When It's Finished!!

My kitchen...it's been rarely (if ever) seen on this blog.

It's one of those rooms that I just keep thinking "When it's finished"......When it's finished I will post pictures.......

Fully well knowing that nothing around here is ever truly "finished".

And since I have come to terms with the fact that we have a limited budget (nada, non exsitant!) and things will get done on their own time, I am FINALLY posting full views of my kitchen!

First there is the kitchen island. It's a cabinet I dug out of the trash last year. The marble top was a Craigslist find for $50. 

The chandelier I found a few years back at a yard sale for $2. 

The once yellow cabinet (Ebay for $30) has been given a fresh coat of white paint. The 1959 GE Stove was a FREE find on Craigslist.

The mirror was a couple of dollars at a yard sale.

We added some trim, side brackets and glass knobs on sale at Hobby Lobby for $1

 The house is old and the cabinets are wonky, and are too expensive to replace right now so I used a drop cloth to tack over them.

 The built in cabinet once had glass doors. When we moved in here though the glass was all broken. I covered them with fabric to hide our canned goods. (There's no pantry in here, limited cabinet space, and counter space)

The funny thing is that once I started taking the pictures and thinking about all the imperfections, I noticed how lovely my kitchen is, imperfections and all. So all that waiting for "when it's finished" just felt so silly!!
