Time for a look at how it all turned out. Like a child, this kitchen truly seems as if it's always been here. And I take that to mean it fits us and suits our house. Thanks for all your support during the long, long gestation period!

Spotting similar cabinets in a magazine got this whole kitchen started. Thanks for the inspiration!

So handy to have pepper, olive oil, and salt at the ready.

More cabinets than I ever imagined

With every cabinet that goes up, the kitchen looks bigger to me. I didn't anticipate that. Maybe it's because I can start to really see the storage spaces we've been planning for so long.

Good news: the Dover White is exactly the shade I wanted. Even with lots of stark white drywall still exposed, this kitchen already feels warm to me. I love it!

In other news, we finally, finally decided on pendants to go over the island. We ordered them from Rejuvenation, the same place we found the back door hanging light. I think they will look great, and they were vastly more affordable than the antique options we were considering. At this point in the project, that's a very good thing.
