Kitchen Remodel, Pt II

So a lot has been done since my last post. We actually have cabinets now and can see light at the end of the tunnel. Now that they are in, hopefully everything else will fall in step and maybe we'll be done by mid-August (fingers crossed).

Here's more of the story:

The old entry way walls were removed

And all sheet rock was repaired, taped, floated, and textured - walls & ceiling.

We finally got our cabinets, which was an exciting day.Here are my helpers again.
And now, they've stained the island and caulked the cabinets in preparation for painting. (the splotches are sunspots shining in between the trees through the window. It really does look nice.

You should be able to click any picture if you want to see it larger.

Next up:
  • new windows are supposed to be installed tomorrow
  • trim (window trim, crown molding, and base boards) will be finished up tomorrow
  • Next week, the painters will finish the caulking and any other prep work and then begin painting walls, cabinets, and trim
  • Then tile on floors and backsplash
  • Granite counter tops installed
  • Sink and faucets installed
  • Appliances installed
So, we've got lots to do, but I am really hoping all things fall into place and it happens quickly. Stay tuned for the next update . . .
