I've wrapped up installing new cabinets and new appliances on the south wall of our kitchen. It's pretty much done.
Well, pretty much done,... except the permanent countertops, backsplash, toe-kicks, paint, and some kind of filler at the top of the cabinets. Regardless, we're using it now and already love it.
Temporary countertops in their glory
Now with a slight turn to the left, I'm turning my attention to the north wall. The hideous, outdated north wall.
It's the same 1970's wooden cabinetry with a bumped-out soffit covered with an ugly wallpaper depicting an oil-painty scene of grapes and crown molding.
We believe the pass-through window to the family room the original back window of the house. It's a weird little thing that doesn't belong in the center of the home.
I may have an excuse to buy some more tools. It think I'm up to it.
Fun With Demolition
I got my demo tools out and started the tear-out of the cabinets and soffit.
I've been breaking this project into bite-size weekend and evening pieces, starting and stopping with enough time for cleanup. We're continuing to live in the war-zone during the week. Admittedly, we've probably already broken some sort of world's record for carryout food consumption.
I looked at my photos at the end of the day and decided to make it into a quick slide show / movie. I think you still have time to nominate it for an Academy Award...
I hope you liked it. I may do more of video in the future, especially when I've already shown similar content with previous, still-shot blog posts. Like demolishing the south wall. Remember to follow my You-Tube Channel to keep up with future content.

I've got some great stuff coming up on this project, including some sweet, new tools to put through their paces.
