Kitchen Remodel Chapter Three

Well here is another addition to our Kitchen Remodel. Sadly from start to finish it took us four months. With all the painting, contractors, and our work schedules it just took a long time. One of the biggest improvements had to be the floor. If you need a closer look just look at the floors at Wal-Mart, I had the same thing. Needless to say I was not a fan. It was ugly and always looked dirty. 
Even half way done the floors looked better.

We chose a wood laminate. It is easy to clean and I don't have to worry if something gets spilled.

We had three different colors of cabinet tops. One that was a fake wood, one was black and the rest was yellow. It was a glorious sight to see my husband and son tear them out. For our cabinet tops we chose Meganite it is a non-porous solid surface. It surprisingly wasn't that hard to pick out a color, considering the samples are 2 x2 inches and there was 46 different colors.

Our house is fifty years old and for the past 13 years we have been fighting what was popular then.

The contractor installed the cabinet tops on December 23rd again I don't recommend this. What were we thinking. We also choose an integrated sink, it is all one piece. No seams!

The back splash would have to wait until after Christmas.

Join me again for the last installment of our Kitchen Remodel.
