The Kitchen - Part 1

Adam and I decided it was finally time for some new counter tops in the kitchen. Well, everyone knows that once you start, you don't stop until your finished. So with new counter tops we are also getting a glass tiles backsplash, new faucet, a new stove and drawer pulls. Horizon 2 will be lighting and horizon 3 will be floors. 

The before. I would like to note that my counter tops have not been this de-cluttered since the day before we moved in.



Prepped for installation. Adam and his dad had to level all the cabinets last weekend and install the brackets on the island. From Sunday thru Thursday, I had a sink (no counter tops on either side), the island and the opposite side counter top. The rest was left bare.

When the installation guy came in, he said, 'Wow, those really are some brackets'. Apparently someone went a little high on the safety factor when he purchased these. 


And...Taa Daa!! The granite counter tops! The stone is sapphire brown. They are very pretty.

The huge, deep sink! I think Nick could lay down in this sink.


Next up - new faucet and garbage disposal (haven't had one of those in 8 months) back splash (not until next weekend, though) and drawer pulls. And probably a new stove. Not that there is anything wrong with our current stove, it's just not pretty. Sorry stove. Kitchen - Part 2 will be posted at the next progress mark.
