Kitchen Makeover

It's been a while, yes I know, we have been sick and I haven't felt like doing much but watch movies all day long. Although, I think we are pulling out of it and getting better so I have no excuse now.
I have been waiting FOREVER to show this off so this will make up for lost time!
In our neighborhood they have a 'big trash day' once a month, where you can basically put anything you can't fit in a trash can on the side of the road and someone comes to pick it up and takes it away for you. Well before official trash guys come it's free game! So this is what we picked up a while ago for FREE!

It was in alright shape but the plastic is old and was cracking off the handles,

and the stickers were all gone.

So I took it and turned it in to this!

Water and ice dispenser

Dishwasher buttons.

Oven and burners dials.

Made burners, with tin foil and orange paper.

Added buttons for the microwave.

Covered the handles with packing tape and then Mod Podged fabric over them.

Then made it so there was a landscaped picture in the window.

I did spend $1 on the light above the stove.

I love how it turned out!

So thanks person in the neighborhood that didn't want this anymore, we love it!

You are so great & creative Hillary. :)

Side note: I dont know why, but you've been in my dreams a couple of times this last week. 1, I dreamt you were having a baby girl & you called me to bring you something down to the hospital & 2, you called us on a Friday afternoon & invited us to dinner that night, but we still lived here in AR., so funny! :)
PSS. I'm not telling you this bcuz I think they mean anything, I just thought they were interesting & funny. :)
