I’m so blissful to share that our kitchen and powder room reno is lastly full! The venture took about six and a half weeks and whereas I can truthfully say I felt each hour of that six and a half weeks, it was value it.
Let’s begin with the powder room. It’s a small area and whereas I really feel uncomfortable going huge and daring, I used to be simply wanting a change – so huge and daring I went. I received this pink wallpaper and Dan put in it. It is vitally pink however I’m actually into it!
Above you may see the earlier than and after video I made on Instagram. The realm was high-quality – however we have been excited to provide the area a bit of replace. We did new flooring, cupboards and counter tops, new range with conversion to electrical, new sink and tap, and new rest room within the powder room.
We stored the pedestal sink we already had and swapped out the fixtures. Initially I didn’t love the black and wished I’d gone with gold or a light-weight bronze, but it surely’s rising on me. I received this mirror, and added a inexperienced hand towel to the gold towel holder I received as effectively.
I like that the blue island matches the blue of the eating room.
I like the feel of the tile – it is porcelain and designed for interiors but it surely type of jogs my memory of blue stone. I selected it as a result of Buckles doesn’t do effectively on slick or polished tile (which is why you see an enormous runner within the earlier than video) – and he has no downside with this in any respect!! I debated concerning the blue island – whether or not to do a White Island and blue backside cabinetry, or every part white – and I’m actually glad I ended up with this. We additionally did cupboards as much as the ceiling, which provides us a lot more room for storage and likewise makes the room really feel greater and brighter to me.
For home equipment, I stored the identical fridge and dishwasher I already had, and we made the choice to modify from electrical to gasoline, and I used to be capable of finding a 30” Wolf vary in inventory at a close-by equipment store. When it arrived, it appeared to have been dropped (!!!!) and was dented, however a Wolf rep got here out and inspected it intently, and changed each piece that wanted changing and mentioned we ought to be good to go. I used it at present and it really works completely, however fortunately it’s underneath guarantee, if something goes improper sooner or later.
I received a bit of loopy and did a gold sink and brushed brass faucet – I actually like mixing metals, so I feel it seems good! The counter tops are quartz and the backsplash is marble.
I received these handles, which I beloved as a result of it picked up each the gold and the gray – they usually have a little bit of texture to them that I felt seemed cool.
I’m so proud of the way it got here out – however the one factor I’ve discovered is that after you end one venture, you discover forty-five extra to do, so we’re already underneath contract to color our bed room and do some electrical work in there for a bit of updating as effectively, so should you’re into residence stuff, keep tuned for that.
