The countertop contractors came by today to take a template, and it should be a couple of weeks (plus holidays...) to get our Caesarstone quartz countertops.
Here's where I've been trying to muddle through with basic carpentry. These are our old cabinets and I modified the sink box to accommodate a very different basin. Before, it had a double-basin cast iron drop in sink, and now we've put in a apron-front sink which protrudes from the cabinet face. Next, I'll need to do a lot of work on doors and drawer fronts, which we want to do as inset (existing doors sat on the surface and are not in the style we want). After all that, of course, these will be sanded down and painted an off-white color.
Why doesn't the cabinet to the left of the sink go all the way to the pantry wall? Because the pantry door will slide on a track on the wall surface, fitting into that space when open. It will be on an exposed track and we hope to make all barn-door-industrial looking and..... well, you'll see.
We decided last minute to move the dishwasher to the right side of the sink instead of where it had been on the left. This is visually more appealing as you walk into the room, but also unfortunately means we'll have to have a somewhat smaller upper cabinet there on the left. I have no idea where we're going to put all our crap.
Emma can already smell the home cookin'.
