New Kitchen

Something really exciting happened here at home this week - our kitchen remodel is complete!  Well as complete as it's going to be for now.  Hoping to have new appliances installed next year, but I'll enjoy all the other new stuff now!

This house had UGLY laminate counters and UGLY linoleum floors when we bought it.  In 2014, we had new floors put in the house aside from the bathrooms and bedrooms.  I was so glad to get rid of the funky floors, but I felt like it made the countertops look even more out of place. Fast forward a year and I begged for new countertops.  I argued the case that if we aren't moving out of here anytime soon, let's make this place how we want it, something we're proud of.  

 Lots of fun memories in the kitchen - might as well make it a place you enjoy being in


 Don't miss this at all!

We made countless trips to Lowe's and Home Depot, second guessed our design choices more than once, (I did anyway, Mike was pretty flexible with my indecisiveness) but we finally settled on quartz countertops and ceramic mosiac subway tile for the backsplash.

We need to do some touch up paint and switch out the electrical socket face plates but that's about it for now.  Of course now I want to tackle our fireplace and bathrooms, but I've been advised by Mr. of the house to tap the brakes for now.  I'll keep working on him. :)
