Pleasant Dreams Farm: The kitchen cleaned up pretty nice.

Our family

Hi, welcome to our blog...thanks for stopping by! This blog is mostly about our life raising triplets and a singleton, but I do on occasion go off on a rant about this or that. We also have lots of crafts that we make with the kids, some pretty bomb recipes now and then too. In the summer of 2015 we bought 10 acres and started our small family farm. Lots of animals, dirt, work and fun! If you want to read our story from the beginning go to the Blog Archive and select April 2009. Also entry titles with a (*) have video clips...I try to keep them short and they are so fun to watch! Enjoy your stay, come again soon :)

The kitchen cleaned up pretty nice.

We haven't really got around to doing the after pics of the remodel job. I wanted to wait until we were all moved in and settled. This may take a year, but I can now share the kitchens before vs. after pics...since you can't see inside the cabinets...which still need some liners and to be organized. Before...yikes.

Now, how it looks today! What a difference. The lighting kind of sucks, but you get the idea. It is a smaller kitchen than we had before...but funny enough has more cabinet space, and the pantry which we are so happy to have.

*Since I have had a lot of compliments on the new color I wanted to add the name of what we used, it is a B. Moore color called Aegean Teal. It looks a little more teal in person than it does here.

New granite counters, new flooring, new appliances, new sink, mounted microwave, new lights, paint, sanded and gel stained the cabinets. Whew does that sound like a lot...because it sure felt like it LOL.

Still need to do some sort of window covers in the kitchen, just not sure what to do yet. I am thinking about some fabric drapes on a rod that only covers the bottom half of the window. I like the light from the window, but it faces the font of the house so everyone going by or coming up to the house can see in, so I was thinking the bottom coverage would keep the light at the top but block people from seeing anything...unless they are like 7 feet tall ;)
