Quick update - finished major parts of the kitchen remodel

I wanted to post a quick update on things.  I know it’s been a while since the last post and it’s a bummer…but I just have so little time to do all the things I’d like to be doing.  Anyway, we’ve finished the texturing of the main walls in the kitchen, added the decorative iron piece above the sink, and finished the last set of cabinets.  Whew!

Basically the only thing left that is a major project in the kitchen is the texture and painting of the faux brick wall.  It doesn’t look bad the way it is now, so I am not in a major hurry to get it done.  I can live with it for a while as we focus on the master bedroom next.  The brick project will involve filling in the mortar joints with joint compound, doing some faux weathering and aging on the bricks, and adding a little bit of the same plaster texture over top of some of the bricks to make it look as if there was an old stucco coating at one time.

In the meantime it’s just nice to have such a major section of work complete.  As promised I will put together a tutorial with all the pictures that would be useful if you want to do a kitchen remodel like this.  Until then…take ‘er easy.
