Completed Kitchen Remodel

Here are all of the before and after pictures of the kitchen remodel. This is the bay window before.
Bay window after- the most noticible changes in the photo are the lack of a window sill and the new shades.

I am so glad Chris talked me into the remodel! I wasn't too keen at first because we had already put so much money and work into upgrades in the house. With the housing market the way it is I was afraid that we wouldn't get anything in return when we're ready to sell in a couple years. I was really set on an undermount sink though as I HATED the sink we had before. I knew if I wanted that we'd have to replace the counter tops and then we might as well just do it all. The pictures don't show how nice the finished product looks, but we are very happy with how it turned out!
Close up of the new counters and backsplash. The counter tops are Romanite (a solid surface) and were installed by my uncle who owns the company. They look great and clean up easy! They look like they are granite. We got the stone for the backsplash at Biehn Floorworks in Bristol. We also went with them for the bathroom remodel and highly recommend them! They are wonderful and VERY helpful especially when the whole process is overwhelming for people!
Finished view of the window over the sink. Before the window frame went all the up to the cupboards. We were able to run the stone up the sides of the window now. Did I mention I LOVE my undermount sink!! I'll never go back! The crank out window is much easier for my vertically challenged body to open and close too.
