As my mom said, "there's just something about the Spring". It makes you want to get things in order, complete projects you've been thinking of for awhile, and just do some STUFF...it is energizing.
Well, we are feeling the effects. We went to Ikea this saturday and the Home Depot and Lowes on sunday. I don't think we've been to the big box stores for at least a few months now.
We found the perfect cabinet door/drawer handles. We are going to replace the old ones with the new ones, and we are also talking about moving the cabinets up and replacing the wall cabinets with 42" ones that go to the ceiling. We did some pricing for that, and since our cabinets are pretty cheap as it is, it looks like it will only cost about $300. Then we can get a microwave for above the stove to free up some counter space, and then we can get a new dishwasher, and then a new sink and new countertop, and then....
You can see where this is going. One thing leads to another. We do have some money budgeted for home improvements, but certainly not enough to do all this stuff right away. I personally like the little changes that have big impact but are cheap. The cabinet pulls is one example of this. I'll post a picture when we get them all on. We'll move along as we can afford these things.
