Kitchen Project.................

So since we painted the trim white in the dinning room we had to paint the cabinets too. Well, we didn't have to but it looks alot nicer. We did this during the blizzard and I got the wrong type of roller cover so we kind of did it twice. The picture above is what the cabinets looked like before. They are sanded in this picture, but you get the just of it.

So we painted the cabinets and after three coats on almost everything we realized it was just peeling off with any little touch, so we put up the plastic barrier and sanded everything! It was a big job.

Sanding everything made a big mess, so we had to vacuum it good and wipe it down before painting again.
This is what it looks like now from the hallway. Still a little more painting but not to much. We are probably going to get new counter tops and make a little place for stools.
Kitchen and dining area. Picture is a little dark sorry.
