So, finally, we have before and after pics of the new kitchen. Check ‘em out – the old kitchen is on the left and the new one is on the right… (you can click them for larger versions)
| notice the horrible white tile floor and the idiotic tile countertop (that whoever lived here before did themselves, so it was crooked and had the wrong kind of grout) | now we’ve got a sweet travertine floor, custom-built maple cabinets, and black granite countertops |
| (this is looking to the right as you walk in) and for some reason, there were no lower cabinets on the right when you walked into the kitchen – and the ONLY upper cabinets we had were these two | now with lower cabinets, DRAWERS!!!, and upper cabinets.. also an awesome diagonal tile backsplash with mini black tile accent stripe… |
| before we had an ugly white sink and super awesome painted plywood lower cabinet doors… notice the cabinet on the left of the sink – it was half the normal depth so there was horrible storage space inside… | now, we’ve got a corner double sink… with detachable spray spout… and sweet custom-built angled doors underneath… you can see one of our sweet stainless steel light switch covers that match the appliances… |
| you can really see the half-deep cabinet, when compared to the stove… the burner pans were horrible and there was a burn on the back by the dials… | now we’ve got a sweet stainless model with a flat-top cook surface… it’s also a convection oven… and we’ve got the new wall-mounted microwave with a vent |
| so here you can see the awesome plywood cabinet doors… and why not make the shallow cabinet even suckier with three shelves instead of the standard two?? | now, we have another DRAWER!!! and a cool James Bond pull-out hidden trash can… |
| before: super small smelly refrigerator | after: super awesome oversized stainless version |
and one of our favorite new features – by the back door, our dog leashes have dog butt hangers!
