Bathrooms and Kitchens, Oh My! (Renovation Update)

By Homewithbaxter @homewithbaxter
Hey hey! Today I have a long overdue renovation update.  The construction work should be finished this week and then I can start putting the house back together.  I want to say a big thank you to the guys at  L&M Construction.  They have done a fabulous job on our home and they are always such a pleasure to work with!  If you're in the Southern NH or Northern MA area, definitely check them out.
Yesterday, a new pedestal sink and toilet were installed and the bathroom walls received a couple of coats of Benjamin Moore Rock Gray.

I selected the Kohler Memoirs Pedestal Sink, the Kohler Cimarron Toilet, and the American Standard Portsmouth Widespread Faucet in chrome.

I decided to carry the beadboard above the countertop.  I'm contemplating adding either shelving or art between the two cabinets to break up some of the white. I had the cabinet pulls kicking around so we installed them, but they're not my favorite.  They will get swapped out at some point. I have a flush mount light fixture waiting to be installed in place of the lonely lightbulb.

The washer and dryer fit pretty much perfectly under the new counter.  I'm so happy that we decided to remove the closet.  The small space feels so much bigger now.

And of course, the hexagon marble floors are my favorite! They match really nicely with the gray tile we selected for the hall and kitchen.

Here's another shot of the new french door and the hallway with the flooring done and walls painted.  I chose Benjamin Moore Edgecomb Gray for the kitchen and hallway.  It's a great greige color that changes with the lighting and other nearby colors. It plays nicely with the Benjamin Moore Spanish Olive that we used to paint the den last year.

Here's the completed half wall.  I love how it opens up the space!

And here's a sneak peak of the kitchen with most of the cabinets done.  I chose Benjamin Moore Decorator's White for the cabinets.  It's a bright white with a little gray tint to it.
