Welcome to my newly remodeled kitchen! Truly the heart of my home.
This is what I posted back in April so you can see the transformation unfolding.
I couldn't wait another day!
I had to show you my new kitchen!
I absolutely love my cherry cabinets.
I can't keep my hands off the cold quartz counter tops.
And hello! how gorgeous is my Ladylux GROHE in her new digs!
* before
* after
Oh my gosh, the island is humongous ~ 9'9" X 4'3"!! Whatever will I do with all that space!
We do have plans to get new stools someday, but I wanted you to see them in both the before & after photos to give you some perspective.
We have so much more that we need to to do, but we are just so relieved to finally have a working kitchen. Who knows when it'll be completely done. So rather than wait till we install the lighting, the glass in the cabinets, finish the painting, install the back splash and drawer pulls & cabinet handles and much, much more... I had to let you see how far we've come.
Thanks to Chris and Chris for installing our cabinets. They did an amazing job! Check em out if you live in the Phoenix, Mesa, Tempe, Scottsdale, Gilbert areas.
And a huge thank you to Tim Morari of SHOWCASE KITCHENS for the design of this kitchen. It's more than I ever dreamed!
We only had to wait a few days after the cabinets were installed before our Viatera quartz counter tops arrived. I was so nervous I could hardly stand to watch them haul the slab through the front door, so I snapped a quick pic and then ran back in my room.
Later Randy came and got me for the big reveal. I about cried. I was completely stunned. And then Randy installed my Ladylux and finished up the plumbing. It was finished. My kitchen was complete. And you guys, I am beyond thankful.
God does cause all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose. (Romans 8:28)
Because of the flood I have a new kitchen!
* You can read the story about my BARN LIGHTS HERE! Reminds me of the farm in Wisconsin.
** And also the story about MY RED HUTCH HERE! Thanks to those that asked about the story!
*** Be sure to check out the Kitchen Remodel posts in the March archives to see the total transformation.

Wow, although it's kind of late let me say this is a very beautiful kitchen! Congratulations, Linda. If you don't mind me asking, how long did it take to get your kitchen to look like this? You color theme seemed to be in coherence with each other, thus making it more effective. Anyway, thanks for sharing this! :)
