kitchen make over

when we moved into our house there was quite a bit of work to be done.  an old lady named daisy lived in the house...and well, she decorated like a daisy.

i'm talking about magnolia wallpaper.  emerald walls.  burgundy walls.  flower wallpaper in the kitchen.  atrocious.

with that said, we've done a lot of fun things to help change the look of the house.  we're not really good decorators, so we've had to rely on the painting, furniture, and the kitchen :)

so the kitchen.  the kitchen started with flower wallpaper ( i wish i had pictures, but i got it down so quickly the camera couldn't catch it).  then it had terrible white laminant counter tops, with pot and pan burn marks..ooh pretty.  and the cabinets.  well here are the cabinets...







terrible colored wood.  even worse gold knobs.  nothing great about this.

but now.  the cabinets have been painted.  and new knobs have been ordered.  jonathan put new countertops in and they look awesome.

but as for the painting, and antiquing, and new nobs, i'm proud to say this was all me :).  so here they are...







so im a little impressed.  i love them really.  they lighten up the whole room.  and i love them.  and home projects.  i love those in general.  so go paint your cabinets.  antique them.  and order knobs real cheap from overstock.

goodnight.
