Holding Pattern

The kitchen project is basically in a holding pattern. There is one cabinet left to install before we can do molding, etc. This small, 9in open shelf was not what we thought when it came in the first time. After sending it back and ordering the correct item, it was damaged when it came in. So we sent it back to Kraftmaid one more time. Hopefully, they will get it straight this time. Lowe's has been great! The store at Polaris is outstanding regarding customer service. Pleasant and quick with help on these matters.

We've started with some finish work. Mindy did sand and paint the new drywall areas. She did a great job blending the paint. Thanks to Matt W. for tips on doing that! Appliances are going back in place. The new microwave is up and the fridge is fully functional at this point. There is a power problem with the range, but I'll sort that out this week. I also hope to get the doors and hardware finished this week. More pics once that is done.

Granite should be coming late next week, which means we'll also have a sink. It also means we can start the backsplash - so we need to pick that tile out. Mindy did find some nice mission style lighting, which we hope will be here next week.

So it's all coming together. Maybe another month and it will be fully completed!
