Kitchen Before

Crazy, NASTY kitchen.  The pictures don't really do the ickyness justice.  There is a smell, one that can't really be described, in this hole of a kitchen, that forces me to pull my shirt up over my nose and inch about the room as if it's filled with landmines.

That being said, it is larger than it looks in the pictures, with two windows, space for a breakfast nook, and a backdoor that leads out to the garage.

On the to do list is:

1. Gut the whole lot!
2. New cabinets, shaker style (paint-grade solid wood)
3. New counters, honed black granite
4. Subway tile back splash
5. New flooring, hex tile salvaged fir floors, painted "Jadeite" green
6. New sink, faucet, plumbing
7. Gas range
8. New hood vent
9. Sub-zero fridge (thank you, Dean!)
10. New sheet rock, if needed
11. Fresh paint
12. New wiring
13. New outlet covers
14. School House Electric Lighting (if the budget allows, most likely, I'll end up at IKEA!)
