Kitchen

The kitchen is coming together fabulously if I do say so myself! I'm so pleased with how the floor, cabinets, countertop, wall color, light fixtures, and backsplash look together. The backsplash is a natural slate in various sizes. I found it in the bathroom of Tile Mart and fell in love. We'll be using the same tile as the backsplash for our whirlpool tub.

We went with a quartz countertop from Cambria. Cambria is "the Cadillac of quartz" per our salesman at Hannapel and the only quartz made in the USA.

Another nice feature in the kitchen is the microwave in the island. It frees up counter space and is also more easily accessible for the little people in our house. Hopefully the reasoning behind its placement doesn't backfire :)

Vanities

Our vanities were delivered Friday and Matt wasted no time getting them set. I'm very pleased with how they look. In the master bath we chose and quarter-sawn oak and in the 2nd / girl's bath we went with a white finish.

Siding = Done! Hurray!!!

Front

Matt was so happy last night when he came home and announced the siding was DONE! It really looks great. Now we can focus on the final details inside...

Siding Looks Great!

We went with Sherwin Williams Green Sprout and the shakes are Edemame - since it turned out so well, I suggest picking out paint colors when you're hungry.

Porch

Our porch has been Matt's major project for weeks now. And it looks great! I love the stone and the columns that Matt's been building are exactly how I pictured them. Check out the picture. The column on the far left is the only one completed when I took this picture.
