ONE year later; The finished product ;-D

Well, here we are one year later with a finished kitchen ;) lol

Yes the last time I posted about paint and a new kitchen was October of last year.

You can read about it here.

Here I am painting the ceiling. I have to tell you this was a bigger project than I expected.

I'm thankful I had all this wonderful help from friends.

MANY friends...

Dawn's idea of the splatter setup behind the stove.

AWESOME idea, Dawn!! I love it!!

You can purchase those at your local Lowes ;)

Taping was another boring, menial task *ugh*

But when It was all done we were all so very proud.

three different coats of pain later. From top to bottom.

New rugs, place-mattes, towels, wash clothes and light fixtures.

It was extremely impressive... I never thought...

*sigh*

Thank You LORD for all who helped, it was a wonderful;

*MOMENT TO REMEMBER*

Freshly Painted Walls

New painted walls gives this wonderful sense of a new house and  it's
 a whole lot cheaper.
We are in the process of repainting my kitchen and dinning room and I'm so excited to see the conclusion of our labor!!
The theme is coffee with three different colors;
paper sack, sandy yellow, and autumn stem...
Autumn Stem is a very dark color with Paper Sack being the medium color and Sandy Yellow being the lightest...
Eeeek, I can't wait!!!
Umm... I absolutely love coffee, frappes, and lattes that I decided to fix my kitchen up with vintage coffee signs and pics.
The great thing about this is; it's  my marvelous husband undertaking this adventurous project, just for me. showing great enthusiasm for the task at hand.

Him showing an interest has softened my heart,
loving him all the more.

My family for the last year has been buying pics, signs, place-mats, rugs and so forth with coffee theme that my little hutch was teeming with generously rich coffee articles. I could put stock in the stuff
*SWEEETness*
So my husband and I went to good ole WalMart and picked out the colors. It was so exciting, I was beside myself.
"I know, I'm such a simpleton, but hey it's who I am."
My house has been smelling like paint...not the greatest smell I know but I look at it as just the beginning of wonderful changes in this old neglected (far too long) house.
I'm very happy and have been cherishing this...
*HAPPY MOMENT*
