{Kitchen} The Reveal!

If you’ve ever remodeled a room…specifically a bathroom or kitchen…then you know just how stressful it can be. Granted, it’s completely exciting to be able to create a space exactly to your liking (or as ‘exactly’ as the budget allows), but there are just so many decisions…the kind of expensive decisions that are reallllllly hard to undo.

For those reasons, I usually tend to second guess every choice that accompanies a remodel…and this Kitchen was no different. But all these months later, I’m thrilled with every hand-wringing, self-doubt inducing, reach-further-in-the-bank-account decision we made, and I pinch myself every time I walk in this room. I can’t believe this is my house, and I get to boil water in this Kitchen! (Just kidding, I use the toaster, too.) 😉

 

I know it’s been a long wait, but truthfully, I kept procrastinating the full reveal for fear the room wasn’t perfect yet, or I wouldn’t do it justice. You guys stuck with me through every painstaking step of the reno, and I wanted it to be worth all the anticipation. 

But I finally realized the room will never be perfect, or even complete, nor will everyone like it…but we love it. Like, really, really love every last detail of it! This post is pretty photo-heavy (hence the truncated post…sorry for that!), so I’ll let the pictures do the talking, then follow up with a Before & After post outlining all the details, changes, and updates. 

This room truly is the heart of our home…where we gather every morning and night, and usually all the hours in between. The space works and flows so much more efficiently now, too, and I’m actually excited by the prospect of cooking. #gofigure

We’re still working on a few design and organizational details, so I’ll be back to discuss those, along with the full breakdown. Oh! And be sure you’re following me on InstaGram or Facebook…I finally get to reveal the big secret later today!
