Now you have nearly finished the kitchen I am looking forward to other projects that you take on. You explain them so well and I for one will be wanting to have a go myself. I have left an award on my blog for you. Margaret Oh Chad you are so right. Now you have nearly finished the kitchen I am looking forward to other projects that you take on. You explain them so well and I for one will be wanting to have a go myself.

I have left an award on my blog for you.

Toward the end of any project, there's the inevitable urge to cut corners and wrap it up quickly. That's especially true when the project takes over some space in your house. We've tried very hard to keep a level head and remember that it's better (and cheaper) to do it right than to do it twice. We started tearing out the old kitchen on May 16th, and we got the water running in the kitchen again on June 22nd. It should have been done two weeks earlier, but I ended up having to hire out the plumbing. The kitchen is fully functional again and we've been cooking up a storm over the past few days. All the work that remains is cosmetic, and in most cases, kind of fun. Wait until you see the pictures of our pot rack and knife magnet.

I had a remodel two years ago by so called 'professionals' and I ended up repainting the room again after they had finished. So many little things were done just NOT right if you know what I mean, like a light switch not quite straight, maybe not important but they stick out like a sore thumb every time you see them. How long has it taken you. I bet you all can't wait until you give the new kitchen its' christening. Margaret You have done such a professional job Chad.
