The kitchen got 90% completed this weekend. Our contractor came in and installed the back splash for our counter and peninsula area. We have to wait for the mortar to set before we can apply the grout. Once the grout goes on, we are able to paint the few walls that still remain bare in the kitchen and dining room.
This is the peninsula area that "connects" the kitchen to the dining room. It can hold four bar stools comfortably-five if we need it to. We chose a stainless steel finished subway tile for this small area that needed a back splash. It's a nice contrast to the white subway tiles and white cabinets. They should also make for easier clean up and stain resistant.
All of the appliance are also installed and working-YAY!
Most of the downstairs also got painted this weekend. The stairwell, foyer and living room are all painted and ready to go. We decided on Woodrow Wilson Putty as far as wall color goes. We describe it as a khaki grey/neutral. In the sunlight it looks more taupe and under the lights at night it has a darker grey vibe to it.
This color is a continuation from the hallway upstairs, which you can read about here.
We are in the home stretch- no pun intended- of this renovation. I am hoping to get most things done this week/weekend before the floors get refinished next weekend.
