When we're not playing outside, we're making plans for our new kitchen. I'm so excited and nervous about finally getting to renovate our own place. I've only gotten to see a little bit of the work my hubby's done in other people's homes and I can't wait to see how ours turns out - he's so good at what he does!
We've already got the cabinets and countertop, thanks to a job he did a few weeks back. We've also got flooring and appliances thanks to another job (he always asks homeowners if he can snag stuff they're going to be getting rid of - most of the time it's not very old and it's going to save us a huge chunk of change!)
I'll try to take photos of my floor and countertop samples soon so you guys get a sneak peek, but for now we'll start with layout. Here's what it looks like now:

And here's the plan:
We'll be turning our cramped, tiny living room/dining room/kitchen area into one big open room. I'll go into more details about what the changes will look like in future posts, but for now what do you think of the plan?
Yes! I love knocking down walls!
ReplyDeleteHow about kitchen counter space?
ReplyDeleteValerie, while it definitely won't have as much countertop space as other kitchens, it will have 2 more feet than I've got right now (and 2 more feet than the galley kitchen in the original floor plan has). We considered putting in a kitchen island to solve the countertop issue, but decided that we'd rather have a dining room table that could function as worktop than an island that had to be a dining room table.
