In The Home Stretch
I'm on pins and needles folks. Granite countertops are going in tomorrow
(tomorrow!) and appliances will be in at the end of the week. That means we
will have a functional kitchen soon.
HandyMan worked his tail off to get the
trims and baseboards finished. It was a bit of a hassle because our new
drywall is thinner than what was there originally so the door frames sat out
from the drywall. But HandyMan, being the perfectionist architect that he is,
shimmed everything up and made sure all the awkward door trims lined up. I'll
post some pictures of the trims and granite tomorrow, but in the mean time,
here's some of my favourite details in the new kitchen.
Glass Kitchen Cabinet Doors
The ribbed glass door fronts...Full extension drawers with dovetail joints AND soft close. Plus, the cabinets are frameless construction so the doors cover the entire front of the cabinet box.

Love the handles, but the S.O. won't.
ReplyDeleteThose dovetail drawers are sweeet.
If I could get the flatpack kitchen cabinet suppliers to get their act together I woulda been ahead of you :)

I am absolutely loving everything...I can't wait to see the finished product!
ReplyDeleteIt all looks fantastic! Almost makes me want to build a kitchen all over again...not. Totally not. But yours is looking beautiful. Good luck in the home stretch!
ReplyDeleteLove it, especially the handles and those dovetailed drawers - that's craftmanship.
ReplyDeleteWow, no detail over looked! I can imagine with a kitchen in progress such as that, you can't wait to be cooking up your own creations!
ReplyDeleteLove it all. Can't wait to see the finished product. And I am in love w/ those drawer pulls--so sleek and unique!
ReplyDeletewow - a finished kitchen - we can only dream!
ReplyDeleteretro... I gave you so much lead time. I've still got backsplash to install. I'm sure you'll catch up!
ReplyDeletemrs.french, freckles chick... I can't wait to see the finished room either. This room has just dragged on, lol.
ReplyDeleteThanks Marilyn! And having been through this one - yeah, I don't want to do another kitchen reno either ;)
ReplyDeletethe 'sneak peeks' are great!
ReplyDeletePull out spice drawer?? I'm in love!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see the whole finished look!!

GMS - and I've got a bigger 9" one beside the sink for baking items - flour, sugar, baking soda etc. I so love an organized kitchen :)
ReplyDeleteGorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous!! My cabs look almost identical from the outside, so of course I love it. :)
ReplyDeleteI am jealous of your pantry. Mine ended up being tiny-skinny so the stupid fridge would fit. Haven't blogged about it, but my expected 5-week delivery for countertops was shortened to one week. eek! I should have tops this weekend.

ReplyDeleteWhere did you get those cup pulls? More than perfect :)
ReplyDeleteI love your backsplash. Is it marble? What kind? Do you know of any websites that carry it?
ReplyDeleteBethany - the backsplash is a carrera marble in 1"x2", honed finish. I got it in store at http://www.saltillo-tiles.com/. Sorry, I don't know where you can find it online.
