THE PROCESS: starting from the last step to the first.

laying lino

this was a stressfull time - making sure everything was straight



Scraping the ceiling and removing cabinets



removed the upper cabinets.



originally we planned to keep the cabinets but when we removed the upper ones to paint they just fell apart.

the shelves beside the fridge

more counter space


lots and lots of counter space

most of it was done by ourselves. we had the counter tops installed. what was done? replaced: lights, cabinets, counter tops, floor, island, shelves, hardware, removed tile, painted, scraped popcorn ceiling and re-stippled   Still to do: baseboards and trim
