kitchen makeover

I want to do fix up my kitchen.

Here are some before shots from when we first looked at the house.



We've been slowly getting our cheap old nasty appliances changed over to nicer quality, black appliances. We only have the stove and over-the-stove microwave to replace now. I should take some photos now so you can see the difference just that makes already.

I would like to remove the overhead cabinets in that first photos and to paint the rest of the cabinets white. I found a guide on painting the cabinets.http://www.doityourself.com/stry/paintkitchencabinets.

I want to replace the counter tops and floor, but I haven't made any decisions on what I want to replace them with just yet.

I would like to paint the walls and put in a tile backsplash.

I need to do all of this as economical as possible. We don't plan on living in this house for too many more years, but I also want it to look nice and be a decent quality so we can enjoy it and when the time comes it'll be attractive to potential buyers.
