Kitchen update number one

The kitchen is moving along.  It's slow.  But it's moving.  

I got all the frames of cabinets primed, and then painted the lower frames black.  It's hard to see in the pictures below, but it already looks so much better in the black than it did in the wood color. I am getting impatient to have the whole thing done, but there is still so much more to do.  Also, that stove just looks so much uglier now that the cabinets are painted.  

I also have the lower cabinet doors and drawers done.  They look so pretty and black!  One more coat (maybe two) for the front of the doors, and they will be ready to hang back up.  I want to buy new hinges and door hardware, but I need to wait.  My budget can't really take that purchase at this time. 

I am also planning to take out the gross brown (fake wood) liner in the cabinets and replace it with the pretty blue liner below.  Eventually.  Or never.  We'll see how I feel.
