The Kitchen Considered: Chapter 2

...moving right along.

The appliances have been picked....yea

thank-you for all of your wonderful comments about stoves!!!!

I read each and every one and it was so interesting 

how many of you really love the AGA

so now we start considering details

such as layout, lighting and  cabinet design

 For what ever reason, I love to look at light fixtures

and there are sooooo many wonderful things to choose from

There will be three pendants over the sink

 And 7 semi-flush fixtures running the length of the kitchen ceiling

I am seriously considering using something vintage!

I love these graniteware pendants

 The cabinets are  full flush inset, 

custom made  by a local cabinet maker

 very simple

& 

shaker inspired 

 with a simple leg detail

 Sorry for the poor photo quality...I took these with my phone

 This kitchen was re-designed and re-worked a bunch of times 

&

because the space is really small 

 every detail is important

 Once I started working with my cabinet maker,

 I took  plenty of time to re-sketch,

make notes 

and be sure nothing was missed

 visually this kitchen is very open, 

which I think will make it seem larger

One really nice feature will be three large windows in front of the sink...

a 7 foot opening!

 The cabinets are made of maple and 

will be painted either white or grey

Milk paint might even be an option

 Another interesting aspect about this kitchen 

is that there are almost no upper cabinets.

 we started the demo today!

Hope you will visit often and see how things are progressing

happy remodeling
