"He" being my husband.... and "YES" to painting our oak cabinets white!I had already taken down the curtains and a few decorative items before I remembered to take the before photos....but yes, sad to say, it really is that ugly
So anyway, I'm thinking that once the cabinets are painted we're going to need new counter tops
And new counter stools for sure!
I like the retro look of my existing hardware so those may be a keeper
Though I'm definitely thinking stainless steel appliances...It's a ton of work but I'm on a mission!

it's going to look just gorgeous! I painted my oak cabinets a creamy white several years ago and have NEVER regretted it. it just transformed the kitchen instantly! So glad Mr. Passionate said "yes." can't wait to see the finished look. now get painting!:)
We will be doing the same thing this year. We bought our home new 4 yrs. ago with the plan to paint the oak cabinets white. We are going to paint them not only in our kitchen but entire house...bath, laundry, hallway! Lots of work. I will look forward to seeing what you do and how they turn out!
You go girl! Although I will say that your kitchen is beautiful now!
Would love to paint mine , but for the moment I am too lazy. Ha!
Blessings~
Good for you, Diane! I have oak cabinets, too, so I'm looking forward to seeing yours transformed.
How exciting! It's going to look so wonderful! I look forward to watching the transformation!

That was nice of your hubby to say yes! I had to show this to my husband, I knew he'd get a chuckle out of it. I bet it's going to look fabulous!!!

That's great! Your kitchen looks similar to mine and we just decided a few days ago to paint it white and get new counter tops. I'm excited to watch your project progress. I'm a new follower. Stop by my blog and enter my first giveaway.

You are gonna LOVE it white! Can't wait to see it!
Glad to hear your man's in agreement! Sometimes it's tough to convince our better halves that the result of our vision will be worth all the effort. I can't wait to see the 'after' look - I'm sure it will be fabulous as all your other projects. :)

I can relate! We also have oak kitchen cabinets, so you won't see any pics of my kitchen on my blog. We have the stainless appliances, but I don't think I want to tackle the big changeover to white. Can't wait to see your redo! It will look great.
