House Update!

21 Aug

Well we are officially one week away from settlement and it’s amazing to see the daily changes taking place in the house!  Just today I saw our builder, the carpet layer, the tile layer, several electricians, the painter, the hardware installers, the kitchen installers, the plumber, and a house cleaner on-site throughout the day!  We’re so close that I don’t want to give away too much (waiting to do a “reveal” post next week!) but I did want to share a few of my favorite photos!

    I am amazed at how absolutely beautiful your home is, Jessica. Just seeing what you had chosen in earlier posts was fun for me…but to see it IN your home now just really makes it unbelievable. You guys did a great job choosing things to make your home comfortable but modern. Can’t wait to see the big reveal…and to come visit sometime. 🙂

    How do you like your kitchen sink? I’m looking at purchasing the same one but haven’t found many reviews on it? How does it look next to a stainless dishwasher? It looks beautiful!

      Sandra, I love it. Hopefully you can access these photos. I tried to include both the dishwasher and sink…please ignore the mess! 🙂 I will tell you that it does scratch inside the basin as would any stainless steel sink but it looks pretty natural.
