Nice picture Gail!:) You look like Nicole when she’s in her shed cutting. Love seeing the progress your making on your kitchen and (yay!) that you were able to get a compressor and sprayer! I can’t wait to see how it all turns out.

Gail you ARE patient! I am so excited to see the white in your kitchen, that alone is going to be fantastic! I love how you used the ladder to hold the cabinet fronts, just genius.

Gail, it is looking wonderful. You are such a perfectionist and I love that — it means I’m learning from the best! It’s will be marvelous.

Wow, I never realized that! Thanks for letting me know, I think I changed it so you can see my email address now. Thanks for the info. If you like the sprayer and didn’t have a hard time using it, it’s worth a shot! Thanks for the info! -Kristen

Wow, what a lot of work, but I do agree that I would not want it to chip so the time and work will be worth it. When you said that you used your leaf blower, did you know you can get a special nozzle for the compressor to use for blowing the dust off of stuff?

Ooh! Can you dish more details on the sprayer? I’ve been wanting to buy one, but know nothing about which ones are good. Do you like the one you have? Would your recommend it? Pros/cons? THANKS!

Is this the one you have?

Your kitchen is going to be beautiful. I’ve never cared for painted cabinets but you’ve changed my mind with the Dutch Boy paint. I love that color. Can’t wait to see the final unveiling.

These are turning out great Gail. I still need the paint gun but I have the compressor. We have a small one and then got a big one from hubbys dad. Yeah! Are you not painting the backs then?
