Welcome to my Kitchen! If you have been following along for the past few months, you have probably seen that Kev and I moved into our 1st home together. I posted various updates as our house was being built, but I haven’t posted any updates since we have moved in.
We pretty much had everything organized after the first weekend, but we are still in the process of putting our home together. We went from a 2 bedroom apartment to a 2 story house, so lets just say, we have a few bare walls and empty rooms! This is probably the most exciting part, because I know that the house will fill up as we continue our lives together. But, for now, we have an empty dining room.
So, this process of a “home tour” will probably be slow. But for now, my kitchen is pretty much complete so I decided to share it with you. I am so in love with our granite color and dark cabinets. I have always been drawn to dark cabinets and they have not disappointed. But, i’m not going to lie, I may or may not, be able to reach the top of the cabinets. Hey, thats why I have a tall husband, right?!
Also, my aunt and uncle got us these adorable kitchen towels for Christmas. She knows me well, I love a good initial/monogram gift. By far, we get the most compliments on our sink. Its crazy I know, but people just love it! Kev takes all the credit for making the decision to put in the granite, deep sink & let me tell you, it was a great decision. It makes doing dishes slightly fun and way easier.
& to add a little personalization. I always keep my ring holder next to the sink for when I am doing dishes. Don’t want that baby to fall down the drain.
Anyway, hope you enjoyed a little look around my kitchen and I can’t wait to be able to show you more in future!

Love the dark cabinets! Such a bold decision and they turned out beautifully! From my experience more than not people are afraid of a little color or going against the norm, and I love your decision to go with them!

The kitchen looks so pretty!! I love the darker woods.
Marquis Clarke
thanks for a great reminder and practical examples of how to show respect. I needed those particulars to give me a better idea of how to and I see how I’m really doing more harm than
I realized with my words.

Beautiful kitchen!

What color are your cabinets? Are they brushed with stain, gel stain, paint or what? What was your process to doing them?
Marquis Clarke
Krystal Lynne ChismI’m not sure, they came like that already from our builder.

What are your kitchen dimensions ? The island fits perfectly. Our kitchen is similar in size. Want an island , but want to make sure we have enough room.
