Before Summit Insulation came

Full Disclosure:  I am a kitchen freak.  I really enjoy kitchen designs and the thoughts, hopes and plans of people who bring their kitchens to life.  Adding life can be as simple as redecoration for two hundred bucks or as complicated as re-fitting a salvage kitchen into a new space.

I belong to a forum site filled with  people who will or have remodelled or redecorated their kitchen.  It's called the kitchen forum on Gardenweb. 

We redid our kitchen about 3 years ago.  Below are some photos when it was almost complete - some trim is missing at the top of the tall stack. It also shows two of the planning drawings that went to a cabinet maker called Scherrs. They sent the cabinets flat packed in the crates.



Since the kitchen was completed, we repainted - the taupe-gray was a bit hard to live with. We had planned on painting again after the insulation was installed because the paint job was starting to look worn. We had purchased the paint and it was sitting in the hall when the installers arrived on August 12th, 2009. I had taken a few of the doo-dahs off the walls in preparation for painting.
