7th Inning Stretch!

I'm back from vacation! I went to San Diego Comic Con last week and it was a blast. Saw some cool celebs, watched some awesome TV show panels and shouted at John Barrowman.

As for the apartment, it's seriously almost done. While I was away, the remaining cabinets were installed as were the new moldings. The place is looking real spiffy! All that's left to do (and it's the most important!) is get a countertop, install stove and microwave, sand floors and paint the apartment! The end is near! So very near!! Check out some new pics below.

Xoxo, J.

Another Kitchen update!

Hey y'all! Just wanted to post another update on the kitchen. All of the cabinets have been installed and I put lights in. Putting in recessed lights was the best thing ever! It looks so HGTV! Now just waiting for moldings to go in, appliances, kitchen handles and knobs, light fixtures and kitchen countertop! The place is shaping up nicely. I can't wait to have you all over! :-)

Almost done!

This is all so surreal. 

I sometimes have to remind myself that this is really happening!

Kitchen appliances were delivered Saturday (sans Microwave, it's on backorder but no one told me this -_-) and look amazing. However, the range oven was delivered with a dent on the side of it. I called Best Buy and they offered me a 10% reduction in price in the form of a gift card which I will use to buy the washer and dryer at the end of the year. The dent is in a place where it cannot be seen once it is fully integrated in the kitchen. 

The cabinets are being installed today and tomorrow and look official. I am so pleased with how they look! However, I need to follow up on the hinges. I feel like I bought hinge damper's but when I closed the cabinets doors, they slammed shut. Gotta look into this! I really really wanted door dampers. I like my silence! Below are some pictures. I'm hoping to get a countertop installed by the end of July, early August as I would like to move in soon. More pictures to follow! I'll keep you posted!
