not so avocado kitchen

Image
well the kitchen wound up more pyramid gold than retro avocado...it was more of a time crunch and the avocado paint didn't come out as well as we would have liked. plus to do the cabinets would have meant sanding and paint not just painting. i'm not so much about sanding...but i have some before and after pictures of where we are right now. BEFORE so... here's what we've done so far.. put in a floating cork floor over the existing tile (actually my dad installed it for us)  (that's dad's feet right there...THANKS DAD!!!) i painted the walls pyramid gold which was on of the original colors we chose to go with the retro avocado i was painting the cabinets.. (that's my future hubby) then mom and i went to home depot and some how she talked me into getting a new sink. its HUGE then there were stove issues. we hooked up the stove and smelled gas. so we got a new hose, but we couldn't get the regulater  (or something like that) off. here'
