So much to catch up on.  We had decided to get the kitchen at least partially done and started just before Christmas so it would be ready for the holiday.

Because Brian will build doors for the cabinets later on we decided on the cheapest Ikea door we could get so we would not feel bad when we get rid of them later.  It took a few weeks to get the order from Ikea and once we got started the cabinets were so easy to put together.  We have done these before so we knew what to expect.  One thing we found helpful with such a lot of boxes stacked in the garage was to mark the cabinet size on the outside of the box facing us so it was easy to boxes out of the piles. Even with them sorted it made the job faster.

Once the corner was fixed we got right to installing and had it mostly done in a week.  Levelling the older corner was the hardest part.  I must admit the sink was also a problem since there are three drains it was hard to plum and carry around.  It is lovely though.

Not easy to level hand hewn logs.

Had to rejig the electrical one we had the cupboards in.

Yuk

Will be glad to see this gone.

I have been using laundry tubs for so long.

This is so hard to keep clean.
