New granite

It's gorgeous! Poor Matt was staying with us the weekend the guys were installing the granite, and it was super loud and smelly. There's nowhere to escape to in a condo, we just had to endure the ruckus. Well worth it, though, I'm loving it. Doesn't look quite right with the yellow walls, but that will change soon enough.



Still need to add knobs and pulls to the doors and drawers, hopefully in the next couple of days.


Painting the cabinets

We set up shop in the garage to paint the cabinet doors. Quite a process: 1 coat of primer + 3 coats of paint, sanding inbetween each coat.



All done! You can also see how useless our kitchen was for a few days. (Don't laugh Elise, I know you guys have it much worse.)


We're getting a new kitchen!

Yahoo! So far we're about halfway through renovating our kitchen. We've painted our cabinets and had new granite installed, and we still have to have new tile put on the backsplash and paint the walls.

Because I'm having trouble remembering HTML code and it's screwing up my post, each group of pictures is getting their own posting, damn it.

Here's a few pics of our old kitchen.
