on the upper cabinets, shelves, breadboard, etc. is called alabaster. i'm in love with my smooth countertops...we went with silestone.   it's called norte blanco.  
eventually, we need a new stove, but we will have to save up for that.
A few things i learned...
kitchen redo's are a ton of work and your whole house it disrupted because of it.  let me refresh your memory...here and here.

it's not for the faint-hearted.  we spent 3 months on it and at times, i was so ready to be done, but you just have to keep going or be content with living in a disaster zone!

painting cabinets, takes so many steps...sand them, clean them, prime them, paint them, sand them again, paint them....it's really not that much fun, but i do like the end result!
