The old room, which was a huge mess because we were emptying it out and just putting stuff on counters, floors and wherever to get it out of the cabinets.

I wish. They still have to run the gas line to the stove; install the built in microwave, do the trim around windows and doors and thresholds, paint/touch up, install the electrical fixtures (ceiling and under cabinets), put handles on the cabinets and adjust the doors and shelves. I'm sure I'm forgetting something. But the working fridge is a huge help since we've been living out of a bar fridge since March. Reminds me of when I lived in Europe and had a fridge about that size for two years.

Wow, bar fridge for 3 months! Our fridge died last spring and we had to live out of a mini fridge for a week..I thought that was intolerable! So glad your project is almost finished!

Happy-ish. This is what happens when your husband the architect insists on picking everything. And forgets when he made changes (like swapping out pale sage green cabinets for cream but forgetting to change the tile from white to off white... at least it's still a neutral.) But we went from a really awful gerryrigged kitchen from the 80s to this. So it's a huge improvement.View attachment 3735581

Gorgeous, love everything! Is that a soapstone counter? Our 90s kitchen needs a renovation, but I can't stand the idea of the upheaval!

I like everything about it--the cabinet faces, the handles, the concreteish counter, the square sink, the faucet, the ivory and white.

I figure is remodel is a little like being pregnant. You forget the hassle when the joy of the finished product comes.

Men!! Actually cream and white is tres chic. Easy to add color to your choices and better because you can change whenever you like instead of being locked into something.
