Tyler's parents own a few houses that they rent out. In one of the garages there were some upper cabinets and a long countertop/cupboards with a sink in it. So, we took that all out and are using them to put in our kitchen. There has been a lot of cutting, (to fit into our space), and a lot of sanding. We have been working on this for like a month now and that's all we have gotten done! It is turning out to be a bigger project than we anticipated. I am certain that it will turn out great though! Here are some before pictures:
These first three are the "laundry room". There was already a sink and a fridge in there along with a washer and dryer. We bought a table, got a stove, and took the entry door off so that is also crammed into the room.
The white sink in this one has been removed.
Here is the long countertop/cupboards with the sink in it. There was a ton of stuff on it at the time so I just took a pic of what a small section looked like. We are replacing the handles to a nice crome and painting everything black. We are also putting new countertops on.
This is a small sectional that was already in the laundry room. We removed to ugly top and will make it match the other countertops. It will also be painted black of course.
This is the plate rack that we bought. Since there won't be a lot of room in our four cupboards we thought this was the perfect solution for our dishes. Plus, I think our dishes are cute so why not show them off?
This last picture is my own little draw up of what the kitchen will look like when we are all done. Don't be shocked at how good my computer drawing skills are.
Sorry to those whom I just bored to death. I have never done a home project of this caliber before...I've never really done ANY home project before so it's a big deal for me. When we finish I'm never going to want to move out, otherwise what a waist of hard work! I will post finished product pictures in a few months when it's actually done, ha ha! OK hopefully sooner, (crossing fingers)!
