CKC-Valley Forge class

I'll be teaching for mlpa at the Valley Forge Creating Keepsakes Convention the first weekend in August! Registration begins this Wednesday! The class is called "Clearly Cool" and is a great clear scalloped wallhanging!
It'll be a really fun class!! Make sure you say hi to me and let me know you read about it on my blog!

Wednesday will be the day!! Our appliances are being delivered Wednesday morning! The counter top was installed on Friday and it's even more beautiful than I had imagined! The texture in it is so amazing! It's gorgeous!!!



As you can see, we have a sink! It is not a working sink at this moment, but it is so nice to have one there!! I love the undermount! Tomorrow morning at 8am, the whole crew will be here again. The plumber will hook up the plumbing and garbage disposal, all the molding will go in and the backsplash will go up!

The end is so close in sight! I can't believe the time has come!! It's been 3 VERY LONG weeks without a kitchen! I never want to remodel another kitchen in my life! I miss my sink and really dislike washing dishes in the kids bathtub!

I bought all of the necessary kitchen accessories on Friday. I just need to find a good valance or tier for the windows. I'll probably look for that tomorrow or Tuesday! We also need to get some stainless outlet covers too!

I'm sure I'll be updating tomorrow with some almost finished pics!

Have a great week!
