Kitchen Remodel Update Post #2 - Some new walls and some finish samples

Pin It

Contractors were here for about 5 hours this week, so a little got done, but not a lot.  Sheetrock next week so it should change a bit with that.  What you can see in the photos is we have the wall between the dining room and kitchen removed with some new walls on either side to support the new buffet cabinets that will go there.

We also have our new natural wood slab for our bar countertop and some of the flooring arrived, so we put everything out on the floor to see how it all looks in the room.  We decided that the backsplash we picked out will not go, so now were on a hunt for something new.  See the comments below the photos and click on them for larger versions.

Natural pine wood slab is the big piece in the middle, that's our new bar counter

The lights are mercury glass, the big one will be over our kitchen table, the smaller ones over the bar.  The flooring is a natural finished Acacia flooring.

The wall is gone but there are two new little ones to support the buffet pass-thru

Looking back through the opening to the kitchen

Another shot of the new floor.  Plus the project grew again, wer'e putting slate under the wood burning stove and up the wall behind it so there will be no more visible brick in the house.
