Remodeling Kitchen: Before Pictures (Part 8)

June 5, 2010 Lana

Remodeling Kitchen Before Pictures

My hubs and I having been working our little behinds off this past week.
I still think the hardest part in doing a remodel (when you are a self-contractor) is the shopping and choosing all the little details.
wall is going This is the wall that is coming down.  bye bye Here is another view….we used to have our fish aquarium here.
  I should probably mention that this wall is a support wall – meaning without this wall – our entire house could crumble.
No worries…we had breakfast (thanks for the reminder, Mom!).70s bye This is also coming down…no more 1970’s posts.  Look carefully at the clock…it didn’t make it.  (tears)brick column The brick column is also being changed.
kitchen leaving...
This wall is the backside and is going to be totally transformed.
fridge space no moreWhere the fridge used to be…and the backside of the wall that holds up the entire house.  garage lights in kitchen...get out! Gorgeous (haha) fluorescent lights that are re-locating to the garage.Laundry room light Our “deli” style chandelier that is also re-locating to the garage above my washer and dryer.
Those lights go out at least once a week.  door to no where The door that is never used…going away!posts... Again, the posts – adios!more posts... I mean it…see ya’!
Stay tuned for more to come….in Renovation Remodel Reality 2010!
Let me just put a disclaimer here….we are by no means experts.  We are learning.  Don’t take what is said here and apply it to your life without some advisement by your spouse, doctor, mother, father, sister in law, neighbor, children, complete stranger standing in the grocery store, local hardware professionals guy/gal, DIY network and by lack of words – local city/county ordinances.
Blessings to you!  You are loved!

Let me just say one more thing….you can have up to date craziness from my Facebook Fan Page, Twitter, or my daily E-mails.
Participating in the following parties…so many ideas!

    Whow,,, have fun!
    I started my kitchen reno about 11 months ago and it grew with each week… I found so much more to do..lol
    I asked a contractor and he said “oh about $29 thousand and I showed him the door”… I did it myself.. I love to demo and it’s looking good! when you find the time check out my blog.. I have several posts on my redo!
    Keep your good attitude and it will go smoothly…haha
    I’ll be back to see as it progresses!
    Good luck!
