Kitchen Progress

It may seem that our kitchen project is taking a long time, and there are a few reasons why that is true. The first being that we both work full time jobs and secondly we have our sweet Wynn to entertain when we are home. The fact that we didn't really lose any function to it when we tore many of the pieces out means that we do not have to rush. 

He completely built this himself to mimic and inspiration photo I had found.  The bottom right door is where my mixer is being housed. We plan on adding some bin pulls to it to resemble two drawers.  The bottom left may become two drawers, but he is still up in the air with that.

The middle will remain open and an additional shelf will be placed near the top. We thought about making that a cabinet too, but decided against it so that it would not be too dark. There are three shelves in the larger cabinets.

The cost for this section was around $150. There was about $50 spent just on hinges that are hidden inside the cabinets.  Then the pulls were around $30. All other materials wood and paint was around $70. We hope to add molding at the top and put the back splash behind the open shelving.


If you had not seen or had forgotten here was the before of the same space in our kitchen.  It has definitely gotten a lot of love recently. That is for sure.  Thanks for stopping by!
