It’s been a long time waiting, but I’ve FINALLY made my decisions on what to do with my kitchen. A few months ago…7 months to be exact (back in late December), I mentioned that on my to-do list for 2011 was to makeover my kitchen. I’d love to do a complete overhaul with new cabinets and beautiful new countertops, but it’s not in the cards right now. If you remember, I had decided to use stain on the cabinets to achieve a darker look, but was stuck on what to do with the countertops.  Well I changed my mind entirely…a girl can do that, right?! No more stain, but instead ~ PAINT!
My other major dilemma at the moment was that it was wintertime and I was afraid of the possible smells and vapors from the paint or stain.  Not being able to open the windows is a big no-no with kids in the house. So I waited and waited and thought and thought……
And now, it’s summer. I made a decision, the windows are open, and I’m transforming!
Here is a before picture of the kitchen
After lots of thought, I decided to use the Rust-Oleum Countertop Transformation Kit (which I pictured in this post), and a taupe colored paint for the cabinets (I’ll share the specifics in a future post soon)!
Here’s a sneak peak of what we’ve been up to, which I also shared in Sunday’s post.
Tomorrow will be the big reveal…stay tuned!
I seriously can’t wait to see this! We have the cabinet kit and just haven’t had the time to bust it out.
Thanks Jami!! I’m actually not using the Rust-Oleum cabinet kit, but did use the countertop kit ~ the post will be up later!! Make sure to come back and check it out! Jenna
