Boy that was a bigger job than I thought it would be. The kitchen cabinets were filthy and I didn’t realize they were that bad. I had to scrub them three times before they came clean. Did I end up painting them, you bet. I’m not going through all of that again. I painted them white so I can tell when they get dirty now.
The kitchen looks about twice as big as it did before too. With the wallpaper and everything else painted white, it looks wonderful. I might put new handles and knobs on the drawers later but for now, these are fine. My grandmother found some curtains that look great with my new wallpaper and got one for the window over the sink and one for the back door that has rod holders in each end so I can close them completely when it gets dark. They really set the room off.
Well now the living room, bathroom and kitchen look great. Next will be my bedroom since my grandmother did Michele’s room when we moved in. Once I get my room done, it’s on to the outside of the house. It will be warm enough to start that then. I want a deck build at the door that goes out of the kitchen to the back yard. Might even want sliding glass doors put in to really open up the kitchen. We’ll have to see how much money I have before something like that can be done. Hey, tax checks will be coming soon, sounds like a good thing for that.
