Planning for a Kitchen Redo

We have been planning a kitchen redo since we moved in this house.

Figures when we want to sell that this redo will actually happen. Now we aren't selling right away, but it is definitely in the cards for us in the very near future. Like I have said...this is a builder grade house...totally. We need to change it up. See what I mean?

We have a ton of DIY projects that will spiff this kitchen up.

First of all we are painting the cabinets white and adding crown to the top.

I am sure some brushed nickel pulls could help. We are also going to change the counter tops and tile the back splash. This doesn't even include fancy new appliances.

By the time we start this project and it's coming around the corner like a freight train our hardwood or should I say hand scrapped laminate floors will be installed. But that is another story.

Oh...I can't forget about wall color too. Top it off with new trim, accessories, and voila!
 We shall see...there is a lot more to do.

Home improvement is so much fun. But for now, it's all in the planning!

 

Are you redoing your kitchen? Where did you start? Painting the cabinets?

 

 

This is my joy...

Here is my second post. Don't worry I won't be counting them pretty soon.

But I have to share my joy...

This is my love, my boy JJ. He is growing so fast I just can't believe it.

I just want to turn back the time to his toddlerhood. JJ was such a lively little guy when he was two. He had me literally running to catch him.

 

 

 

See that little smile. That's my JJ. Now he is in third grade. Like I said, hard to believe the growth, but I love seeing him grow into this wonderful and loving young boy that he is.

 

I just thought I would share him with you. Besides home renovation stuff, JJ will probably show up in a post or two.

 Is time escaping you? Did you turn around and look and have that feeling in your gut how much you missed the little ones?
