Hi everyone. How about taking a peek at the progress we’ve made so far? Let’s start with the counter tops. I think my husband did a fantastic job.
This is what the counter looked like before. Can you say ugly? Very outdated.
And after! I love the color. Love the different shades it has.
My hubby wubby cleans his mess too. :) Thank goodness. :D
This is a close up of the formica top. I love it. We didn’t spend a lot money because we’d like to add on to our house and our addition includes a kitchen. Someday. For now, this is what we’ll have. I love it.
For the backsplash, I am using the beadboard wallpaper everyone is using lately. I ordered mine thru Home Depot. They have the best price. I’ll make another post as soon as I finish this part. For anyone that is thinking about using beadboard wallpaper, I say go for it. It is very easy to handle. And…..it’s paintable. I will be painting mine probably in the same shade as the counter top.
We also bought a new sink in a slate color. It is a dark color almost black but not quite black. Love it. We are adding trim to the cabinets and then I want to paint the trim and make it look distressed. Hopefully, it’ll look good. I saw some cabinets at Lowe’s and I loved the look they have. They have a glaze over certain areas. The glaze is called Toasted Almond. Love it. I’m going to attempt doing that on my cabinets. Wish me luck. hee hee
Well I hope y’all enjoyed a little peek at my counter top. I’ll make sure and give y’all an update as soon as we finish. I can’t wait to show you all!
Blessings,
Sandra

It sure made a difference :-) And inexpensive, you say? Well, I think everybody is all for that too :-) It gives much more warmth to your kitchen - the color.

Looking good Sandra! I'm so excited for you. I remember when we redid our kitchen. It was tons of hard work, but at the end it was all worth it. Can't wait to see more. Have a great day.
