• Monday, May 14, 2007 - Kitchen Progress...

Posted in Kitchen

Well, the kitchen is coming along - SLOWLY!    Boy, will I be grateful when it's painted and the cupboards are finished!  It's such a slow process.  I'm so glad that I got started on stripping the wallpaper when I did - it's been almost a month now.  DH and I have chosen the paint colours, so it should be amazing when it's finished!!!

Here's some more photos of the progress....this is the fridge/stove area:

And from the sink over to the stove......

There is only the last wall behind the stove left to finish up.  Then I have to go back and finish up on small areas where we may have missed some backing or glue and then DH can do the puttying and sanding!!!  Then it's ready for the paint!!!!!!!!!!  The cupboards are being started on June 18th.

The only thing that's kept me going through this is the vision of the finished product.  It's been a daunting task to say the least.  We've lived with this wallpaper for 14 years now and I'm not going to miss it at all!  The kitchen has served us very well, however, it's now outdated and it's time for a facelift (for the kitchen, NOT me...!   ).  Man, I'm going to miss my 24" wide HARVEST GOLD stove - NOT!!!!!!!!!

Have a wonderful day!

Isn't it so refreshing seeing everything looking better! I love changing the look of a house. We had a house we lived in that had an ugly, dark kitchen. We painted the cupboards and walls, changed the floors and appliance painted the fridge (was ugly green). It was SOOO much better afterwards! Good luck!

Oh - thanks for the update about the Liberian adoption agency. I'm interested in all of that potentially some day!

God bless.

I just love it when I can take a "peek" at others' homes and styles. Thanks for sharing this with us! I will have to keep coming back to your blog to watch as the changes unfold! :-)
