Since I was called out on it . . . here are some pics of my kitchen renovation in progress.
We still have lots to do -- paint the ceiling, put up ceiling trim, get the countertops installed, get the three other upper cabinets installed, do the floor, finish off the small table/desk, put up window/door trim, fix the dishwasher, paint the pantry, etc. . . . but trust me . . . it beats the home-made cabinets we had before AND right now I don't even mind the particle board "countertops" we have compared to the pink countertop I had on one side and the white with gold flecked flower formica countertop from the 1970s I had on the other side.
I'm really liking the extra lighting we put in . . . and love the pantry my wife wanted to install. Color seems to be off in the photos for some reason -- beadboard backsplash is actually more of an olive green. In some photos it almost looks blue.
