Painting the Kitchen
Alright, I'm back.  Yes, I know it's been a while but, well, I've been too busy being lazy to do anything around the house.  But on Thursday night, my mom sent me a text offering to take the dog for a couple days so I could get some painting done.  (Have I mentioned that my mom is awesome?!) Turns out that was the motivation I've been looking for, so 4 hours of taping, 5+ hours of priming and painting, and a gallon of paint later, the kitchen, laundry room and part of the pantry are done!  Things I learned:  painting is fun, taping is not.  It looks good though, so I guess it was worth it!
 Before, with green cabinet paint over-spray.

 This is what took so long.  Painting the walls and ceiling BEFORE the cabinets were in would have been nice.

 After!  It just looks white here, but actually its a really nice cream color.

 A better idea of the paint color.
