not too much progress lately, lots of vists to IKEA
There hasn’t been too much progress lately. Found out that the person that built the IKEA order at IKEA included the wrong cabinets for above the stove and fridge. They were the super deep cabinets, we ended up keeping the 24″ deep cabinet for above the fridge but I had to once again go back to IKEA to exchange the other one for above the stove.
Also found out that the back panel for the IKEA pantry was damaged in shipping so I had to return that as well. They ended up having to open two other pantry cabinet boxese at IKEA since one of the was cracked in the same place (bad packaging I presume). The lady at the return counter ended up giving me some extra shelves for the pantry though since everything from the open box was just going in the trash she said.
I also picked up the rest of the door pulls from Lee Valley since a few were on backorder when we picked them up. On the way back home I stopped at Home Depot and found some base board trim that will work fairly well to cover the exposed part of the kitchen cabinet. We can just paint it the same color as the wall I think.
All the cabinets *should* be done today, and the granite installers are coming tomorrow so I will need to take part of the day off it looks like. The only things left in the kitchen is the under cabinet lighting and then getting the tile back splash installed (which won’t be done until the new year I think).
