Kitchen Remodel

My husband John and I decided that our kitchen needed a serious remodel. We wanted to give it a face lift without spending a lot of money. One of biggest sore spots were the cabinets. They were an awful dark stained color with lots of scratches and colored pictures from our son. At one point he was going through a stage of writing his name in black marker on anything and everything he could. Enough about that. So we decided that we wanted to go with a distressed, old farm house look. I painted the cabinets a sage green and then scuffed them up with sand paper. I then applied a black glazed based paint to them to help them look dirty and distressed. They turned out pretty cool. It's amazing what a little bit of paint can do to help a room be transformed.
