Just in case you think it's all play and no work having your kitchen remodeled (with a great contractor) after making your choices for paint colors, counter tops, cooktops, microwaves, tile backsplashes, knobs, pulls, sinks, faucets, cooktop hoods . . . are you tired yet? It is VERY exciting to see all the laborious decisions come together in fact it's downright magical!
day 4 - ready for the drawer fronts and cabinet doors
cool contraptions for everything to dry - VERY STINKY!
where does all this JUNK go? What a mess!
LOVE those knobs and drawer pulls! Counter tops should be coming by the end of the week then the sinks, cooktop, hood, oven, etc can all go in. About the time everything gets put away the floors are going to be refinished with a little stain . . . that will take about a week. The living room built in cabinets are going to get a fresh new look too . . . I found the BEST picture of EXACTLY what I want for those . . . so now we added that as the final touch. SHHHHH don't tell but I have a few other things to finish it off we just aren't going to share those with Bob yet! Now I will see if Bob ever reads my blog - LOL! xoxx, Renée
PS thanks for all the encouragement and your comments - I love getting to share the excitement!



I am SO envious!! It is BEAUTIFUL!!!

Beautiful, and so glad you have a great working relationship w/your contractor, there are some great skilled craftsmans in this country, and looks like you picked one!

Wow! This is giving me a glimpse of what mine will look like this spring :) The colors are close, the knobs are almost identical! And I can't wait.
Not too excited about where all the stuff goes in the meantime:/

I love the new colors and knobs, wonderful look.
I like the simple look in a kitchen, or the farm look.
