Okay, today we painted and painted and painted!! We got up early and went to Lowe's to get paint. We decided on white. I have to say I never dreamed this kitchen could look this big! We thought we could get by with two coats of paint, but it really needed a third.
All the cabinets on the sink side of the kitchen are finished!! Whoohoo!! All the cabinets on the stove side of the kitchen need one more coat. Not bad for a days work. The drawers also only need one more coat of paint. We haven't touched the doors yet. That is a project for tomorrow.
Kyle also neatly laid out all the brass colored hinges from the doors and spray painted them a nickel color to match the new knobs we still need to buy. We could have easily spent over $250 on just hinges alone if we bought them new.
My goal tomorrow is to get all the painting finished...even the trim in the breakfast area!
Let me leave you with a few pics of the cabinets from today...I know, it is hard to tell what we did since the Kilz and the paint are both white.
Until next time...Gig'em!

I can't wait to see the finished party! It looks great!
I was just thinking how lucky the people are that move into a house after you. They have no idea how lucky they are because their home renovations were done thoroughly well. Good job!
