Andi, Drew and I have been rehabbing my sister-in-law’s house that we have been living in. Some bedrooms have been painted. The living room has been painted and so has the kitchen. The kitchen could use new counter tops, sink and new Moen kitchen faucets. It’s surprising what a coat or two of paint can do. The kitchen cabinets have been painted white and the old hardware was taken off and painted what now looks like a brushed chrome. It looks really pretty.
Drew took down the range hood and gave it the same brushed chrome look too. The walls had an apple wallpaper border along the backsplash and we took that down. It was very easy to do with a spray bottle filled with hot water and a scraper. Over the sink had apples painted across the wooden strip that joins the cabinets on either side. They are now gone too thanks to primer and paint.
