Cabinets ordered

Almost a sign-off meeting with the kitchen designer, still need some measurements, but I'm on a short leash to sign off as soon as she's done, and write a very, very large check for our cabinets. We made some changes that will save some money, such as changing one drawer design to another that won't require a custom cabinet; or removing some drawers.

It's going to be spectacular. I'm still not sure how it ended up "spectacular," I'd have been fine with "great," but these things have a tendency to run away with me.




The cabinet order alone will cost over $70,000, but it's for far more than a kitchen -- it includes a desk area, pantry, hutch, and entertainment area -- over 30 drawers, 50 shelves, and 80 handles. Then the countertops and appliances are on top of that. Gulp.
