Kitchen 90% Functional



We still have a lot of work to do before we can declare phase 1 of our kitchen remodeling project done.  However, April and I put in a huge effort to get the major pieces back together and functional.

Our kitchen has come a long way from where we started.

It took quite a push yesterday to make it as far as we did.  April literally spent the whole day painting.  One of the things April did was paint the under-sides of the cabinets to match the brown stain.  The darker undersides of the cabinets looks much better which is important because they are three inches higher and therfore easier to see when sitting down.


I also painted the walls adjacent to the kitchen.  One wall has the new corner where a soffit used to be, another wall between the kitchen and the dining room, and the wall I added the light switches to.

One thing I'd like to say about April is that she has an eye for details and will do anything to attend to them (the details that is).


I had to warn her to not look too closely at the rest of the house; otherwise, she would never stop.  To give you context, April has been a professional cake decorator.  She has made many wedding cakes that are fit for royal weddings (IMO).  When I think about it, painting is not all that different than decorating a cake.
