You guys. Turns out, getting parts of your kitchen remodeled (and then repeatedly walking in and out of said room) is better than waking up to check your stocking or Easter basket or Valentine envelope or birthday table pile (what?) in terms of Immediate Gratification Awesome Feelings.
Last week we got these ridonk cabinets resurfaced. This week? Oh my word, QUARTZ COUNTERTOPS.
Let’s review what we had been working with:
Man oh man, those cabinets are purty. That counter is a little wonky, though. Can we get a close-up? |
Yup, that sure is an impossible-to-remove stain. Boy, that must’ve been a joy to live with! |
I can’t stop staring at those rad cabinets! But there sure is a lot of that fugly countertop, huh? |
Warped, stained, unevenly seamed Formica. Let’s hear some offers, boys! |
Yeah, it’s over there too, offending my coffee maker. |
Peej had been fully prepared to use the jaws of life to remove the counters. Turns out, it’s super easy to remove a counter if it’s never been attached to anything, ever. |
Anyone need a die? Some shelf liner? How about a flat razor? (What kind of establishment have we stumbled upon?) |
P.J. uses a power saw in the kitchen. Sure, he’ll chase loud teens from our lawn and threaten car alarms in his boxers, but a sawing in the kitchen at 9pm? The girls’ll be fine. (They were.) |
Hey there, pretty lady. |
It’s so clean and sturdy and looks like a real kitchen where people could even live and prepare food! |
Here is where there was oh-so-recently a stained countertop. It is no longer. |
Let’s be in love forever. |
Next up: Backsplash! Water re-connection!
And that fun moment where I never let anyone use the kitchen ever again.
