Kitchen Demolition Plot

Remem­ber the sof­fit? Me neither.

Met with Chad from 1two5 last night to dis­cuss next steps. Rough elec­tri­cal today, some fram­ing tomor­row and then our pal David will fol­low up with dry­wall. (Have I men­tioned that he’s the best? Paints, too! Find him here.)

New range arrives Sat­ur­day. Can’t wait to see it in the space. The kitchen seems cav­ernous with­out our island! Look­ing for­ward to installing the new range and hood!

Buying Our Dream Range

The plan called for an Ikea Framtid range, but this beau­ty was on clear­ance for the same price! Had to pull the trig­ger on this baby. Look at that glo­ri­ous cook­top! Did I men­tion that it’s a con­vec­tion oven? Can’t believe I’m swoon­ing for a stove.

I said to Helen last night that the way things worked out made me feel like we were in Incep­tion for kitchen remod­el­ing. Glad my top top­pled. It’s real!

Kitchen Under Construction

See that top row of cab­i­nets? That sof­fit? They’re goners, folks. The 1two5 crew comes through today to begin phase two of our kitchen remod­el, which involves tak­ing out those cab­i­nets and mak­ing some archi­tec­tur­al changes, too.

Can’t believe what a dif­fer­ence our new pantry already makes on the oppo­site wall! Our kitchen will be com­plete­ly trans­formed when all is said and done.
