• The refrigerator was the only item salvaged from the old kitchen!
• Started with 8” x 8” tumbled Jerusalem Limestone tiles, DH cut all four sides off, then cut each in half to get the “subway”style rectangle that I wanted.
• All tile backsplash & tile above range top and floor was DIY
• Still to be done: fish tank cover to match cabinets, molding trim around post and edges of backsplash areas.
• freestanding island: We took out the peninsula & put in a freestanding island. I found an old buffet & added a piece of granite on top. I supported the overhang by adding another leg on the backside. It adds some additional storage, but mainly a work surface. I originally wanted to put the island on wheels, but opted for gliders - it stays put until I want to move it out of the way.
• dog bowls: I lowered the sides of a bottom drawer so that the dogs could eat from the sides. For the water, I removed the cabinet door & put the water bowl inside so they can drink from it all day.
