How to Paint Kitchen Cabinets White in 5 Days for $150

We thought about having our kitchen cabinets painted for the last couple of years and put it off due to the high cost (I heard $2500-$3800 for our area). That was just not what I wanted to spend! We did the entire project for $150 and bought the best paint that I could find along with the products that were highly recommended. I could have probably done it for $100 but I wanted for it to be done right, for it to look amazing and to last for years to come.

Before

After!

The whole project took 5 days. I’m not talking about 5 lazy days but about 5 days of working most of each day working on the cabinets. Our motivation to get them done quickly was that the kids would be grabbing the items out of the open cabinets and I wanted our house back in order quickly. Plus, I couldn’t wait to see the results!

I remember when I first got back into reading as an adult. I was a new dietitian at my first real job and wanted something to do during my lunch break. After hearing many good things about the Fifty Shades series of books, I decided to try them out for myself. My attention was quickly piqued. I read the series of three books so quickly and couldn't stop reading them. I remember one day, I was sitting outside on a beautiful summer day on my lunch break reading when my boss's boss asked me what I was reading. I'll never forget the shade of red that my face turned that day!


When I found out that the Fifty Shades series was being turned into movies, I was so thrilled! I knew that a date night was in order and that this Chocolate Peanut Butter Greek Yogurt Dip would be the perfect snack. I've enjoyed watching each of the movies and until now, had not seen Fifty Shades Freed. When I found out that it was coming out, I picked up the Fifty Shades Freed (Blu-ray combo pack + exclusive packaging + photo gallery inside) at my local Walmart and decided to have a date night at home with my husband watching the movie.

The weather has finally warmed up here in Michigan and we are loving our time spent outside. After being cooped up all winter long, getting to go outside without 12 layers on feels like such a treat! I wanted to share some of the things that the kids, Troy and I are doing outside this spring and summer.
