Kitchen Re-Do

We have lived in our house almost nine years, and although we have replaced the flooring and did a little painting soon after we moved in, it was in desperate need of an update. I was tired of the country plaid and sunflowers.
I started tearing off the wallpaper two weeks ago and it was all gone in a few days with Madelyn and Ryan's assistance. One day while I was at work Madelyn spent fours hours tearing wallpaper off the wall. Thank goodness she has her dad's drive and initiative and not mine. Ryan then plastered and sanded the walls and put on two fresh coats of paint. He then removed all the cupboards and drawers and refinished them. While Ryan was busting his rear getting the kitchen done, I had fun shopping for new decorations and such for the kitchen.

new watchamacallits

NEW KITCHEN





Ryan says it looks like mustard all over our walls, but I LOVE IT!!
