It's Finished!!!

Hubbie and I recently finished updating our kitchen. We had painted the plain, white walls a delicious green (Benjamin Moore~Louisburg Green). Oh, I just love coming into the kitchen...it makes me smile! The trim work was done in Benjamin Moore~Monterey White.

New light fixtures are up, new knobs are on the cabinets, (I wrote about the knobs here) and the project is complete! Here are a few pictures of our new curtains. In the first picture, you can see one of the new lights...The other lights in the kitchen are of similar design. Now, if I could just get inspired with my cooking... :)

Have a great Friday and a wonderful weekend!

The Kitchen Project...

Happy Wednesday! This won't be wordless, but just a little explanation. :) On Thursday, I mentioned that I was working on an easy project for the kitchen. I do not have "before" pictures, but just think about those really nice 90's smooth, brass knobs and pulls...have that picture?

Well, goodbye, 1990's! Hello, new kitchen! And it only cost about $6.00! Yea!!!

First, Hubbie and I removed the hardware and made sure they were clean and dry.

Then, I got two boxes...one large box and one small box...and placed the small one inside the large one. I put the knobs in the box and went to work. The pulls were done later.

Third, I used this...

to cover the brass. I put on enough coats until the lovely brass was no longer showing...make sure you follow the directions on the can about protecting the surrounding area and about the temperature. Please do this outside! :) The primer gave the knobs and pulls a lovely texture that we are really enjoying!

After the primer was dry, I used this can...

and sprayed on the beautiful new finish!

Here are our "after" pictures...this was an easy project that really spruced up our kitchen! Let me know if you give it a try!

Tonight is Candy Give-Away night at our church...my kiddos are pumped! :)
