Kitchen reveal!

I've had quite a bit to deal with and process through this month. Unfortunately, I received some sad news. For as long as I can remember, when I am sad/stressed I like to actually put more on my plate!! I know!  Crazy right? Anyhoo...

In the midst of my tough days, I thought it would be a fantastic idea to rip apart my kitchen and paint for several hours! I have toyed with the idea of painting my cabinets for so long but wasn't willing to take the risk until now! 
Hello dated orangey kitchen. Or should I say, Bye bye bye. 
I'm so over you!! My granite counter tops are being over shadowed by 90's oak! Gasp!

And the big black box of a refrigerator! Bye, Bye! The stainless has been ordered! Of course I had to pick the prime time of year to paint. In the middle of a freezing winter right!?! Sure. 
Who cares. I was off and running :)

( vegetable cans to prop up the cabinet doors. Very professional!)

With a lot of primer, patience, maybe some tears, alone time, and basement space it was about to happen! I think it was a perfect distraction from being sad. Luckily, I was also gifted a snow day so I was able to get a lot done!

And here are the results!!

And, Voila!

Well almost.

You can see all the way in the right hand corner that I am not completely finished. I am so close! This weekend it should be all done and I will then wait for my new fridge!

This transformation was exactly what I needed to brighten my mood along with some other cheery accents...

Oh boy, when the kitchen is done...

There has to be another project on the horizon. Hmmmm...

I may have an idea :)
