Still in Phase Four

Still in phase four of our kitchen remodel, it's taking us some time but we're getting their. As with any project, problems always arise along the way. Originally we had, set a budget and plan to do the work within a two week frame, so we thought...But once we started tearing down the base cabinets and the drywall behind, we realize we had some plumbing work to do.

The bathroom was remodeled at some point prior to us purchasing our home. And whomever did the remodeling work did so by tearing down some base and upper cabinets in the kitchen to have access to the plumbing in the bath. Well when this work was done to the bathroom, they didn't properly install some fixtures to the bath-tub and the plumbing in between the wall was not properly done. So the DH decided to fix the plumbing issues, since we had access to them. So this has pushed our project and our budget a little further, and it is why we are still in phase four. Also because their just isn't enough hours in the day to get this done, with a full time job...But our goal is to have a beautiful and working kitchen by Thanksgiving. I'm really looking forward to this day.

This is what else is going on, I have this perfect little corner in the kitchen with two corner windows and I always envisioned a breakfast banquette for that little space. Thank goodness for Pinterest because I have found all sorts of inspiration for that space. Now, how do I fit it in the budget...
