I did it. We did it. Everyone did it. It truly took a village to get this One Room Challenge finished.  

We did get the interior done with a little punch list as to be expected but, the exterior is still ongoing.

I am over the moon to finally have a working kitchen again.

My children are looking forward to a home cooked meal for the first time in a very long time.

I am going to even attempt Thanksgiving at our house. Cooking lessons needed.

Without further ado, I present our new kitchen.

Outdoor Fixtures:

They are by Craftmade. I chose the The Wolford Sconce  because I love the combination of black and brass with the seeded glass. They are perfectly transitional. You can find them HERE. These are not installed but I will share as soon as they are!

Reminder: here are the before images of the kitchen, breakfast room, laundry room and porch that are the area I renovated. The porch was actually removed for the addition.  Our outdoor plan and landscaping has gotten way behind. The entry looks straight down the hall through to the current kitchen.
