Renovation - June 1 - 4





This was the week for the hardwood floors to be installed/repaired/sanded and the first coat of polyurethane applied. This was all done by Wednesday afternoon. The odor was pretty bad Wednesday night, and we opened up all of the windows. There is now hardwood in the dining room and bathroom in addition to the already existing kitchen and family room floors.

This morning, Nutmeg delivered all of the cabinets so they are here when they begin installation on Monday. I LOVE them! Most of the cabinets are black with horizontal grain with the exception of the oven cabinets and around the refrigerator. I chose Benjamin Moore Split Pea for those cabinets. I thought they would break up the blackness and also provide a pop of color. They really look nice next to the black. Also, the top cabinets on the pantry wall have brushed aluminum frames with frosted glass inset. So the only black in the kitchen is below the countertop.

Here are a few pictures!
