Kitchen demo

The first weekend, the upper cabinets were down and off to Habitat for Humanity.

The lesson here-don't give only half of your cabinets to charity. They weren't too pleased with the idea of waiting for the base cabinets. HfH wants all of the cabinets at the same time.

We just weren't able to pull out everything or get it all over to them at once.

The next weekend, I got the paint mostly done. This is the second color. The first was a grey that made me very unhappy so I went with my backup color; light blue. Much easier to paint the room without the cabinets.

We got 2 new cabinets up on the wall. We are living out of that red tub until we can get the pantry in. It's not completely primitive though. That's mac n cheese on the stovetop.

Space Age Kitchen 2

I think we've picked out our floor and back splash tile.

Now we're leaning more towards a stainless steel countertop.

Space Age Kitchen

So now that the cabinets have been chosen, I'm trying to pick out

backsplash tile, countertop, and flooring.

This is a shiny, silver tile that I think looks cool.

Recycled glass and concrete countertop.

Cork floor; Pyrite color.

I like the floor and the countertop, but not sure if I like them with the silver tile.

I really like this skinny tile, but not sure how 'spac-y' it looks.

Bedroom Before & After

When we first looked at Tilly Ranch, I was adamant about getting the grooming out of the house as soon as possible.

The large, spacious master bedroom had vinyl flooring with a lovely built in, raised tub.

Not quite the amenities I was looking for.

Now this is my favorite room, soon to be eclipsed by the kitchen I hope.

I think the headboard needs a picture in the middle, and more pillows!
