We've been in our house almost seventeen years and have been slowly remodeling our kitchen. We've changed the window, the lighting, one wall of cabinets, lots of trim. Got a new oven and a new refrigerator. This year we are doing the biggest part of the project. It will be expensive and invasive. We are replacing the island, which has the cooktop in it. And we are getting a Vent-A-Hood.We currently have a downdraft vent which is not at all effective and yet is very noisy and hard to clean. The new hood will be a huge honkin' thing that is suspended from the ceiling over the island. The photo is our hood mockup. John made it out of a stick frame covered in brown paper. It IS big but I think it will be okay.
John ia making the island cabintes and I am excited about having new beautiful cabinets instead of cheap stock cabinets that are falling apart.
Moving slowly on our kitchen project has been great. We can modify our our choices as we go. I highly recommend it. Good for the budget, too.

Our kitchen project is underway. John is making the cabinets. We have someone lined up for the demolition. It will be such a treat to have someone else do that part. July 9th is Demolition Day.
