primer, primer, paint, paint, paint...

I haven't been able to show you the finished product of the concrete countertops because they've been wrapped in plastic for painting purposes. These poor guys have been priming and painting these cabinets for so long. There are so many of them and turns out there was quite a bit of repair that needed to be done to them. Knicks and cracks and poor installation caused the guys to have to spend a lot of time caulking and filling which then led to more sanding! If only I had a tally of how many hours have been spent on the trim and woodwork in this house! They been rolling, brush-painting AND spraying on multiple coats of primer AND paint and I will tell you, they are looking AH-mazing. The craziest part to me is that when they were so dark, and the ceiling was so low I had no perspective of just  how much storage there was or how big that kitchen really was. It felt so small and insignificant. Now it's already the highlight of the house and it's not even finished. Like they always say, it's crazy what a little paint can do!

  1. For reals, do you remember your old kitchen? It had the storage room of that island...MAYBE. You've got so much room now you might have to start couponing and hoarding!
