The flooring’s delivered, the cabinets ordered and the appliances picked out. John is ready to start gutting the kitchen.
This weekend I have been busy moving our kitchen items to other places in the house and trying to come up with a make shift kitchen that we can live with until the new kitchen is finished.
This will be our last (and most expensive) major renovation project. It is also the one I’m most excited about. I mean who doesn’t like a new kitchen.
The cabinets that you see hanging were hand-built by my grandfather and father, many years ago. In a way it will be sad to tear them out, as these are probably some of the last cabinets in the neighborhood built by my grandfather.
This house was hand-built by its original owners, the kitchen built by a local craftsman, and now is being renovated by its second owners. There is a lot of blood (literally), sweat and tears in this house. It gives it a warm, cozy feeling that I hope its new owners enjoy.
