Hi Kitchen, Let me Introduce you to 2010!

Yay - I have finally have a modern-day kitchen - woo! Here is some before and after. Note: I realize that my "old" kitchen was a 90's kitchen, not trying to be dramatic. However, I feel the 'before' kitchen SCREAMED 90's and that the new one is much better for the new millennium. Just sayin'. Here goes....

What we did:

• Had granite installed.
• Had a new sink and faucet installed.
• Bought and installed new hardware for all drawers and cabinets.
• Bought stainless steel appliances to replace white appliances (had them installed; had plumber fix gas line).

What we didn't do:

• Replace backsplash. If I replaced it i'd want white subway tile. But it's already white tile so it's hard to justify changing it for a different shape!

What's left to do:

• Rip out all lighting. Have two pendants installed over island. Have one pendant installed over sink. Have pot lights put in kitchen and under-cabinet lighting installed.
• Have ceiling painted white.
• Have crown installed.

The last project isn't just the kitchen - it's that WHOLE room. It's going to be the last big project we do and I think it's going to make a big impact!!

What do you think?!
