Kitchen Makeover: Before The Transformation

Hi Friends!

We started our kitchen transformation project about two weeks ago and it is taking MUCH longer than we expected!

Just so you know what we are working with, here are some before shots of our kitchen.

Here are some close-ups of the actual cabinets as well. As you can see, the paint is literally peeling off of them, which is probably because there is no hardware on them and they just cant keep up with the everyday wear. Also be sure to take a look at that sexy countertop in the second picture! That linoleum-ish countertop is so old that you can tell the color is not even close to what it was when it was first installed.

  

I will be posting each step of the process as we go along. Just so you know, we aren't actually knocking down walls, removing cabinets, or getting any new appliances. We wish we could, but it just doesn't make sense to invest that much money in a home when we will most likely be moving in the next year or two. Our plan for this project is to paint all of the cabinets on top white, all of the cabinets on bottom black, install granite tile countertop with white subway tiles as a backsplash, and get a new stainless steel sink while we are at it. 

Stay tuned for the actual process. I should have the first step (upper white cabinets) posted for you soon!

Have a lovely day!
