The kitchen finally has a new countertop, cooktop, oven, sink, and faucet!
Now we just have to replace that ugly almond colored hood. First, we have to decide if we want to take out the cabinet above it and put in a microwave with vent system or just replace the current hood with a white one that would blend in better. Thoughts?
Oven: Nutid from IKEA, $299. A steal that was marked down from $699 because they are discontinuing their 24" ovens. (:
Just a reminder of the before with some afters to compare! I am absolutely in love with it!
We still have a small list of things left to do:
-Switch out hood
-Make roman shade for window above sink
-Purchase and install garbage disposal
-Make drum shade that matches roman shade, and swap out ceiling fan on dinette side of kitchen with drum shade.
-Touch up paint on cabinets (we still have yet to get around to that!)
-Replace dishwasher??
Now, let's look again at the cost of this mini-reno.
