A quick tour of the new kitchen
Picture
Scrambled eggs, omlettes, pancakes, oatmeal, with a piping hot cup of coffee, now being served at 120 Queen St.  Yup, the kitchen is done!  This is the 3rd kitchen that we have tackled, and I think this will be the last. But I never say,  "Never."  This kitchen was a little over 100 square ft. so we had to maximize this space the best that we could.  I will admit when the cabinets arrived in large boxes and sat waiting in the living room for 2 months, I lost some sleep.  Not believing my measurements and carefully planned layout, I worried a bit.  As we placed each cabinet in the kitchen it soon revealed that my instinct was pretty good.  I wanted a place where we could gather,  simple meals could be made and we could focus on the conversations and time spent together.  I emphasized SIMPLE as my mantra for this room...I think we achieved that.  I love the simple lines, uncomplicated layout, limited color palette, and basic materials used.  Nothing fancy just utilizing the basics! It is simply a great kitchen re-do, if I do say so myself!
(just a couple more accents for the walls and it is a wrap!)
