Kitchen Again...

Seems like a never-ending kitchen story but someday it will end. I am just not in any big hurry. I did clean up the mess fromlast Friday's tear down and then I made another mess - removed the drywall from part of the soffit. But actually the goal for this week/end is too get all the tearout done. All lathe and mortar gone. Then I can concentrate on the real work.

THE RENOVATION!!!

Cabinet placement has been decided. It will be pretty much the same with a few mods and some extras. The stove will be moved north 18" and have a ceramic/stone backsplash with a pot filler faucet. The sink is staying just being changed to a fireclay or copper farmhouse sink (the ones that look like this ). A 6 foot island is being added in the center of the room with pendandt lights overhead. Countertops will almost definetely be soapstone and the floor is still questionable. Either flagstone or hardwood. I have lots of old hardwood that was removed from various rooms over time that is stored in the man-cave that can be reused. I just have to san and refinish after it is on the floor. and still more walls and part of the ceiling to remove. What a mess.
