Finally Making some Headway!

As of March 25th, 2011

I've been neglecting updating the blog here, but I am making progress! Albeit, slow, progress none the less. I find it easiest at this time to tell the tale in pictures, so here goes...
These photos date from about March 5th through the 25th. I've gotten more done in the last few days (today is actually the 29th) I'll post more pictures soon.

Cabinet doors removed, frames sanded,
Primed and ready for paint


Under cabinet lighting added

Cabinets primed - Large cabinet in center beadboard wallpaper inside. (Planning to put glass in these doors!)

 Took a break from doors and took apart old gold fan and painted it in metalic silver paint to match door knobs.

My work station in the garage for putting trim on doors. (Love the barrowed saw! I want one!)

Boards measured and ready to apply trim.


Cutting the trim pieces - one at a time!
Measuring trim for EACH door!


Hard As Nails glue applied to each piece of trim..
...and a pin nailer to hold the pieces in place.
Doors sanded, trimmed and re-sanded all edges to make trim flush.


Glass in two middle doors and painted, other doors going up!

  1. How did you get the wood trim pieces off the top and bottom of the cabinets?
