Kitchen Update

In recent days we've both been working on painting the kitchen. Ben especially has been working very hard. In his words- "once you start into it, you can't stop". I find it easier to stop than him it seems. :) Anyway, we've painted our kitchen yellow and we've had many a discussion if it's too yellow, too much egg yolky... you get the picture.

This is Ben posing.






This is Ben priming the cabinets. Notice the primer is bright white.















These windows have mainly been my project. I painted them a creamy white tonight. Aren't they lovely? (say yes... please)














This is tonight. We've decided to "glaze" our cabinets. It's hard to explain, but basically you paint the main color (for us the creamy white) and then you get the glaze (a brownish color called Cottonwood for us) and apply it. Then you wipe the glaze off a bit and the glaze stays on the grooves for a nice affect. We've never done this before, but I was impressed with the outcome.


















Here's a close up of our "glazed" cabinets.
