Kitchen Ideas

Demo on the back of the house is now complete and ready for the leveling phase next week.  Exciting phase?  Not really, but a very important step toward the exciting choices to be made in a home renovation--counter tops, paint and other selections.

Looks we love:
white subway tile with dark grout.  Am I the only one who hates how dirty grout can get?




Black honed granite for the perimeter of the kitchen.




Marble island



Rejuvenation pendant

Can't wait to spend endless hours in our new kitchen!

Bungalow Renovation

July starts the beginning of our home renovation.  We are beyond excited to get this process started!  After a year and a half of interviewing builders and architects, working with our architect on plans and waiting for our builder's availability, we are finally ready.  With a total of two bedrooms and one bathroom, this little family definitely ran out of room.

Since our home was built in 1929, we expected to discover interesting finds behind the sheetrock:

Gorgeous ship lap

Not so gorgeous wallpaper

and two different layers of linoleum over the beautiful hardwood floors in the kitchen.

It's amazing what a difference one week makes.

Can't wait to see what progress is made this week!
