It two weeks to get our drawer handles in - sure made it difficult to get into things. We really didn't use them until we had handles. For two weeks we were living out of boxes. This weekend we were cleaning out the sawdust and trying to find a "new home" for appliances and pots and pans. Still don't have everything rearranged yet.
I really like my new formica and cabinets. I have all slide out shelves and a flour and sugar drawer. The one cabinet door not on by the stove is our trash bin door. We are still waiting for that hardware to finish up.
There are still have two things that are needed to finish up- well three. The new cabinet above the stove needs installed, the kickplate at the bottom of the cabinets, and a new sink. I bought a new kitchen faucet set hoping we could get away with just that but no luck. My old sink is shallow (6") and where the old faucet was the stainless steel is black apparently from standing water over a number of years. Jordan Hurt is a plumber and been very helpful with upgrading our old plumbing at the kitchen sink.
It has taken me a while to get these pictures posted, sorry. The kids were all home for Christmas and had one last look at our mismatched kitchen cabinets. The "tearout" started the Monday following Christmas. What a mess it has been but well worth it!
It took dad and Skip Hurt half a day to tear out the old cabinets. I must say they were built very well and put in to last a lifetime! Here the base cabinets were put in and leveled.
