Kitchen is almost done



Finally an update. We had to wait on the company installing the kitchen to deliver it before we could get to this step, but it's soooo nice to have a kitchen finally. A stove of my own, a fridge, dishwasher, a real sink! (we were using the bathroom sink till now, it was the only running water other than the tub and toilet)

The kitchen is still missing some parts. The exhaust fan over the stove didn't get delivered, and the electrical parts to plug in the glass cabinets didn't come either. The frosted glass cabinets have fluorescent tubes inside, it's really pretty when it works. I'm also having to spackel and paint areas that I thought were going to be covered, but aren't.

Tables, lamps, and chairs are all courtesy of Ikea. There is a wall lamp that will be installed in that small white protrusion in these two photos, but I have to wait till I get a drill to install it.



I love how the fridge is built into the wall of the kitchen. I don't like the freestanding "LOOK AT ME, I'M A FRIDGE" types, so this was a big draw of this kitchen.



Dishwasher and oven match the scheme too.
