We have Cabinets!

Finally, our cabinets are here. It is funny, I have a friend at work who, when ever she sees me asks me if my cabinets are here, and all summer I have had to tell her no. Not anymore! Yay. They came from Barker Cabinets in Portland Oregon about a week or so ago. They are solid wood, and beautifully made.  They ship them unassembled to your home, so we had a lot of building ahead of us.

They really weren’t that bad to put together. Defiantly the fun part of the project. They come with screws that work and don’t strip, so it is fast and easy to do. We had them assembled and put in a couple of days.

It was scary to see the kitchen come together for me. We totally switched the lay out around, and I think I was holding my breath until the end. Happy news…everything fit, and I am loving the lay out!

Now we are waiting on counter tops, I have to paint the baking island, find hardware,  and we need to install back splash and make our range hood.  So close!

I'm Erin, a busy mom of three, chauffeur, cook, housekeeper, and wanna be decorator. I love old movies, good books, and a daily trip to Lowes. We have recently bought a new home...one we are fixing up and changing everything. This blog is to record our renovating journey. This is not the first house we have done. Actually, it is our third. My husband and I love a project. Any project. We both love working on our home, have the same taste, (which is great), and love working and re purposing things on our budget. We can show you how to put together a high end and creative look without breaking the bank. Taking something old and recreating it into something new and exciting for any room is my passion. Hope you enjoy this decorating journey with us!
