Kitchen Cabinets Almost Complete!

A few days after the kitchen countertops went in, the cabinet guy came back to complete the section over the stove.


I love the little mantle shelf above the stove... can't wait to put platters & decorating things up there!
The three doors in the center open, but the hood is located behind them, so that's not actually storage space.  But the four narrow doors on the side DO have a bunch of storage- they are really deep, so hold tons of stuff!

The stove actually just BARELY squeezed in there!  The installation guy came and couldn't believe it was such a tight fit- but they got it in there! Whew!

Next the granite guy is coming back to put the little backsplash pieces in place in the squares on the sides.  We still haven't picked out the backsplash for the wall behind the stove. We want a stone look, but haven't found the right one yet.

The cabinet guy will be back... the two drawers to the left of the stove had minor dings.  I don't think I would have even noticed, but the cabinet guy noticed during installation and ordered new drawer fronts.  Once they come in he'll be back to replace those and to finish putting the knobs on the rest of them.

PS- This was all in early November (can't believe how far behind I am on writing up these posts!  But there's been very little progress since then, so it's giving me a chance to catch up!)   The good news is that the gas got connected to the stove the Monday before Thanksgiving- so we were able to cook the turkey- hooray!
