Turning a House into a Home: Remodeling the Kitchen

My main goal this year for 2014 is to remodel my kitchen.   My kitchen is so small I feel claustrophobic if anyone else is in the kitchen with me.

My kitchen is literally 9 x 10 feet and has three doors coming off of it. It’s so small you have to walk out of the room to change your mind.

Excuse the clutter and the rugs, I was in the middle of sweeping and mopping floors.

My partially stainless steal stove sits in between the basement doorway and the refrigerator.  If you didn’t read the post Stainless Steal Gone Wrong Parts 1 and part 2, be sure to  read it before you leave.

 This wall separates the kitchen from the dining room.  It must come down!

To fix the area problem I’m going to remove  the non-supporting wall between the kitchen and the dining room.  Say good bye to the formal dinning room and hello large eat in kitchen. The demolition of the wall is coming very soon and I’ll be sharing the process here on Scrapality.com.    

By eliminating the wall between the kitchen and the dining room, I’ll add an extra 12 x 13 amount of space to the kitchen.  That will give us approximately a 13 x 22 size kitchen.  That’s plenty of space to work with when designing my new kitchen.  This process will take awhile, maybe the whole year, but it’ll be well worth it in the end.

Stay tuned for the demolition of the wall…
