Here's a breakdown of the whole project though (replacing all the cabinets, redoing the lighting, and replacing the counters was really the expensive part): http://www.younghouselove.com/2008/01/all-about-the-benjamins/ xo, s

My husband and I are about to start our own home renovation on a foreclosure and are looking to open a few doorways.
