to deal with this mess in the garage...
and it was looking like this at the end of the day
We still have to do quite a bit but at least we can walk in there and most importantly, I can start painting the cabinet doors.
My older girls took the younger kids to the play park behind our house so I could sand down the cabinet bases. Then I primed them with oil based primer (it took 2 coats to cover the dark brown well enough...
and carefully painted the first coat of Miller paint Acrinamel in white semi-gloss. It is too stark white so I will take it back in and have some yellow added just to warm it up a bit.
I didn't get a picture of our upper cabinets but they look really good. Of course I can't put anything back in my cabinets yet so we are living like this for now.
This Saturday I plan to line the cabinets with new contact paper and start putting everything back. I bought some turntables and some various organizational items so it will look good on the inside and out (which is kind of important as we won't have cabinet doors on for awhile).
Aw the life of a remodeler...
