Kitchen Remodel: Function!

The "behind the bones" look at the new kitchen!  Just look at how we fit all the stuff we need into our little kitchen with the help of cleverly designed cabinets!
Pots and Pans
Bakeware and lids
Cups
Above the fridge
The pantry with pull-outs!
Plates and bowls
My favorite drawer of all...the Tupperware drawer.  It's so easy to find what you need!
Essentials
Silverware

It felt silly taking a picture of the trash can, but I felt that it was necessary.  This works so much better than the old one, which was under the sink.  Someone was always in the way when you needed to throw something away.  Now it neatly tucked away and available when you need it!

Kitchen Remodel: The Final Product!!!

So the seemingly never-ending Kitchen remodel has finally come to an end.  The kitchen is complete!  Here are some photos of the final product.







I really, really love how it turned out.  The kitchen now seems bigger than it was before and the best part is that it is completely functional.  There is much more room for storage and the storage options we added make much more sense.  The drawers work so much better and allow for much more use of space.  The pantry is also amazing!!  I love everything about this kitchen!  I have to hand it to Todd, too.  He did an awesome job on the back splash!

Kitchen Remodel: Phase Seven

Finishing Touches
I made a menu board for the new kitchen!
My over-sized fork and spoon decoration.

Rugs!  :)

My way-better-than-the-old-floors floor!!  :)  :)
New door to the basement
We also got rid of the way-too-big buffet in the dining room and added this antique corner cabinet that we found on craigslist and painted to match the trim.

So, at this point in the project, all that was still needed was the window treatment and the back splash!  It's so exciting to see everything come together!

Jocelyn is enjoying her season!  
It's pretty funny watching a group of 4-year-olds play soccer, that's for sure!
