People have asked for complete pics of the island, and I promise I will get to that. But first I want to document the progress. Here you can see shots with the complete wall cabinets in place - including the missing cabinet, picked up by P's brother R in Boston. After the countertop installation on the island, G set out to tile the the backsplash with leftover subway tiles. Her efficiency is crazy at this point. But we ran out of tiles. This is as far as we got before a trip to Nemo to get more. After we used up what we had, we cut and installed the wood countertop on the back counter - the cutout you see is where the gas cooktop will sit.

I didn't like what you did to those great floors but your kitchen looks like it will be great. Keep posting the pics.

Hi!

It's exciting watching it all come together. Are you installing an oven anywhere?

Shelley

ps - I like your floors.

Shelley - thanks, we'll be installing an oven underneath the cooktop in the cabinet you see pictured (beneath the cutout in the countertop).

another question:

How high is your kitchen ceiling and are those 30" or 39" wall cabinets from Ikea?

thanks again,

Shelley, never answered your question. we have about 8' clear here on the lower level, and the cabinets are the 39" wall cabs from Ikea.
