Kitchen Cabinet Overhaul


All of my power tools ready to go!
I painted around the drawers and started getting excited about the outcome!

The new drawer pulls didn't match the holes of the old, might I add UGLY old ones, so I filled the holes with wood putty. So easy. Then I sanded it all down to feel like buttah.

Finished product! I did learn a lesson for the rest of the kitchen. make the holes for the hardware before you paint. I did the opposite and the paint started cracking. No bueno. But I knew this would be a learning experience! Ok off to eat the can of soup sitting here in this picture because I'm driving myself into the poor house with these renovations! No actually, this one..painting and new hardware is going to cost me about $60 since I already had the paint. I didn't include the $30 sander in the cost since I will use it over and over again. I am loving it!
