Major Kitchen Make Over

David and I decided to re-do our kitchen last year sometime in the Fall.  But we knew it was going to take a lot of time and we didn't want the kitchen in complete chaos around the Holidays so we waited... until the day after Christmas to dig in :)
This is what our kitchen looked like Before (which has the new stove and dishwasher already)

Then it looked like this

And then this

David sanded the cabinets and then we primed (2 coats) and painted (another 2 coats) We didn't want a bright white, but didn't want a yellowish white so it wasn't as easy to pick out a paint color as I thought it'd be.  We ended up going with Martha Stewarts Glass of Milk and so far I think it's perfect.

Still on the to do list

• Granite Counters (we checked out our slab last week to make sure we liked it and now it's being sent to the contractor for our exact cuts)
• New Sink and Faucet 
• Back splash tile (we still need to pick out)
• Paint the walls (Gray)
• Faux white wooden blinds in the bay window

 David and his Dad installed the new lights on Saturday morning.  We thought we were going to do under cabinet lighting but the new ceiling lights are way brighter than the old stuff so I think under cabinet lighting would be major overkill. 

I'm most excited to see the counters.  They are scheduled for Tuesday 2/04.  More pictures to come!
