*Funny side note
David and I had talked about edges/details of the granite early on, but never came to a definite decision. So, when Saturday rolled around and Josaphat at Renaissance Stone Works was cutting the granite, David wanted to confer with me and talk it out one last time. Well, I wasn't available. So, Josaphat and David declared their manhood and made the decisions themselves. And what good ones they turned out to be.
*One other side note. I finally started using my "good" camera to start taking better shots of the space. I think at this point it warrants that.
The sink and faucet. Stainless steel one basin sink, about 9-10" deep. "You can bathe a baby in there!"
Giallo Ornamental granite.
The whole kitchen finished off with the granite countertops. Note the thicker island... yeah, wait till you see this...
One of David and Josaphat's grand "Man-decisions" was to do the island in a double, 6cm chiseled edge. It basically looks like one massive piece of rock in there. Its awesome. The other counters have a 1/2 bullnose edge. It looks good in contrast and will blend in nicely.
Hall bathroom. Apollo Storm granite. Goes very well with the honey onyx diamonds in the shower.
"Pretty" shot of the Apollo Storm and faucet.
Master Bathroom. Breccia Sarda Limestone.
Breccia Sarda, faucet and sink. Breccia Sarda means "broken sardine", so we're told.
We are still truckin' away at trim cutting, hole filling, caulking and painting. Here is a picture of David as he measures/cuts his baseboards. He is really good.
All the plumbing is pretty much done... HD Walker is to thank for that ;) Exterior stuff will most likely start this weekend and next week. Carpet is a little slow going, but we are hopeful to have it here around Easter. At that point, David can move back in... to essentially a new house.
We are all simply amazed at the transformation that has occured.
The next fun part is staging. And boy howdy do we girls have many things up our sleeves.
