Kitchen Renovation - Week 5

5/25/2015

Hi Friends! I hope everyone is having an enjoyable holiday weekend so far! We have been busy around here trying to finish up a bunch of projects. Why is it always a never-ending list? Ha! Well, at least it keeps us busy.

The kitchen renovation is chugging along. This week we had Samuel with Restoration Counseling in to fix-up our peninsula. He did a wonderful job on the sink surround so we decided we would have him take care of this project, as well. This is probably a task that hubs and I could have tackled, but we wanted a real craftsman to work on this since it's one of the focal points of the kitchen. I really wanted this area to be better defined and stand out on its own. I showed him a picture on Houzz that was exactly what I wanted and he did it perfectly! Here are a few photos.

Sam made all of the decorative edges and the wide plank panels with a router. He pays attention to the details and that made it worth the extra we spent to have him complete this job. He really does beautiful work.

Here's Chunk checking out Samuel's handiwork!
Thank you for checking out the latest update! Next week there will be another significant change. PAINT! The cupboards painting is starting on Thursday. That is really going to brighten up the space and I am SO excited to get it done. Big changes; sometimes they are a good thing!
So, it's a quick and short post this week. Hubs and I have to get back to tackle the hoarders nest, aka the garage! Hugs my friends, see you next week!

Linking Up At These Great Parties!!

That Sam is priceless! He did a fantastic job.
The island before was...er...a little bleh. The transformation is so super, I started smiling when I saw it. :)

Also: lol at Chunk staring at Sam. That is one serious stare there, "I am not so sure about the liberties I see you taking, Sam. I'll be watching you!"

Haha, I know, bleh is a good word for it! It wasn't bad, just very plain and boring. I'm happy you like it!
Chunk always has some kind of expression on his face. He is continuously cracking us up!!

That looks great! I love the texture you added with the planking. We did that to our "blah" island by using wainscoting, but I really like your wide planks! Fantastic job!

Thanks Wendy!! I love wainscoting, too. We have it in our powder room and it looks really good. I do really love the wider planks, though! Thanks for stopping by and commenting!

Picking out cabinets and countertops can be overwhelming, but using a designer from the beginning is a great suggestion to help navigate the decision-making process.
