Shopping!

Today's post is about all the things we've bought over the last month to get ready for our new kitchen.

   This is our new delta kitchen faucet - brushed nickel.

Our undermount kitchen sink, bought by Wendy's mom for Eric's birthday.
The colour is called anthracite - it is dark grey.

This shows you the faucet handle next to a sample of our laminate counter top and with a sample of our backsplash tiles. I think they look great together. We would love to install quartz countertops but it is something we've compromised on to save money.
 


These two pictures show you our pendant lights lit and unlit. We will have three of them hanging over our breakfast bar. We wanted something unobtrusive so that they wouldn't impede your vision (now that that wall will be gone) and would add to the sense of openness.




For Eric's birthday Wendy bought him this gas stove (GE Profile).
This is something he has always wanted and never could have since we have never had a gas hook up. One is being installed in the new kitchen.
So we had to get a new range hood too. Our other one had seen better days.
Last photo today is our new bar stools - three for the breakfast bar.
 
Now what we can't show you is the hardwood - it is Red Oak unfinished oak ¾” x 3 1/4”. It will be stained in place to match our existing refinished hardwood upstairs - gunstock colour.
