I took the task today to pack up most of the kitchen and dining room. We are probably 95% done at this point, excluding furniture. It’s a big help that our stuff is not going into a moving van, so the fragile items need to be carefully packed but not bomb-proof. And certain things I unpacked onto shelves rather than leave them in boxes or crates.
I was even able to re-install our venerable oak shelves (originally from the mudroom in Southboro) by hanging them from the floor joists. This is over the spot where we’re intending to relocate one small section of the existing kitchen’s lower cabinets & countertop. I think these will be very helpful.
