Since nobody liked the gray flooring alongside the gray patterned countertop, Hick went shopping for other backsplash options for Bargain House. Apparently, Hick is easily distracted by SHINY things, and came back with this on Sunday:
"How do you like this seems will line up." I liked it just fine. So on Monday, Hick fastened it into place.
"Two pieces on rest tomorrow." I asked if he was going to put it around the window. "Window gets trimmed so maybe above the window."
Wednesday, Hick put the counter and sink in place, and trimmed the window.
"Sink and counter setting in place got to put the corner in." Hick is short two pieces of the backsplash. He went to Lowe's for more, and it is out of stock, so he ordered it. Also, he wanted to get some handles for the cabinets. They were on sale. But out of stock! Hick ordered them, too. They are black, long handles, not knobs.
Hick is at a standstill until his materials come in. Supposedly on Monday. He will be putting down that gray flooring, but not until Old Buddy is done painting, and with the ceiling. Just about all that remains will be painting the door, and getting under the house to hook up the sink pipes. And power-washing the side of the house, once the temperature is above freezing for a day or two. Oh, and putting on the door for the shower in the small bathroom, which Hick had to order.
Bargain House nears completion!
I like it and the black cabinet hardware will pop nicely. Hick is becoming a true decorator!
ReplyDeleteHick's visions usually turn out better than I expected. Except for that gray flooring as a proposed backsplash.
DeleteI like the backsplash, it is coming together nicely!!
ReplyDeleteI agree. That shiny stuff adds a nice touch.
DeleteIt looks really nice and the long black handles will go great with it.
ReplyDeleteThe kitchen might turn out to be the best part of the house.
