our kitchen now...new stove, microwave and dishwasher, no counters! no sink!
me, taking off the tile. the plywood would remain for about a month, the lack of plywood almost 2 weeks
the newly painted cabinets. this pantry door is awaiting a coat of chalkboard paint.
pot of cream is the lovely new color. (i did it myself!)
jake removing the sticky, stinky vinyl tiles to reveal even uglier linoleum.
the kitchen after i moved in...painted two shades of green (that didn't quite turn out the way i was picturing).
the kitchen...before me! hence all the beer and pizza boxes (i mean, i love beer and pizza, but i would move the remains before i took a picture!)in less than 24 hours, i will have new quartz counters! to complete the kitchen, i'll still need to install a tile backsplash, pick a new paint color, change the pulls on the drawers only, apply the chalkboard paint, and hire someone to retexture the ceiling. so close!
(as i was actually in the midst of all these projects, each step featured in the blog in my mind. the post on painting the cabinets was probably 2000 words--it was a long, boring project. but...i got tired, and this is the best i could do.)

Hey - at least you don't have to open the drawers to get out your silverware! That's the lazy bum in me talking, though. I'm sure you can't wait to get your countertops in! =) I'm jealous!
The cabinets look fabulous, as does everything else. I'm excited for your counter-tops. I recall with clarity the day ours went in after living with plywood for 2 years. I would stand in the kitchen and lovingly run my hands over them on occasion for weeks after they were installed. I can't wait to see pictures once it's all done.
danielle, jake and i both loved how easy it was to get in the drawers, and joked that it would save us a lot of energy if we never put the counters back in!
jeni, i hope ours turn out as well as yours!
