Oooh, Gutter, that's so exciting. I dream of renovations. We almost did a mini one in our master bath back in March, but kept hesitating. I'm glad we hesitated cause that's when I get temporarily laid off. It helps alot that you have an awesome live in handyman. Do you hire him out?!! lol

Good job!It looks GREAT!Gorgeous colour.Can't wait to see what the cabinets look like on,I am sure they'll look FAB!

YAY the cabinets are installed, DF said it looks great (he said I'll LOVE my pantry Smile/happy

), but I have to wait 'til I get home to see it and take pictures. He's already working on moving the stove and fridge in there and moving our computer desk (table, lol) in the meantime since we're not done painting. The only thing that will lack is the countertop and sink which we need to order still...

Wow, Gutter, your new kitchen looks fantastic!!! I love love love the green painted walls with the dark wooden cabinets. So beautiful. It's very interesting, cause you totally matched my taste on this - cause I love dark wood and that would have totally been what I picked out. Looking great - I am sure you will enjoy your new kitchen. Smile/happy

Thanks everyone!!!

I know it looks kind of funny with no cabinets around the corner and over the fridge, but we couldn't afford it and hope within a few years we can close it off Smile/happy

As for now, this is more cabinet space then I could EVER imagine, I don't know how I'm going to fill all my cabinets Smile/happy

I honestly didn't notice the "missing" cabinets in that corner! I had to scroll back up to look! I think it looks fantastic!!!!

When will you get your counter? Are you doing a decorative back splash or a standard splash made of the counter material?!

It's beautiful! I'll bet it feels like a totally new house in there! : )

Gutter · Gutter on Thu Jun 18, 2009 3:55 pm

Thanks Lou Lou Smile/happy

I want to go with tile for a backsplash, but we'll probably only tackle it another time (but I think we got some given to us, so we can look thru our boxes of whatever we may have).

We still haven't ordered the countertop since the measurements can take as long as 48 hours to get to the store. They are suppose to call us, then we order, after we order, it should be in within 1 week Smile/happy

I'll let you know once we order, then the countdown begins Smile/happy
