Kitchen Makeover, Part I

Time for updates. I haven't really posted anything other than quick holiday greetings since we got back from Belize. And lately we've been up to well... everything. So rather than post one HUGE post about everything that's happened in the last few months I'll just give the short versions in separate posts. It will be like reading the AP Wire... you can pick and choose which stories interest you instead of having wade through my ramblings.

So the kitchen makeover, part I.

One day we got the idea that we should do some projects around our apartment while both of us weren't working full-time. That said, the hardware store quickly became our second home and we had quite a bit of fun. Here's a peek at the first of many projects.

Here's the kitchen before:

And here's the kitchen after:

Kind of amazing what 2 coats of paint and new drawer pulls can do right? We love it, and we also painted a bookcase (of of those you can pick up at Target in their dorm room stuff sale), white as well. It's in the kitchen sporting our ever-growing cookbook collection and providing a home for my baking sheets and large mixing bowls. Next up, Kitchen Makeover Part II & III!
