New Kitchen, Part 18: Lower Cabinets Installed

YIPPEEEEEEEE! It’s getting exciting here on the home front!

I can’t believe I forgot to get my camera when they started the installation! Kevin was happy! 😀

The cabinets are white. The brown end and back panels you see are where there are still pieces which still need to be installed. That will be done later… 😉

Here is the front of the peninsula… the two on the left have toe kick drawers at the bottom, as does the one on the bottom right in the above picture.

…Another angle… Hubby went and got wine bottles to see how they fit in the wine cubby and two “normal” size bottles will fit end-to-end in each cubby. So we can store 10 bottles if we want.

Even with the movable shelves in the “blind corner”, there is still empty space, so I will be able to store a few tall items that I rarely use.

I am getting SOOOOO excited!!! I see the light at the end of the tunnel… 😀 …too bad it’s still three weeks away! 🙁
