      Kitchen Cabinet REDO! – Personal

      I have been wanting to re-do my kitchen cabinets since we bought our house 5 years ago! If you know me, you know that i hate all things crafty, and i honestly am not good at crafts and redo projects even though i really do try to be!! Ive been pinteresting my dream kitchen for years now, and while we don’t have the time or funds to make my dream kitchen come true, we can totally handle a DIY cabinet make over!! Maybe even a DIY tile backsplash?! Where are all my crafty friends? Any tips? What paint should i use? Do i REALLY have to sand first? i hate sanding!! Here is my kitchen, this is from the day we moved in.

      I know my kitchen is pretty small, we honestly don’t have much room for all our food and such :p but we are making it work! Here are a few of my DREAM kitchens and my fav cabinets / tiling! All of these images are from PINTEREST!

      I think its safe to say there is a pattern here! I definitely want some sort of open cabinetry, a neutral bright paint, [can’t be grey…we painted our walls grey! :)] and a bright backsplash! I think i love the subway tile look but I’m not sold on it yet! I really hope to get around to this kitchen mini make over soon!! Thanks for reading, and send me your best advice!! 🙂

        Oh my goodness, I wish I had advice, but all I can say is that I hope I have those white cabinets and backsplash someday too! 😀ReplyCancel

        I love the inspiration! I would say that I love the same look! For painting your cabinets, definitely do your homework. We are getting ready to paint a small bathroom vanity and we are using this as a guide.
