Brian started tearing the backsplash off so the template can be made. This is how my kitchen looks now:
Duct taped beadboard and paper.
Took off the 1960's "brick" and Formica backsplash and discovered something funny.
The original color of the kitchen was almost the same exact color I painted it.
Nothing much changes, eh?
So today I'm busy turning the blue interior cabinets into white.
I didn't bother to prime as the blue is a flat paint so I just cleaned it real good and started painting Polar Bear white in Semi Gloss by Behr.
I'm off to give it a second (and hopefully final coat)

Can't wait to see the final product I've been enjoying seeing your house transformations. Smart to paint inside the cabinets white, it will never have to be done again! It is such tedious work to paint those little spaces. I'd love to hear any tips you have for keeping out brushstrokes. I've been painting woodwork and the brushstrokes are driving me nuts!
Hi Tanya,
I use this product: http://www.floodco.com/paint-additive-solutions/products/view-product.jsp?productId=12
It is a conditioner which allows the paint to dry slower and evens out brush strokes. I think HD or Lowes may carry it. I got it as our local paint store.
