Upper Cabinets Part 1

 **Yes, our blog is still under construction.  I won't bore you with the details, but Wix (the platform we've been hosting our blog on) has been melting down and not allowing me to upload blogs so we started using Blogger but it's missing the "email notification" feature that Wix had, so we are trying out some workarounds.  Until then, we are trying to make due, sorry for the workarounds!** Anyway, back to the good stuff.  Last week we took the week off from blogging, not because we weren't working on the house (let's be real, we're ALWAYS working on the house), but because the work isn't really exciting.  Yes, the CHANGES are exciting, but the process is all tiny details, small fixes, and layers and layers of paint.  But, Scott has finally deemed the kitchen ceiling finished! Let's take a walk down memory lane to see the transformation, shall we? Here was the ceiling with the soffit (bulkhead? I still don't know).  Originally the ceiling h...

Test Post- Site under construction

 We are going through some changes here at Do It Like Dittchelle, and not just changes on our home! Our blog platform was being finnicky so we are looking for a replacement host and an easy way to subscribe. 

 This isn't a "real" post, just something to test out the capabilities of subscribing through follow.it.  



Hopefully soon we'll be back to regularly-scheduled programming :)

Kitchen Cabinets- Part 12- The Final, Final Cabinet

Doo de do doo, doo de do do doo (me, humming the tune of "the final countdown"). I can't help it, I'm positively giddy! It took us 12 blog posts over about 4 months, but we are here: the final (lower) cabinet is done! Yes, yes, I know we still have the pantry and the uppers, but for just a brief moment I'm basking in the glow of a completed step! This week something magical happened that we didn't think would happen for a long time and that made this joy possible: we found our paint! More accurately, Scott found our paint at a contractor's location of Sherwin Williams and they saved a gallon for us. He said when the clerk brought it out he held it triumphantly in the air. I think he understood our struggle! New paint in hand, we were able to paint the final cabinet door for the lazy susan. Three coats on each side later, with sanding in between, and our door was ready to be assembled and hung! One thing we haven't talked much about is handle/knob/pull ...
