Kitchen Remodel Accomplished

I’m so excited! I love my cozy kitchen! As every mother knows the kitchen is the heart of the home. I had my first special recollection this summer enjoying my new space. It was a perfect summer afternoon I was wearing an airy sundress, standing bare foot in front of my stove stirring a big pot of my famous curry. I had some enjoyable music playing and my sweet dog Burton was laying on his rug, my husband was on the front porch enjoying a cigar, sitting in his rocking chair, I can hear Kaia and her friend jumping cannon balls into the pool. At that moment my life seriously could not be more perfect; my heart was swelling with joy as I thought about how blessed our life has been. Ummm.. these little moments make all the daily chaos totally worth it. Anyway here are some updated photos of our new kitchen.
Scott did an incredible job with the ceiling tiles, I know it was quite time consuming for him but I’m so happy with the look it gave the room.
The copper backsplash adds the drama and contrast to the room; I used two shades of copper throughout the kitchen
At last, I got my copper sink! This tied in the ceiling, counter trim and backsplash
No Kitchen is complete without a coffee station ;)

Kitchen Remodel Status: Still In Progress but Almost Done

This Wallpaper is so sooo busy! The Lighting way to dim for the space and the fixture is to small scale for the room, it's a cool, original antique, but NOT functional for the Kitchen, Ill find another space in the home for this fixture.

This picture is on the dark side and doesn't show the quality of the wall. The plaster has a great texture with dimension and metallic hues to tie in the copper and stainless steal

Ahhhhhhh... now that's much better! We are currently working on the back splash and I'm saving my pennies for a copper kitchen sink. Stay Tuned.....
