Progess on the Kitchen

 Hello Friends,

I have got good news.. the kitchen project is coming along well. The walls are painted, the upper cabinets are painted and installed. The floor is complete.

To give you a little peek.

 

Our kitchen was all white with a few accent colors.

Ripping out the lower counter top and cabinets.


 

Taking the wallpaper down was not as hard as I thought it would be.


 

We are keeping this cabinet.. it will have a fresh coat of paint and new hardware.

And for a little peek at what we are doing.. 

Our kitchen is playing off the colors of the one below called Sunny Backdrop.

 


My husband has named our kitchen, A Summer's Day.. it is coming along.. thank you for cheering these DIY's on.

    Working in the kitchen will be such a joy. I love your stove and the exhaust fan above.

  5. Oh Carla, can't wait to see your kitchen! What a delightful name your husband has named it. I'm glad you kept that cabinet with the glass. I've been wanting a glass cabinet for my coffee cups and such. They are so nice to have in the kitchen. I'm so happy for you, Carla, and you're both doing a terrific job!

    Great job. We have been working on some projects, but they are outside, our chicken pens were in need of much repair.
    Thank you for sharing.

  17. Looking forward to seeing your project progress. I love a yellow kitchen. Don't have one though. It opens so much to the dining room and living room, felt like I needed all the colors to be the same or at least blend. Been years since we've redone it though.

  18. So cute. I really love the color scheme! It is like Van Gogh sunflowers and the chickens will be perfect. I love your sink and cabinet. I hope you are keeping that sink! It's amazing! I look forward to seeing it. Perfect little farmhouse you have! We are working on ours. Has it been ten years??? Anyway, disaster happened. Faucet was leaking and I did not realize until the wood floor was uneven. Fortunately so dry here!Doing repairs and refresh ourselves again. Maybe complete in summer??? Takes a while to get things!!! Appliances not made like that used to be!!! I can live with the floor. I think it looks more authentic, but damaged paint not so much.
