okay, the painting story...

here are some before pictures of our kitchen.

we used a toxic substance known as TPS ..or TSP... i can't recall the name. anyhow we were told by an older sister of mine that not only does it work well as a cabinet cleaner/degreaser, but also it would prime our particle board cabinets and prep it for painting.

well the paint didn't want to stick. and it looked crappy.



so we had a notion about spray paint. we wiped off the big globs of regular paint...



then we spray painted the fronts of the cabinets .





and the outcome? aside from a few touch-ups...



it seems to be a-okay.

we are declaring this the LAST major project in the home-selling extravaganza. no, seriously.
