New Job, New Office 10.27.14

In October, I was promoted from classroom teacher to Curriculum Support Teacher (ind of like an instructional coach). I got my very own, big, yellow office! My mom helped me with the makeover! I had a challenge of matching turquoise, pressed wood cabinets. Before Photos:

5.25.12 Sunroom Redo

This is my sunroom and sewing/craft room. It is stark white and could use some warm color. After: much better!

2.9.11 Kitchen Redo

This is not my kitchen but the cabinets are almost the exact same color as the ones in my kitchen. Time for a makeover! I did not want to take apart and sand my cabinets (lazy, right?) so I chose to use this Zissner cover stain. It is amazing stuff! You can find it at Lowe's. It covers and creates a surface that will be ready for your paint! http://www.lowes.com/pd_192480-90-3501_0 __    Here is my kitchen with a base coat in process. I decided to do two coats just to be sure my surface was prepared.    After one evening of drying time, I started painting my cabinets. I decided to go with Valspar paint from Lowe's. I chose Kettle Black .             After two coats of Kettle Black, I covered my cabinets with a coat of Valspar clear coat . This gave my cabinets another layer of protection.   Here are my finished cabinets! I am very pleased with the final product!...
