Work In Progress Wednesday

Well, this holiday weekend we decided to work on a huge project. We definitely need to work on painting the kitchen cabinets so that we can get the doors back on and keep the little ones out of the cabinets. We found some really great instructions on the Young House Love blog, although we added one extra step. After we were done sanding the cabinets we washed them with TSP. We were planning all along to paint them white but then at the last moment decided espresso brown. This weekend we'll do the rest of the painting so that the following weekend they will be all dry and ready to hang. It's really looking nice already. I also spray painted the hinges to match the brushed nickel light fixtures and the new hardware. The hardware is from IKEA and is so simple and classic. I can't wait for them to be done and feel like the kitchen is finally functional.

Here's a few pics.






Besides, the kitchen we just did some upkeep things, nothing exciting to report on that end.
