Kitchen finished!

The final parts came and have been installed, now our super awesome cabinets light up, and we have an exhaust fan over the oven top so that steam and smells get sucked away.

Behold!


The frosted glass cabinets have lights inside the bottom that cast light inside the cabinet, and down below. The exhaust fan also has a light built in. It means we only ever turn on the overhead light when we're searching for something. It's very cozy with just these lights, and the small wall light on the opposite wall is turned on.

We also took delivery on our bed. We had this built for us at the local carpenter's. We picked the plan, the wood type (it's solid maple wood) and the stain (this is two coats of stain). The bed is incredibly solid, and I love the simple square design. Very masculine. We will be getting a cream colored area rug to put under the foot of the bed to create a bit of separation between the dark wood of the floor and the dark wood of the bed.
