Kitchen Re-DO


Our kitchen cabinets are 1978 originals. Carol wanted to bring it into this century. We looked at getting new cabinets at IKEA, etc. (Lots of money and even more work). We comprimised with some money and some work and it came our pretty good.
Before we had a black stove and a black dishwasher and lime green cupboards.
So we bought a new cookstove, changed the face of the dishwasher, painted the cupboards to change the look.
I fixed some old cupboard slides, installed some new cupboard sliding shelves and presto--she is pleased.and I'm happy because when momma is happy.....

Thanks for the pictures and update Dad. The new kitchen looks great!!! Way to save money and do it yourselves. Mom had mentioned in her e-mail that she just still wanted a new cookstove, but it looks to me like you already got her that. ( :

Wow! You guys did an amazing job! It looks totally different...just like those before and after pictures in the decorating magazines:) You've always been such a handyman, Dad. You can pretty much do everything...and you do it well. I'm sure you had a big part too, Mom. Good job.
