It…is done!

At least for Thanksgiving which is two days away, can you believe it! We wanted to get the cabinets done mostly so that we could at least make Thanksgiving dinner and we did but there was good news and not so good news! The good news was we could buy this part of the counter at Lowes but the opposite side would have to be ordered, this I knew but because of the holidays and being backed up at the factory I probably won’t get them until after Christmas…bummer! That’s okay though I’m truly thankful for my dreamy, white kitchen…Amen!
It was alot of hard work for both of us, I would paint on my days off and hubby would pick up what I wasn’t able to get finished so yesterday he finished it up for me and you can imagine the smile on my face when I walked in and saw the counter on. Of course it wasn’t decorated I did that today and what a good time I had:)
I’m warning you that this post is very picture loaded  and I had to use the flash because it has been raining for three days here and very dreary out but this has been a dream of mine to finally be able to show my kitchen to you.

I left the doors off above the refrigerator, at first I wasn’t going to but then thought how little use they get because of how far back they are because of the new fridge. Mr. K did throw the cookbooks up there and my mind started turning and I thought I’d find a bookend when I went to Marshall’s.It’s a man leaning and pushing plus it’s black and eclectic(7.99)that’s what I was looking for. The newspaper basket, that’s what I call them, is from TJMaxx.(9.99)

You can see him better in this photo, also bought a new cookbook, Soup is it’s name.(3.49)

I so want to keep it clutter free!

As you can see the hardware is all on, I had bought the hardware about 5 years ago someday I’d like to get new handles on the cupboards but that’s a ways down the road!

The hinges were a tarnished gold so Mr. K grinded what he could off then he spray painted them with Valspar Metallic paint and they came out so good, looks like they were that way from the beginning!
 
Finally got to use the zebra baskets, I’ve had them for a couple months!  See the planters above the cupboards?

They are from the Dollar Tree which I spray painted a flat white, I’ve had these for a while too!

Yes, that’s our turkey, just didn’t feel like lifting all 20lbs of him again! I still have to paint the window trim and the switch plates too!

I need a new light but I’m taking my time I just haven’t found any yet that aren’t to expensive that I really love. I can’t decide if I want industrial or mercury glass, I guess I’ll know it when I see it!

I took the one rooster down and put the rooster pitcher up instead, that’s also a Easy Canvas print I won on a giveaway!

Did you ever find a pin on Pinterest that you loved and had to have? Well, I did with this pin below, see the inside of the cabinet painted black with the white bowls…well, I had to have this in my kitchen!!!

Ta Da!!! This is what you see when you walk in the door LOVE it!  This is the cupboard underneath the island/bar the bowls are from Marshall’s  and the one bowl on the bottom to the left was free at a garage sale!


I had to take the picture from the side because the flash just bounced off the black!

I hope you enjoyed seeing my white kitchen there is still alot more I want done but as Sonny from 155 Dream Lane says “ I walk down the hallway and smile every time I see my white kitchen.” Now I do too Sonny:)
