Plaster is F&%$ing heavy.

Sooo. Last night was not fun. Our plaster repair friend, Ryan, told us that pretty much our entire hallway has reached its lifespan, and we will have to get rid of it.

Here is the hallway before..

       

Here's after Kyle got the fun part of ripping out the plaster....

See how much it crumbled? I guess he was right!!! 

                                     

          Then i got to take out all my aggression on the lath. Which was kinda fun. The cleanup? Not fun.
Butttt here's where we are at at this point. Just gotta cut the lath that leads to the next room, and then we are ready for drywall!

  

Kitchen Update : Cabinets are up!

After quite a few hours, and sadly... 3 people.. our cabinets are up and running! The hardware looks amazing. The cabinets look brand new. I have to take some new pictures, as these were taken from Kyle's phone, but it'll do for now.
Heres the kitchen before...

Hardware = ugly. (or missing)

Cabinets = ugly. (or missing)

 Here is the kitchen after the painted cabinets and new hardware went up... its really coming along. I  love how much the space has brightened up. We still have to put up the subway tile backsplash, as well as a countertop we can hopefully both agree on :) But here it is so far!
