Part III kitchen saga ... almost done!

The colour in the photos has been strongly influenced by the snow, creating a light similar to florescents. When we finish the trims and backsplash tiling, I will take new pictures.
The paint is actually a spring leaf green. The dining room is a shade darker.

When you enter from the family room, this is what you see -the cabinet colour is true in this photo. I was able to get the plate rack for my blue pottery.We moved the stovetop from the peninsula and put gas in. I love it! The heat is instant and even. From the dining room, you see ...
As you walk into the dining room and look around, you see that plants grow well here. The dining room is large and bright. The wood trim on the windows is yet to be painted white. The painting of a Japanese Lantern is my watercolour.

I've waited 20 years for this renovation! I'm very happy with the results. The only problem is that the rest of the house now needs upgrading !!!
