ALMOST DONE!!!!

Published by at 4:30 pm under The new kitchen

After what can only be described as a comedy of errors, the last of our replacement cabinets arrived on Halloween. Trick or Treat, indeed! But due to all the delays our contractor had had to move on to other projects instead of sitting idly by a-waitin’ on us. But on Friday, he came and installed all the final items, including the crown moldings!

Then we had another busy weekend. While the electrician worked in our basement upgrading our box, we finished priming and sanding and taping all in preparation for Sunday, aka “the day of painting from dawn to dusk.” While Paul tackled ALL the details of painting around cabinetry in the kitchen, I attacked the dining room.

While the pictures don’t do the colors justice, the kitchen is now a soft, sagey green and the dining room is a deep khaki. You can also see the crown moldings.

The plumber is here today installing our radiator next to the fridge and an outdoor spigot. Then it’s just a matter of passing inspections (fingers crossed) and touch-up work on our part. Wheeeeeee!
