Now comes the hardest part

I wish this was the blog post that revealed the final project.... but it isn't.  We are so close though.  The only thing we have left to do is stain the rest of the cabinets, and accessorize.  This is the hardest part for me.  I have no idea how to decorate the kitchen now that it is almost finished.  I got inspired by this amazing recycled tin clock I saw at Hobby Lobby, but when I went back to purchase it, it was gone.

Now I am stuck, still love the clock, and love the idea, but don't know where to start.  I think I want to do a colorful, recycled metal theme, but I am not really having luck finding things that are catching my eye. So if anyone knows of any ideas, please send them my way.

So as for the kitchen progress...

Removed the wallpaper.  I know it was great, but we had to part with it.



















We have painted the molding black and attached to the tops of the cabinets.

Installed a new light fixture, nothing fancy.

Removed the posts in the opening that separates the kitchen and living room

Painted.  We went with two colors a darker color on the living room wall, and a lighter color on all the others.

Added outlet covers

Finished the hood.

It is so hard to believe that we were once here......

And here we are today.

Now onto decorating.  Volunteers?  Anyone?
