Kitchen Countertops

This is ridiculous! Really! The countertop in the kitchen make a HUGE island. The counter is normal depth, but the slab on top hangs over by 24". Notice the perspective size of the sink. It appears small but it is not. The sink is approximately 40" long.

My kitchen is the coolest kitchen......

Backsplash and Cabinets

Things are moving fast. I'll try to catch you up on the progress......

Here David is standing in front of the kitchen cabinets. Above are spaces that open up. I'll need a stool to get to them; they'll be useful for seldom used kitchen items. On the right is the "pantry" where I'll keep some food and dishes. I don't have cabinets like most homes with places for plates, cups, bowl and etc. Since when am I a traditional person?

Rich in the middle, being held up with boards is the back splash. One giant piece of metal. Weathered. Finished. Just metal. I'll call it the "Conrad Reyes Feature".

Kitchen Cabinets

The kitchen cabinets are taking shape. Here is the installation to-date. The color and shape are becoming evident.

Along the bottom are drawers for pots and pans. Above is storage for seldom used appliances. The opening on the right will be a large pantry. The middle will be the cooktop and hood. Under the tarp on the left is an opening similar to the pantry, but which will frame the refrigerator.

In the background, folks are stripping the old plaster in preparation for a new coat. More on that soon.....
