Kitchen Complete!

As we are heading into the home stretch, I am very anxious to declare some areas of the house finished.  I think that the kitchen is pretty much done.  All I have to do is move in my dishes and start cooking! 

I don’t really know how to categorize the look of the kitchen.  It is transitional with a bit of a Tuscan flair, I guess.  I wanted a space that was warm and inviting, and I believe that we achieved that.  I am thrilled with how the granite picks up on the wall color and really ties the look together.  And the lighting fixture is really fun.  The true test of the planning will be how the kitchen functions as a work space and the flow of the family as we cook and clean up.  So I will need to report back on how that goes!

The appliances look great -- they are not luxury brands, but they will function beautifully and helped me save resources for other aspects of the house
