'Before' and 'After' Pictures

If you're tired of house renovation updates, I'm sorry... This has just been taking up most of our time lately, so I had to at least put a few entries. This will hopefully be the last kitchen update for a while... Back to wedding updates after this ;). Now to the 'Before' and 'After' comparisons:

Flooded kitchen with old white appliances and old countertops:

Old white appliances with new granite countertops:

New black appliances with new granite countertops (the microwave still needs to be installed, and the pantry doorknob is now brushed nickel):

I love it. My favorite update from the weekend (probably because I've been used to my awesome refrigerator for the last couple years) is the stove. We found it on Craigslist for under 50% of the regular price. It's only 2 months old and has never been used. The burners are spotless and the cast iron burner covers that cover the entire top of the stove are pretty hardcore.                                                                                                                                 Workers actually came in the day of the garage sale to clean the tile and grout, and any of the tile that had been damaged through the work on the house has been repaired. There's still a small list of things that need to be touched up by the contractors/workers, but it's almost finished!
