Kitchen is gutted!
When we bought our house, we knew the kitchen was going to get updated right away. There was a sink, a stove and a few old overhead cabinets. There was a suspended ceiling that we didn’t like with not much lighting and the floors were in poor shape.

So after a few weeks of demo, the ceiling and walls are completely bare. It took a while because the plaster was in bad shape and I wanted to remove all of the lath (wood strips behind the plaster to support it). Some of the insulation is still hanging in there, so the more we can keep up the better. The plan is to have about 9 recessed lights in the ceiling and maybe a pendant above the sink.
Knob and Tube wiring that has to be updated! Yeah!
