We started remodeling our kitchen in March 2001. We decided that it
would be much cheaper if we did the work ourselves. We completed the
project August 2001. Well, here are just a few
pictures that we have taken along the way.

| Awww.. the new drywall is up (Thanks to
my Dad) |
Looking better. The seams are mudded
and taped. |

| Wow, our new kitchen with cabinets and
appliances. |
In the middle of installing the tongue and
groove flooring. |
The floor is finally finished. Look at the new light fixtures as
well!
|
The hutch replacement and another view of finished floor. |
Newly tiled backsplash in the sink area and new light fixtures. How
about that over-the-cabinet lighting?
|
View of lighted stove area. Isn't it pretty? |
This is the light fixture above the window. We had to wait
literally a half a year until we actually received it. |
This is a full shot of the kitchen with all the lights on. The
over-the-cabinet lights highlight the one of a kind soffits.
Take a look at the finished floor as well. |
This is the new dining area. The French folding doors with the
lace curtains add a nice touch to the kitchen. |
This is a close up shot of the tile on the backsplash. Mike did
the cutting of the tile while Lynette and his sister installed
it. |
