Our Kitchen is Completed!

HOORAY!!!!! we are done with our kitchen and I’m so  LOVIN’ my new kitchen. 

A picture of the before……

Our kitchen remodel started a few months ago when Melissa at the Inspired Room hosted a Procrastinators Party.  The plans  at that time were to:

• Add crown molding at the top of the cabinets
• Install glass doors on a few top cabinets
• Paint the cabinets white
• Add hardware to the cabinets
• Install new countertops
• Install a new sink
• Install a new faucet
• Install a new tile floor

On December 29th, the final phase of our kitchen remodel was completed with the installation of our countertop, sink and faucet. 

We did indeed accomplish everything we set out to do.  We added crown molding to the top cabinets,  painted the cabinets white,  added the hardware to the cabinets, installed a new countertop, sink , facet and a new ceramic tile floor. 

I spent a lot of time at Lowes trying to decide on a countertop.  I ended up going with Laminate and  I have to say, I love my decision!  

I love my ceramic double sink and goose neck faucet.  Before I had a stainless steel single sink. 

In a previous post I mentioned  adding an island coming off this wall.   Well I changed my mind.  I didn’t want to make my kitchen feel boxed  in.

So, instead I decided on this corner cabinet.    It’s okay for now until I find something that I think will work better.  I’ll be tweaking this cabinet for sure. 

Another before…….

and after.  I even painted the table, chairs and the lighting. 

I love how we went on a diagonal with the floor.  It was a lot of work but in the end it was well worth it. 

Well there you have it!  It seems like it took forever but in the end it was worth waiting for.  Eventually I would like to add a back splash and a few glass cabinet doors but that will just have to wait till spring.  For now I’m just enjoying what we have done! 

Blessings,

Gail
