Day 15

The millwork is done on the range hood. With a little stain and textured paint, it will be the focal point of the kitchen.

And we have handles! The oil-rubbed bronze is a fantastic contrast against the cream-colored cabinets, but I didn't realize they would be so big. Not out-of-proportion big, just bigger than I expected. But that's okay--it's a big kitchen (with an aircraft carrier in the middle, no less!).





How about this little gadget? A pull-out receptacle for trash and recyclables. No more trying to stuff a garbage bag under the sink!

Dinner: grilled brats and veggies with a shredded carrot salad.
