Before & During in the Kitchen

A few people have asked about the "progress" of our kitchen remodel so I will post a few photos.  This is the Before look.  Remember the house is 40 years old and a farmhouse style.



This is our dining table which sits opposite the oven photo above. We are keeping the brick floors but the wood will be painted a color called Fleur de Sel.  That's a silvery white color, hard to describe but it will brighten the place up.


We are keeping the fridge because I like the style and it still works very well.




After the demolition!

Since that photo was taken we'd been home again and they have cut holes in the ceiling for recessed lighting and have moved and added a few electrical outlets.
 

The sink and dishwasher will change positions.  The dishwasher will move down to the right and the farmhouse sink will be on the other side of it.


We have been living in the RV at Lake Seminole since May 10th, going home on occassion for doctor appointments and shopping.  Tomorrow we will head home and stop by the house to see what progress has been made.





Here is a view of  the campsite looking from the RV. It has a nice pad to set up chairs and the grill, great view of the water.


This was a nice shady spot and we hated to leave it for another site.  It is very hot here with tempertures still dwelling in the 90's or upper 80's by 6 P.M. Ugh. 

Loki enjoyed watching the boat and jet ski activity.



Ok, so he'd look around now and then too.  He's fascinated by the fox squirrels so that always gets his attention.




Tomorrow I will get photos of the two bathrooms which were also demolished. It will be good to be home again when this is finished but I can honestly say, we have been having fun here in Georgia. 

Hope all is well in your world!

  1. I've been wondering about the progress, too! I'm so glad your extended RV-ing has been pleasant. Now it will feel like vacation to be back in your home, with your beautiful new kitchen and baths!

  2. How exciting to have a new kitchen and bathrooms, but it does take time, doesn't it? Having the RV is so helpful and you've got a nice site on that lake. Good that you have a shady spot to hang out in since I'm sure the RV gets warm, even with A/C. We're looking into getting some reflectix to cut down on the heat when we are in hot locations.

    1. Les, it's been a blessing to have the RV and when we can get a site right on the lake it's wonderful, I'll have to look into the reflectix. It is hard for the AC to compensate this heat.

  3. Thanks for the update... I've been wondering how it's going. Remodeling is so stressful and I'm glad you have the RV so you don't have to live there while it's all happening. Can't wait to see what your kitchen looks like when you're done! Enjoy the campsite in the meantime... great spot!

    1. JoAnn, thank you so much. It's been nice watching the boats and enjoying the breeze. We go home now and then to see progress and I look forward to the final results. I miss the oven and making bread.

Welcome and thank you so much for visiting. If I don't answer you here I will get back to you on your blog. Also have had to switch to approving comments due to some SPAM lately. Alas...

It's been a good run...........
