I Decided To Jump In Head First...

and tackle a few large kitchen projects.


As much as I loved my colonial red cupboards, I thought it was time to lighten 'em up!


I picked up Rustoleum's Cabinet Transformations kit and hit the floor running!

I decided on the color "English Cream." Here's a sample of it...

I also have "samples" of it on my knees, arms, hands and face.


Since I haven't won the lottery or pulled 7 grand in change out of our couch cushions for granite counter tops, I'm going to use Rustoleum's Countertop Transformations.


So I'll be scarce for awhile. But I promise when I'm done, I'll share before and after pics with you.


If interested: Here's the direct link to my Rustoleum Countertop Transformations tutorial.


Oh! And here's an update on Steve the Chipmunk.
Today I saw him run down to the creek in a Speedo carrying an inner tube.


Remember to enjoy nature!

    Can't wait to see the transformation. I have been thinking on those same lines, but am a little chicken to tackle a job that big. Would love doing my countertops. Good luck!

    You crack me up. Can I send my group of munks to spend the summer with Steve? I just saw the commercial for these new Rustoleum products - can't wait to see the before and afters.

    Make hay while the suns shines, Gal. You are quite motivating. Did you remember to take before shots? I usually forget pictures until the project is done. Keep us posted. YaY!
