Painting the Kitchen

We have lived in our house over three years. We are finally painting the kitchen! We are a little slow. And even though we've been working on it for about 2 weeks we are only about half way done. I guess we are really slow! Andy, my mom and dad are really the ones doing all the work. I am the one doing all the complaining/belly aching.I have to thank my friend Corey for her inspiration and tips from her blog here and here.  (She is beyond amazing!)
 

Here are some before shots:

Wow, this was so bad!

The cupboards were in pretty bad shape.

Mom started by painting the ceiling. Then she added a coat of primer on the bottom half and Dad cut in with the blue paint on top.

We may paint part of the table white...

Week 2 we focused on the bottom cabinets/ cupboards.

We are going to get a new door and paint it white. We are also trying to figure out if we can take out the desk here and put in a pantry instead.
