So here we are. The grand kitchen reveal. I'm sure you can read the excitement in my words.....
Why so eh? Well, probably because our kitchen isn't completely done. I'll detail that for you in a bit.
Just so we remember what we started with:
|
haha just now noticing my spelling error...oops |
And here's the 'finished' product {taaaaddddaaaa}
|
This is the view from the dining....where those barstools are? That was a wall |
|
Different view rom the dining room |
|
Full on view from the dining room - in this view you can also see the jacked up floor.... |

|

On to the butler's pantry {probably my favorite room in the house}

The white door goes to the playroom, the girls love their 'secret' door |
Even though I don't seem thrilled, I do love my kitchen and I have no regrets about the remodel. Would I have done a few things a little different, probably, but I still love it as is. I am still doing some decorating, well, I say doing. More like waiting for the bills to calm down so I can afford to do some decor. Ha!
So what's the issue you make ask? Well, the floors. The contractor's were 99% done and they crack some floor tiles. Floor tiles that no one can find anywhere....What's the plan? Completely redo the entire floor. Yep, the whole shebang. Tear it all up and put down something new. Now you can see why I'm not jumping for joy. To have my house covered in plastic again for floor demo and to not have my kitchen for about a week.....but, we are going to do it, maybe in the fall. That's the plan anyways.
Next time on the blog, I will detail the budget and how we blew way past some budget items and how we saved on others. I'll try my best to keep it real. I always read about other's kitchen remodels and I think 'no way, there's no way that was all done for that low price....' Sometimes I think they forget to add in labor....but you will all see.
