Kitchen makeover

We decided that the old kitchen had to go.  The appliances didn't really work, the cabinets were out-dated, the light fixtures hung low and made D. feel like he was going to be decapitated, etc.

So we had the kitchen gutted....

And here it is, almost completed.  The cabinets go up to the ceiling, giving the space more height and there are now recessed ceiling lights which also make the room feel bigger.  Still to go in are the metal drawer pulls and two pendant lights which will hang over the island.  I'm excited about the shiny new kitchen and I'm so glad we did this before moving in. 

The rest of the property still needs lots of TLC, but at least the kitchen rocks.
