I guess we’re really doing this! We ordered the kitchen cabinets yesterday. We may be a little on the early side to order — we told them we’d like delivery in mid-May — but the current incentives at Lowes were too good to pass up. As Gina points out, our design has a good amount of flexibility in exact placement since the fridge and stove walls are open-ended, and the sink wall has the to-be-built pantry on one side. So if some dimension winds up being not quite what it is today, it will still come out all right.
Those who follow my Project 365 will have seen the following two pictures. The first is the sample door, countertop, and drawer pull that we’ve chosen. The door is cherry with a pecan stain, and the countertop is Giallo Nova Silestone. The cabinets are finalized now, since we’ve ordered them, and we’re really quite happy with the countertop and so we’re very likely to stick with that choice. We like the pull quite a bit, but haven’t found a knob that goes well with it yet so it’s not the final choice quite yet.![]()
