Kitchen Reveal!

As mentioned in my last post, dh and I have been working on repainting/remodeling our house since we moved in in August.  We've gotten a lot done, but we still have big dreams for the house.  Here is our latest accomplishment, finally painting the kitchen!  Hope you enjoy!

Before...

Like the green paint on the left? How about the non working light fixture?  :)

Thomas' contribution to the kitchen...carve into the ceiling!

The old light fixture, and holes for recessed lights

The light are in!

My fabulous handy husband <3

The old height wall, and old base board color

Detail on the height wall...nearly 30 years and 8 children in the making!

There used to be a board there...we took it down and took out the drywall (opps).

deciding on a color

...and After

Ta-da!

New chalkboard wall!

No more green paint samples!

The awesome recessed lights dh put in, and a newly white ceiling

The new table that dh built (have I mentioned how much I love this man?)

Our suer-fabulous new calendar; a Christmas gift from my SIL!

We're both really happy with the way it turned out, it's so much brighter and cheerier in there now.  It also really opens the space up, which is great since it's actually kind of small.

Hope you enjoyed the tour!
