It occurred to me yesterday, that there was never really going to be a “good” time to take pictures of the kitchen. Its not finished and I have no idea when (or if) I will ever consider it finished. The overhead lighting that we have is really terrible, so I opted to take some of these pictures with them off. I’m sorry if they turned out a little dark. There isn’t much natural light that comes directly into the kitchen, but the adjoining rooms let a pretty good amount filter in. Its really much lighter in person. And its rarely ever this clean and tidy. Since I was cleaning anyway, I figured now was as good a time as any to go ahead and snap some pictures of the final unfinished product…

Two custom pantry doors to replace the 6 others that didn’t match the rest of the cabinetry. |

My mini home office corner. Eventually I would like some shelving over the desk to house my cookbooks and other office supplies. |

Things that are still on my “to tackle” list:
Replace the too-shallow kitchen sink, broken garbage disposal and hideous sink fixtures…
Purchase or DIY a pendant light for over the sink…
Replace the fluorescent lighting with a lighted ceiling fan…
(It gets really hot in the kitchen while cooking.)
OH MY GOSH!! You got a brand new kitchen! I love it. I want to paint my cabinets white SO badly! Maybe you will be my motivation to do so ASAP. I can't wait to see this in person- y'al did such a great job.
