Well, at that price, my kitchen might just stay un-remodeled!! I played with a calculator I found at Lowes; it came up with $6000 for cabinets (cheapest builder grade in a white paint for 9x11 L-shape) and $800 for laminate countertop. So probably around $12,000 plus labor for what I would want to do.

Not sure I’d recoup that cost when I sell. I think that kind of money could be better spent spread out over several other projects.

It’s amazing what a coat of paint will do for sprucing up kitchen cabinets.

My daughter-in-law just painted her cabinets. They have some pretty cool paints, stains, and techniques you can use now.

A really good article here, comparing Nazi Germany to today’s Democrats. From the American thinker. Sometimes they act conservative I guess.

Yeah we were thinking we could find a cheaper way. Go with something other than Kraftmade. Their stuff is nice but you pay for it. I think I’ll get some numbers from other places as well. But the cost has definitely gone up from five years ago.

We could make do with the old cabinets but I don’t know if it would just end up looking more hideous trying to hide them under some pretty granite.
