My kitchen remodel

Moms View Message Board: General Discussion: Archive August 2007: My kitchen remodel

If you want a good laugh :)
My kitchen remodel is on The Home Depot web site

NOTE: They printed it with mistakes (sidebar should be sideboard).
Addison was supposed to be mentioned.
I am surprised the before (black/white kitchen) was not shown or the completed picture of the kitchen. The "before" pictures are actually during my remodel.
You CAN laugh about my picture. It is an old picture of me. She emailed me requesting that I immediately send her a close-up picture. That was the only close-up (without people in the picture) that I could find. My hair is shoulder length now. It was even longer--I just had it cut last month.

Yvonne, that's so great! And you & your daughter are adorable!

Thanks for posting the link!

I checked it out. Having seen ALL of your before and after pics, I wish they had shown the complete *before* and the complete *after*! That REALLY would have shown how much you did. You know MY opinion of Home Depot these days.....LOL......but congratulations!!!!

By Yjja123 on Friday, August 17, 2007 - 06:58 pm:

LOL. Karen, you sound like my sister. She is annoyed that the pictures do not show the drastic change and amount of work I did.

How cool, Yvonne!

By Karen~admin on Saturday, August 18, 2007 - 08:13 am:

I don't understand *why* they wouldn't include a pic of the *real* before?!? IMO, excluding that, it fails to give a true picture of how much work you actually DID do.

By Yjja123 on Saturday, August 18, 2007 - 10:45 am:

I agree. I emailed them but have not heard back.

Wow, we have celebrity amoung us! Congratulations!! :)

By Yjja123 on Sunday, August 19, 2007 - 10:06 am:

Celebrity? :) Not quite! LOL.
I was interviewed 3X for a commercial but no luck.
The ONLY reason I would do a commercial is for more $ to do more home repairs. I desperately want to gut my master bathroom.
