Kitchen

Ikea kitchen cabinets are in. The Don and Len got it done. It looks great!
They put in the microwave too. I can't wait to get the stove and fridge and counter tops!

Adam installed 20 electrical outlets today. He was very helpful and didn't shock himself.

I painted "bamboo" by Dutchboy in the landing, entry way, and hall. I like it. I think it makes the bright colors stand out more.

Sadly I was at Freddy's picking up more painted when the Moldpennys stopped by. I have been wanting to show them the colors for weeks, but I missed the big day. Poo. Oh well, Len gave them the tour.
This is actually an over the counter light, but we are using them in the closets. They are super bright. It was a great idea dad got from a customer.

Dad and Len installed the linen closet from Ikea. It isn't as tall as I thought it would be. We will need to get some other type of cabinet or baskets to put above it. I like it though. It lightens up the room. We will get bathroom figures to match the metal trim.

Olivia Smiles!

How can this not just melt your heart?
Here is the classic red wall in the master bathroom with bamboo green. I like the way it turned out.
Okay. I need some opinions. I like this "sailcloth" color, but I am not sure that it sets off the chocolate and aqua. Len thinks it needs to be more brown. It is a big area. Any suggestions?

Len also doesn't like the neon green in the work out room. That is just too darn bad. I like it. I am thinking about tropical flowers on the far wall. Ideas?
This is not installed yet, but here is what the floors and trim are going to look like. This is so exciting!

Painting the Roses Red

Red wall. Red wall. We painted one wall in the powder room and one wall in the master bathroom "classic red" by dutch boy. I finally got to paint something. Now my hands are red. I've been caught red handed. Har de har har!
