Wow, I'm not sure where the time's gone. I am so bad about updating here but fortunately, you can follow along on Instagram for more frequent updates. Since the last time I've posted we've done so much, and yet, there's always more to do! This year, we have big plans! We started on the kitchen at the end of 2021 by ordering new appliances, removing the microwave and adding a vent hood.
1 Finish the Kitchen.
First and foremost, we need to add a backsplash. I haven't decided on one yet but I do love marble, I also may check out the Cloe tile from Bedrosian. We're also still deciding whether we want to build a vent hood cover or leave the stainless one exposed. Not sure yet. I'm also thinking I may change the hardware to a champagne gold, just for another layer of pretty. The final piece will be adding electrical in the pantry to move the microwave in there, which brings us to...
I did an initial fix in here by adding more shelving but I want to do it right. The plan would be to add electrical, rip out all the shelving, add cabinets, build wood shelving and some functional organization.
3 Back yard
We built our home in 2020 and had some issues with the patio concrete cracking. Fortunately, the warranty company will be replacing it but they can't do that until late spring #ColoradoProblems. Once the slab is replaced, we want to build a pergola, maybe replace the slider with French doors, build wider stairs and *fingers crossed* build in our grills. Hoping we can finish everything on our list before the end of the year.
4 Front yard
The final and most simple project will be our front yard. Our bushes we added last spring unfortunately didn't survive the summer so we will be replacing those, adding some driveway lighting, staining the fence and possibly adding some corbels on the roofline, we'll have to see if we get affordable quotes on that.
Of course I have some smaller projects planned too but those are the biggest things on our list this year. Stay tuned!
