What a huge difference! I even LIKE the stone around the doorway now, and I hated it before. :-) I agree that the backsplash would be my next fic. What a great solution, though.

It looks fantastic! Love the wall color with it, too. I used gel stain on my cabinets and my kitchen actually looks pretty similar to yours, including the backsplash with its days numbered.
My DIy project took a solid 6 weeks to complete, though. And, truth be told, I still have to do the inside of the doors on our little desk area. The idea of staining more makes me groan. I'm so over it all! Your 3 days sounds so appealing!
How much did it cost you to have the cabinets professional painted? I'm just curious what that would cost.
$4500 for the kitchen plus a built in desk area I didn't take a picture of.
The company I went with was the highest estimate I got. I went with them because painting cabinets is primarily what they do, as opposed to painters that mainly paint walls but sometimes paint cabinets. I think it was worth it, the finish looks like a factory finish.
I agree with you..... Go with the company that specifically does cabinets. It is such a transformation! Enjoy your new kitchen!
