Kitchen Update #2

Well the cabinets are painted and my vintage jars are up! I forgot to take a before shot with the cabinet doors on...but you get the idea...BROWN! Phil really worked his tail off helping me get the kitchen redone. We took all the cabinet doors off and painted them plus inside the cabinets themselves. We took three full days painting into the late night to get them done. Phil then crafted a beautiful shelf unit for me to display my vintage canning jars. I had seen one on E-bay that I really liked but would have had to shell out over $50 for it. Phil made a even more lovely one for about $15! I then found a "newer" dishwasher for cheap to add to the update. Phil finished it off with some beautiful baseboards to complete the look. We are very pleased to be done and keep asking, "Now, why didn't we do this earlier??"
We recently got a new sliding door so those pictures are included too.




Aren't these pretty? Notice the 70's contact paper...Levi is enjoying these cabinets being empty!



A very uncomfortable position!



Everything was so much easier once the priming was done.





Caitlyn getting in on the action...




Old slider removal














The work was done by Evan's Glass and they did a fantastic job!! Highly recommended.
