Updates from the last month
We have seen a huge amount of progress while we were out of town for the last 3 weeks! The drywallers made our kitchen and den look like real rooms, and the painters came in a week later. It was pretty amazing when trying to pick a color for the kitchen cabinets and trim. Brian and I both agreed that we liked the look of white cabinets over wood for the period of our house. However, we did not know that Benjamin Moore had over 150 whites! Of course, each white looked different in different lights. We settled on one and love it, but it was a little crazy thinking about how many variations of white are out there…
The first picture is our counter top – soapstone. It is exactly what we were looking for! The second picture is looking from the den into the kitchen.
The 3rd picture is one of our favorite features. Jeff, of Urban Design, designed this info center to store all of our technology that used to be dispersed around the house. It is between the kitchen and our den. The lower cabinets will hold our printer, files and other assorted junk that tends to gather in piles. It counter is at standing height, so we can use our laptop standing or pull up a stool. We love it so far!
And speaking of Urban Design, we have had an amazing remodel experience. We are right on time and any increase in budget has been a few additions that Brian and I chose to add. The next week, they are installing the french doors in the den. Can’t wait to see them!

So which white did you pick?
