Home Projects: The Kitchen Cabinets

We have spent the past couple of weeks working hard to redo our cabinets, like we did to the bathroom. The bathroom and kitchen cabinets were not in good shape when we moved in.  The finish was peeling off and the kitchen cabinets were really dirty. It didn't cost a lot, but it was hard work, and took a lot longer than we had expected/wanted. 

BUT... look how great they turned out!!!! And I love them!!!!
