Kitchen Remodel ~ Almost Finished!!!

So....we've almost completed our kitchen remodel!! We only have a few things left do to...before beginning the next project :)

This is the only picture I could find of how our old kitchen looked:

And here's the 'almost finished' new kitchen!! We did ALL of the work ourselves! Which consisted of....taking all the cabinets down, removing the hardware, sanding...A LOT of sanding....and then staining, painting the centers and then finally the countertops! As you can see, we still need to pick out the centers for the cabinets above the stove, sink & fridge, finish a couple of the drawers and then mount the microwave above the stove. But overall, we are very pleased with the results. PLUS, knowing that we did all the work ourselves, makes us that much happier with the final results!

But I will say, I've learned to think long & hard before even considering another 'remodel' of any kind!!!
