Kitchen

Wow! What a transformation!! I guess living with it, it's easy to forget just how much it's changed over time. But seeing those pictures together sure brought it home and I had to add a little more commentary. Still planned for the backsplash, when I find some money, is glass tile. Also planned for that far off day of having the money to work with is molding for the top of the cabinets and getting rid of the decidedly not beautiful shop light that shines on the task area.

The kitchen is already one of my favorite rooms to hang out in. It's very comfortable with plenty of space to work and/or enjoy a snack. The window looks out in a west-southwest direction and we can see the most beautiful sunsets over the Oquirrh mountains. Though you can't see it in the picture, there's a pocket door just to the right of the range that opens into a formal dining room at the front of the house. At the opposite side is another pocket door that opens into the back hall, stairs to the basement and back door. Sanding and restaining those pocket doors is another project still on the list...
