Plus, who wants to buy a house that has counter tops with particle board swelling up and flaking off....definitely not pretty.
I feel sort of sorry for zac that I always get to just plan everything...choose colors and textures and then leave him to do all the dirty work. I wasn't exactly sitting with my feet propped up...but I wasn't stuck in the kitchen for 48 hours either. One day while the kids were able to go to VBS me and my friends when to Trish's house and cooked her 4 meals in less than 2 hours (she's having a baby in 2 weeks and my thoughtful friend Emily thought we should stock her up some meals.) I finally received my payment for the little forest applique...and the wait was WELL worth it!
Trish has her masters in pottery and I kind of feel like the winner in this handmade swap. Her baby nursery was SO very cute....the applique was right at home. :) I'm super happy to have these mugs for my new kitchen....
And here she is....whiteness herself - in all of her spic and span glory. I just can't believe the transformation...Zac did SUCH a good job. He also replace my sink for a much larger deeper one...and I got a new faucet that I can actually fill up a jug of water now without having to tilt the jar...so nice. How about the back splash idea? We found this idea on line...you just use the really nice water treated white bead board around your kitchen and finish it out in a little trim....looks cozy and def goes with the style of our home.

I love your kitchen! You guys did a great job. Crisp, white, beautiful. I know you will enjoy it!
I really like the way the counter tops turned out. I didn't even see the Ikea bar before, it is so nice and handy. What a beautiful kitchen.

i showed nick and he said, 'let's do butcher block counters, too!'
inspirational.
Isn't it such a WONDERFUL feeling to walk into a new, sparkling kitchen??? I had that honor when we moved into this place (since it was brand new). So glad it's all finished and now you can extra ENJOY cooking and doing dishes. :)
Is this a quiche I see on your stove?? YUMMY!
WOW! I am totally amazed!! You both did an AWESOME job - Alyssa with the research and ideas and Zac with the talented labor! Good job!!
