Kitchen Renovation: Part 6
Now that some of the cabinetry is in place, our kitchen is beginning to take shape. We can actually imagine ourselves moving about cooking, entertaining, snacking and it feels really good! Alex already made good use of our new island to build the Lindsey Adelman light fixture that will hang above it. I've been impatient to see how the new and old accessories will work with the current color palette and have been playing around with area rugs, flatware and art. If all goes as planned, the countertops will be installed on Thursday and the cabinet doors will follow suit. I must admit, we're more than ready to have it all finished. They're not lying when they say a kitchen is the heart of the home!
Life Happens
Every now and then I get sucked into looking at family photos. Last night, as I scrolled through the years the experience truly felt like time travel. I'm not sure whether it was my recently celebrated 44th birthday, or just the pace of time itself that sparked this reflective journey into the past. It was amazing to see how much our children changed; while some of their infant features remained, others have clearly matured. It was joyous and also a bit sad to notice the changes both in them and in me. Life happens quickly and sometimes we need to be reminded to slow it all down and savor the moments.
Kitchen Update: The Delta Faucet
After much research, I found the perfect faucet for our new kitchen: Delta's Trinsic Single Handle Pull Down unit. The "Champagne Bronze" finish works really well with the brass pulls for our cabinetry and the wallpaper and counter color we selected, plus I love the clean lines of its design. Take a look:
Things around here are starting to take shape. Some of the cabinets have been installed and the reclaimed redwood panels have been sanded and stained. Stay tuned for my next update and click here to see the progress already made.
