Clean Sweep, the Not-Born-to-Run Kitchen Edition, Part Two

You ask, I deliver!

You might remember my BEFORE kitchen...we'll wait while you go check it out.

And in case you don't have the patience to click, here's a few before shots just to refresh your memory:

Shudder.

Oh, look away!

Kitchen is EMPTY.

OMG NEW CABINETS!

OMG NEW FLOOR!

MORE CABINETS! and MORE FLOOR!

STILL MORE CABINETS!

Total cabinet tally: 7, Home Depot in-stock: $1,000.

But just wait...wait til you see the final product! I could perform surgery in this kitchen! In fact, I'm making Number One Daughter scrub before she's allowed to set foot (that would be a bootie-covered foot) in this inner sanctum!!



Stay tuned for the finished, final, granite-bedecked kitchen that I want to sleep in. Watch this space!

(Obligatory Tri Note: Sunday, June 21: International Triathlon Union, Sprint Tri, Washington, D.C. I am Very Nervous.)

(Obligatory Housewives Note: I really like Caroline!)

So nice - nothing like a shiny new kitchen!! With white cabinets you can really add your touch with the hardware. Good luck with your TRI and I like Caroline too and Dina.

Anne said...

Keep going...both with the Kitchen Makeover photos and tomorrow when you're out there doing the tri.

Don't forget the bowl of colorful fruit and vase of flowers. Maybe a glass of wine and a candle too.

David said...

This has me on the edge of my seat. PLEASE keep it up! Seriously though very nice kitchen and what an improvement!

Constance Burris said...

I bet that nice kitchen is making you think twice about moving, huh???????

Jade Lady said...

Looking good! Isn't it amazing what we get used to living with? And, when we finally decide we want to move...we make improvements and wonder why we didn't do it sooner! Can't wait to see the final doozy of a photo!

Kelly said...

When you said you were redoing your kitchen... I didn't know you meant, like, NOW. But it's lookin great so far... can't wait to see the finished product!
