Kitchen Upgrade

No need to comment, this is a diary shot of today's progress.

A large chunk of time lately has been spent painting cabinets, and then because the tiles clashed, painting those too.

New worktops, new fan, new sink - almost a new kitchen!
I like your backsplash.

@wakelys @vincent24 @casablanca @seattlite @kvphoto @beryl @carolmw @marlboromaam @robz @jgpittenger @haskar Thank you all for your interest and lovely comments- it's now finished apart from the walls so it's over to me again. Am so happy with te end result and it was even a little cheaper than the quote!

@kvphoto The units were originally pine. About 5 yrs ago I took the plunge after watching lots of YouTube videos and painted the cabinets a v pale green. It took a long long time as they had to be thoroughly cleaned and sanded, 3 coats of sealer and 2 of topcoat, sanding in-between each coat. It paid off because after 5 yrs I had one tiny chip of paint missing . However, the colour had yellowed so I took the plunge again. Much cheaper than buying new cabinets, can actually be quite therapeutic!
