Just a LIttle Trim for Bargain House

Work on Bargain House continues. The lipstick is doing this little pig a big favor. On Monday, Hick sent pictures of his latest progress.


The old glass-paned kitchen door that leads to the laundry room/back entrance has been painted. It just needs trim, which I think will be white. Black was considered, but that might be too much of a contrast. I'm pretty sure it got a new doorknob, too.


The ceiling is painted, and the area above the cabinets has been covered with flooring. I thought Hick was going to just paint it white, but I like the flooring there. It looks more like a kitchen, and less like an operating room, heh, heh. There's the space for the new stove and refrigerator.


The new stove and refrigerator, which are currently cooling their tiny metal feet in the living room, awaiting their grand entrance. You can see where Hick was putting the black trim along the ceiling and the backsplash/counter. He ran out, and had to paint some more.


Hick is slowly learning. Here, he said, "All trim in." And on the first three pictures, he said, "Kitchen painted and almost trimmed."

The flooring is now in progress. Most of the kitchen is done, but Hick ran out of flooring, and had to order another box. It should be here next week. Lowe's doesn't stock this gray flooring, which is the same as what Hick put above the cabinets.

The kitchen has turned out nicer than I expected.
