I’m so glad to share that our kitchen and powder room reno is lastly full! The venture took about six and a half weeks and whereas I can truthfully say I felt each hour of that six and a half weeks, it was price it.
Let’s begin with the powder room. It’s a small house and whereas I really feel uncomfortable going large and daring, I used to be simply wanting a change – so large and daring I went. I received this pink wallpaper and Dan put in it. It is rather pink however I’m actually into it!
Above you possibly can see the earlier than and after video I made on Instagram. The realm was fantastic – however we had been excited to provide the house just a little replace. We did new flooring, cupboards and counter tops, new range with conversion to electrical, new sink and tap, and new rest room within the powder room.
We stored the pedestal sink we already had and swapped out the fixtures. Initially I didn’t love the black and wished I’d gone with gold or a light-weight bronze, however it’s rising on me. I received this mirror, and added a inexperienced hand towel to the gold towel holder I received as effectively.
I really like that the blue island matches the blue of the eating room.
I really like the feel of the tile – it is porcelain and designed for interiors however it type of jogs my memory of blue stone. I selected it as a result of Buckles doesn’t do effectively on slick or polished tile (which is why you see an enormous runner within the earlier than video) – and he has no downside with this in any respect!! I debated concerning the blue island – whether or not to do a White Island and blue backside cabinetry, or all the pieces white – and I’m actually glad I ended up with this. We additionally did cupboards as much as the ceiling, which supplies us a lot extra space for storage and in addition makes the room really feel larger and brighter to me.
For home equipment, I stored the identical fridge and dishwasher I already had, and we made the choice to modify from electrical to fuel, and I used to be capable of finding a 30” Wolf vary in inventory at a close-by equipment store. When it arrived, it appeared to have been dropped (!!!!) and was dented, however a Wolf rep got here out and inspected it intently, and changed every bit that wanted changing and stated we needs to be good to go. I used it at this time and it really works completely, however fortunately it’s beneath guarantee, if something goes incorrect sooner or later.
I received just a little loopy and did a gold sink and brushed brass faucet – I actually like mixing metals, so I believe it seems good! The counter tops are quartz and the backsplash is marble.
I received these handles, which I cherished as a result of it picked up each the gold and the gray – they usually have a little bit of texture to them that I felt appeared cool.
I’m so proud of the way it got here out – however the one factor I’ve realized is that when you end one venture, you discover forty-five extra to do, so we’re already beneath contract to color our bed room and do some electrical work in there for just a little updating as effectively, so in the event you’re into dwelling stuff, keep tuned for that.
