Kitchen Makeover!

So our kitchen cupboard makeover is complete!  We took all the doors off, sanded them down, and used our electric spray gun to paint them.  (That's the simple version of the story...)  It took most of the weekend.  It wasn't that difficult, but definitely time consuming!  And as with any project we hit many moments where we thought it would never end.  But it did, and I'm so happy with the result!

I have a slight obsession with white, especially white kitchens.  I love how much brighter everything feels!

And here's a full shot of the kitchen area - that table was a Kijiji find.  Can't wait to re-upholster/re-stain it very soon...

Kitchen Cupboard Makeover

My first big home DIY project is completed!  I've been wanting to re-do these kitchen cabinets since I moved in last October, and decided to finally get moving on the project before putting all of our lovely new wedding gifts away.  We pulled off all of the cabinets, carted them to my dad's shop, and he sprayed them with his handy pressure sprayer.  Then we put them all back on and shopped around (by that I mean headed to Home Depot), and found some new handles.  While the cabinets were off, my good friend Tory repainted the walls to a nice grey (I'm not a huge fan of beige).  And voila!  I'll estimate this makeover cost about $120 + time.  And I love it!
