kitchen update

The hard work of staining and finishing the new cabinets has begun.  Of course we are in the middle of a severe cold snap which means we can't do this project on the porch as we had planned and the stove and furnace are running non-stop to keep us warm.  If you've never done a project like this before what that means is lots more dust floating right down on your project.  plenty of steel wool and elbow grease will take care of the dust.  Right now the newly finished cabinets are in the living room and bed room.  We just left little trails to walk through.  Two full weeks and about 75 hours and the cabinets are all stained, antiqued  and sealed.  I may do a coat of rub on polyurethane. After every thing is in place, I'm sure there will be places that will need a little touch up.
