Now that we had finished painting the dining room it seemed like a perfect idea to take down the wall that we just painted! Well Cacky thought so anyway. Actually I am glad we tore it down I just wish this idea came before we painted it.
Taking down the wall has opened up the the kitchen and the dining room immensely.
I have learned from the best, when you are going to tare something down, just start swinging, figure out the details later.
Who is this guy?
After we started taking down the wall we realized it would be in our best interest to put up a header, just in case.
We then had to rerun some of electrical that was in that wall and add some of our own for hanging lighting over what will become the breakfast bar.
At some point during this the Cabinets had to come out.
Cabinets gone! Except for the sink which we sawzalled around.
Let me tell you, not having a kitchen sucks. it's not very fun to have your fridge in the dining room. At this point it feels like the kitchen is miles away from being done..
Taking down that wall really did open things up!!! Way to go!
ReplyDeletethe biggest reason behind the renovation is to open things up! There is this crazy tall wall between our kitchen and our living room, and it has really become such a burden in day to day life. bathroom designer
