Kitchen Reveal

Before...



Now, after tiling over the laminate floors, painting the cabinets, buying new hardware, appliances, counter top and sink, tiling the back splash adding crown molding to the cabinets and the ceiling, scraping the popcorn off the ceiling, removing the fluorescent light and installing recessed lighting and under cabinet lighting, and painting the walls we are done!!



While my sister in law was here she helped us get the finishing touches in the three main rooms. We got a bookshelf for the front room

Hung pictures on the walls, at the proper height, apparently I had been hanging all our pictures way too high, they should be eye level to the average person.

And we got curtains to replace our vertical blinds, with the leftover curtain fabric I recovered some pillows

Sometimes I can be obsessed with home projects, over spring break we knocked a lot of them out, but no worries I still have the nursery and some other little odds and ends to work on...
And as I was uploading pics I fell in love with this one

"Wow" doesn't even do it justice. This looks like something out of a magazine. I am now bowing in awe in your general direction (north).

It looks so great you guys! We bow to your DIY skills. You really are amazing. Also, when did you find the time to do all that between Kev being in school/new dad and you working/pregnant/have an infant?
