When we were looking at homes, the kitchen was a big influencer on my decision to love or hate a home! I cannot stand old, dated kitchens, so the best solution is a brand NEW kitchen 🙂 I love our dark wood cabinets and stainless appliances, not to mention the gorgeous granite countertops. It’s such a pretty kitchen, and since I love cooking, I’m happy that the room is so pretty!
I also really like that the kitchen opens up to the living room, because it’s nice for Michael & I to be able to talk when one of us is cooking…let’s be real, that’s usually me. Although I have to admit, he really does cook, and he does it well 🙂 It’s also nice to watch TV while cooking from time to time. We have a counter bar on the living room side, which has room for 4 bar stools, so it’ll be nice to buy some eventually for more sitting room when we have people over for dinner. My dad just installed pendant lights over the counter bar, and I really like how it all looks!
The only thing left to do in the kitchen is put all of our cabinet hardware on – apparently, newly constructed homes these days don’t come with cabinet knobs. We’ve purchased the knobs for the cabinets & drawers, but we just need time to put them on! Maybe this weekend… 🙂 We also have an under-cabinet wine glass rack that we need to put up – but that won’t take long at all.
Here’s the kitchen!
