Since moving into our new home, Matt and I have been working like crazy people to remove the 1990’s wallpaper on every wall. Now… poor matt had to do a bit more work than me since I was SO SICK for the first 4 months of this pregnancy. It was all good when we started fixing things up and I wasn’t pregnant…. and now…. well…. matt will probably never let me start another project again for the rest of my life.
I’ve been waiting until our house was nice and clean to get pictures of all the rooms, and well…. they just never seem to be clean at the same time. So, i’m just going to start with pictures of the kitchen, and we’ll go from there. And we’re still not done, but we are done enough for now. I really LOVE our new kitchen and feel a little like I could run a cooking show out of it. Well, if I cooked I could. ;) I am pretty spoiled to have some fabulous help picking things out for our house. If you are ever doing some remodeling or redecorating check out Mindi Freng Designs. She has been a HUGE help in finding fun stuff for the house (she even had my fab new orange table legs just chillen in her garage waiting for a new home!!) and with helping me to know where to put things that I already owned and make it look like it belongs there, not like I just took it out of storage and stuck it somewhere. The black cabinet in my kitchen used to be in my photography studio, but with a new paint job it was ready for the kitchen!! Check out Mindi’s website or facebook page to see some more of her amazing work!!
This is a picture that I posted back in August of the work we had done up to that point.
and these are pics I took today!!
We took cupboards down and added open shelves to put my colorful dishes on, did a crazy lot of painting, refinished the floor to be a fabulous black, got a new light fixture and a new kitchen faucet.
Oh… and who are these cute children in jammies at 3pm?? Why they are my children doing their school work of course. Clothes are totally overrated.
Well. Theres the kitchen. You are all invited over for dinner tonight. Hopefully none of you know where I live since I only have 2 lbs of meat…..
