our kitchen renovation : day 21

I know that we have no power or lights out in the new kitchen area but that hasn’t stopped us moving more things out there and making us feel right at home. Over the weekend retro daddy had the very fun job of putting up some ikea. All 12 chairs and stools. He was so dedicated that I came home from early morning mass and there he was in his pj’s putting the last of the stools together. Now that is dedication!

Retro daddy also loves to take a moment to admire it all and tell me how nicely it’s all coming together. Which is a relief since he pretty much let me pick everything. We are now just itching to get the power and lights on so we can start cooking, eating and hanging out there. Bring on Friday when it should all be happening!

  20. Corrie, this is my dreamy kitchen/dinning room! Love white furniture and your stunning french doorsar out of this world! Please, let me live in your home in sunny and warm Australia and I’ll offer you Poland in exchange, the middle of Europe ๐Ÿ˜‰ There will be snow here soon, and you can take your 4 blessings for some snow activities like skiikng, snowboard or skating ๐Ÿ˜‰ All these acivities are available just in 15 minutes by walk from my home and I do not live in a village though ๐Ÿ˜‰ LOL

  22. WOW Corrie, it’s looking a treat. Love all the bits and pieces you’ve added already and that’s without lights. I can imagine how beautiful it is going to look all finished. Exciting! xo

  23. Poor Retro Daddy – all those IKEA flat boxes with funny screws and umpteen pieces. The chairs look great!!

  24. Wow Corrie, it looks great! I’ve been following with interest as I chose a very similar look for my new kitchen which we finished earlier in the year. I love the tiles, I wish I had gone for those now!! Hope you can get everything connected and get cooking very soon!

  25. All I want for Christmas is a kitchen just like yours!!! Unfortunately, it wouldn’t fit in my house so when we get around to renovating our kitchen, hopefully I can go for a smaller scale version.

    I totally love ur new kitchen and thank you for sharing the journey with us!

  26. Oh bliss-room! What fun you’ll have this Christmas in that space!
