  • Another day, another #diy!!! It may be safe to say that we both had on the rose colored glasses when we walked into this house and saw these metal kitchen cabinet straight out of a 1950's Sears Catalog!
    At first glance they looked pretty darn good, and it wasn't long before we had to take them down, store them away and all but forget about them for the next 8 months.
    But, the day has come where these bad boys are out of hibernation and ready for a second look. What do you think we are in for??? Smooth sailing or another project that challenges us and makes us question our sanity? Time will tell!

      Hi to one of our favorite pinecones! Oh my goodness you’re so right- after seeing them all laid out like that- we had the same exact thought. “This is A LOT of cabinets!” 🤣 we’ll get it done though!

    I like the metal I am sure you have googled them. But they first came out in 20s and we're popular from the 30s through the 50s. And are becoming popular again looks like a good call on keeping them have a great day.😊

      I’ve had a hard time finding a lot of info on the Homart ones! The house was moved to it’s current location in the 50’s so we’re *guessing* that’s when there from, but they definitely could be older!
      We sure hope they turn out ok!

    Definitely time for a haircut, CJ 🤭 And those Crocs are not OSHA approved young man 😂
    The cabinets are a TON of work but I believe it'll be worth it as everything ya'll have done this far has been! 😉
    A dark green would probably be good for the lower cabinets with natural wood shelf uppers. It would tie in nicely with the rest of the house. I'd also recommend fitting a well-sealed piece of wood into the sink base cabinet to cover the rusted cabinet floor while also adding a hidden gem of character!
    P.S. I'm finally almost caught up on ALL of your videos!! 😊
