winter...

is still here.  I haven't been taking pictures because I've been kinda busy.   I'm going to try to take more soon.  I need to start planning my kitchen remodel for our new house, so I may be a little preoccupied.

I'm really excited to get going on it.  But I don't know where to start.

My thought process:

Antique white cabinets that go ALL the way up.
Dark cherry island
Change range to gas
Already have double wall oven
Get new fridge, but what fridge do we want?
Single big stainless steel sink
Refinish the white dishwasher to stainless steel (since it's pretty much new)


What kind of countertop do I want? We did the Wilsonart HD in our last kitchen.  Looks like granite, but it's laminate.  It was great except I couldn't do an undermount sink with it.  I really want an undermount sink.  My parents have granite and I feel like every time I set a glass on it, I'm going to break the glass.  I don't want that either! And what color do I choose?  I was thinking dark for cabinets and light for the island.

Now for the floor.  The tile in there now is hideous and dangerous (super slippery).  Do we install tile or wood?  I like wood.  Do we do the tile that looks like wood?  Well that's what we were planning for the master bathroom.

Oh the master bathroom.  Had to have the shower floor redone.  I don't really like it.  Doesn't look like the picture.  So what do I do now?  Maybe I'll like it when I get in there.

The other bathroom...the tenants in there now ripped hooks off the wall so there is a giant hole in the drywall.  I'm thinking wainscoting that goes 3/4 up the wall.

Kinda can't wait to repaint the rooms.  Give it that fresh new smell.  Which will be an improvement from the disgusting turtle & dog smell throughout the house.  ew.

Hoping we can refinish and change the stain color of the wood floors downstairs as well.  That would be stellar!  That is all cost dependent.

So for now, I gather ideas.  Try to put it all together.  I only have 8 months & 3 weeks to figure it out.  Haha
