Hooray!

Remember this?

Although quite functional, these cabinets were the bane of every dinner party, where people inevitably ended up in the kitchen, crouching down to talk to someone on the other side.

I'm soooo happy to say, the cabinet project is finally complete! And just in time for the paella party, too.

Maybe it's just my family that has a tendency to start huge projects mere days before company is coming over, but at least I know I come by that trait honestly. (I seem to remember my parents deciding to completely re-landscape their yard about a week before my wedding.)

Thanks to out good friends Joe & Adrianna (and their son Soren, who supervised!) we were able to do this project fairly inexpensively. I love how it turned out!

  1. It does look great! On the subject of huge projects and deadlines, we totally gutted and remodeled the original kitchen (including original stove and oven!) in our 45 year old house, with lots of help and supervision from a good friend who remodels kitchens and bathrooms for a living.
    I agreed to let my husband start the destruction on January 1st, as long as he was finished by our son’s first birthday, which was March 3rd. He didn’t see a problem with a two month deadline, and started knocking out walls and cabinets.
    Needless to say, it took about 10 months, but the end result was well worth the wait :)

  2. Awesome! Way to go! It looks great. You are to be commended. Have a fantastic time with weekend with the paella & friends.
