Nothing crafty this week going on except…dum, da, dum, dum, duuuum…the great kitchen cabinet painting project of 2012.
Yes, as is customary when J. leaves us alone for a week, we find a project to keep busy. I’ve been working up the courage to tackle the cabinets for so very long and finally – this is it! Although, I have a sneaky suspicion that there is no way this job is going to be done before J. gets back on Friday. It took me all night just to get cabinet doors and drawers off. We are never going to be one of those cool kitchens with open cabinets…
In fact, I can’t believe I’m showing the whole internets our mess that is usually hidden behind our kitchen cabinets. I cleaned (good ‘ol TSP) and sanded them down today and tomorrow we will tackle priming.
And I think I may have sweet-talked a friend of ours into spraying all of the doors and drawers for us. It may take a few weeks, but that is fine since it will give me some time to clean out our cabinets! 
House projects? Crafty projects? Anything less messy happening at your place?
I can’t wait to see what you’ve decided to do!
I always decide to take on projects when my husband is out of town too. They are going to look great. I can’t wait to see the finished product. Having someone spray your doors and drawers will save you SO much time.
That’s going to look so awesome when you are finished! I can’t wait to see!
Plenty of crafting around here….just none of it logged yet…fear not, it’s on my list if things to do….as always!
I’m sure it’ll look amazing when you’re finished with it!
I saw a post a while back (maybe at The Nesting Place?) where someone painted the INSIDES of her cupboard doors with chalkboard paint!

Amanda – I just painted our weird “spice cabinet” with chalkboard paint for our shopping lists…I’m sure it will appear in a CT at some point! I sure do love chalkboard paint! You can see it up there…
I love your new floor!!! Can’t wait to see it when it’s all done!!!
