Change


After living in our old (circa 1963) house for almost 7 years, we are going to remodel our kitchen. What a relief! The kitchen itself is ok because it is very big but also very outdated. Not enough counter space, cabinets and crammed into one side of the room are just some of the problems we will address in this makeover. In the above pic, you can just make out the soffet (drop ceiling) that we want to rip and raise back up about 6 inches so it will be even to the rest of the room. We're going to add an island and have the range on the side where Joshua us sitting. I'll be getting beech cabinets, granite counter and a tile floor with some new appliances and lighting. I know how these projects can drag on but the guy says we should have it before Christmas...we'll see and keep our fingers crossed.




How would you like this lovely linoleum that never looks clean or attractive? Out it goes!!



Time for the cheesy formica counter to head to the landfill! I can't wait for demolition to begin! I'll be documenting the transformation in the weeks ahead.
