The Cabinets

I've been wanting to paint our kitchen cabinets for a while now. I just assumed it would take alot of time so I put it off. Since Dusty was going to be gone at the Mayo Clinic for 2 weeks I figured i'd surprise him and get it done. My dad had painted his a while back a nice creamy white with black handles and i loved it. But with my white appliances, and not very dark countertops i thought that might look silly. I really love black cabinets but wasn't sure how it would look in my kitchen, but since I have a window above my sink and a really big windows on the other side of the kitchen, i figured Lets Go For IT!! This is the only 'before' shot i took unfortunately....

Here are the afters....


I like it!
