Patience is a virtue

*Waves*

Hello Strangers!  LONG time no see!!! You know I usually don't show up unless I have something amazing to share with you.  Well...

This is pretty amazing.

See this...



It use to be this...

(I'd say excuse the mess, because I forgot to take pix before... but it was so dang ugly, the mess just looks at home!!!)

And this...

Is now this...

And this ugly thing...

Is now this...

In progress...



A few more details...

After years, since we moved in to be exact, I have hated, loathed, despised, my kitchen.  Not only because it's ugly, but because when everyone comes into my house everyone congregates in the kitchen... and well, it's ugly.  So, I had a vision.

These cupboards my dad bought a farm auction 3 years ago needed more love then sitting outside covered in a tarp.

HOWEVER... with a remodel comes a budget.  And I always have a small one for any project I do.  I'm a penny pinching hillbilly.  So I collected items from my father's sheds, begged and bartered for wood, the sink, barn hinges.  And after installing a new window, moving electrical and some plumbing, and LOTS of oil... my grand total was... drum roll please...

 $650.78



Like I told my friend Robelyn, If anyone says they can't make a beautiful kitchen on a tight budget they have never been junkin' and re purposing before!!!

Hope you enjoyed my virtual tour!  Thanks for stoppin' by! :)
