Lovely Kitchen

This kitchen is so lovely, I would love to take it with me to Laramie! It was so much fun to plan the whole this out. The floor plan has been waiting for execution for years, but the cabinets, counter tops, lighting, flooring and trim were picked out this year. The original plan was for Bill to make the cabinets, but since we weren't going to be living in the new kitchen for long, Bill didn't want to put all the time in. And I think the white is wonderfull with the wood trim and and laminate flooring.


Bill did make the trim for most of the house. The kitchen, dining room and living room have the spirals on all the corners of the window and door trim. That was my imput.


The island in 48" by 48". It is so nice to be able to make a salad while someone else is wrapping a present or chopping vegetable and still not be in each others way.


Finally, photos of the new house


I know, I know, I said I'd add photos right away, and yes, that was six weeks ago, but I am finally doing it now. I am nothing, if not a procrastinator.
Here are some photos of the house now known as the Laramie House. It faces east and is very beige. The outside is beige and the inside is beige with cream trim. The carpets are beige also. I'll have to live in it for a while before I decide what to paint the inside. The outside will stay beige.
The master bedroom is upstairs and faces west. In the day I can see the Snowy Range mountains and at night I can see the lights of Laramie. It is quite lovely.


Bill will have his shop in the basement. It has a nice gound level entry so he won't have to haul stuff through the house.


I am looking forward to Bill moving over here. I have been spending the week days in Laramie and going to Saratoga on the weekends. Soon Bill will start coming here on the weekends, since the Saratoga house is close to finsihed, but that is another blog entry.
