Since last time I posted about my kitchen reno, we have made some changes....big surprise right?! We are no longer using the fancy designer and reconfiguring our powder room, the expense just didn't justify itself. Instead we decided to keep our current layout (for the most part) there will be a couple of surprises when I post the final result, but other than the layout pretty much everything will be different. New cabinets, flooring, back splash, sink, counter tops and appliances. Yes, aesthetically it will be much more pleasing but we are also adding more storage and more functionality - like full reach corner cabinets...YAY. It's amazing how the little things can be so exciting!
Anyway, here is a reminder of what my kitchen looked like before
.....and here is a sneak peek at some of the finishes we will be using...
This will be the flooring, it is a porcelain tile from Regal Tile in the colour Royal Crema. Our tiles however will be 12" by 24", which I think is a really great look.

And the Piece De Resistance - my back splash. This is my splurge item, it is Travertine Limestone by Regal Tile. I can not even wait to see this on the wall! |
 |
| These will be our cabinets - they are Fabritec Expressive Helios in the colour Autumn Brown. Love them! |
 |
| Ahhh....these are my counter tops. No, they are not quartz they look like they are, don't they? They are actually Formica laminate. I love these counter tops, we have had them in the past, you will see them in the pictures above and they are amazing, so durable and beautiful and a lot less expensive than the real thing. |
Well, I can't wait. We will probably begin the demo around the end of February. Stay tuned as I will be updating you along the way. Inside the world of a real life renovation, not the kind you see on TV that's done in a day.
Cheers!
