I haven’t been keeping up with the remodeling changes here on this blog, because they’re coming fast and furious now. It’s beginning to look like an actual house. If it starts to look any more like an actual house, I may move in much, much earlier than originally planned.
The cabinets are in! The wood floors are in (and hand-scraped, and stained, and coated with whatever they coat hardwood floors with). Lots of interior painting and staining and what have you is happening.
This is the current front of the house. And…this is pretty much what it’s going to look like (save some wrought-iron work that needs to be added, and lights.) The plaster is up. The color is great. We are loving the look of the house.
Here we see one wall of the kitchen. The big hole is where our fridge will be going. Since this picture was taken, the island has been installed, so it looks a little more cramped now.
The other side of the kitchen L. The space is for my range, still sadly unpacked.
Just to the right of the above picture is the pantry/built-ins corner. For example, the built-in china cabinet.
And the pantry. This is one wall of the pantry. The other wall is shelves from floor to ceiling. Yes, my pantry rocks.
One wall of my office. Just look at those bookshelves. If you have to have built-ins, make them gorgeous, you know?
The other side of the office, a.k.a. the side I’ll look at every day.
Most of the cabinetry (shelves, cabinets, bathroom vanities, etc.) looks like this:
The painted stuff looks like my office. The stained wood (like the doors, or the windowsills), will look like this:
Yeah. ROCK.
This house is going to be great. I CAN’T WAIT.
