Been working on a kitchen renovation, bit by bit. Floors, cabinets, counter... Basically everything except for appliances and general layout. The last big step was the tile backsplash, and my friend helped me with caulking it this past weekend (she said she has a pretty good touch with that, and I know I probably don't). Turned out pretty good!

Normally my dad would help me with stuff like that, but he lives a few states away. He knows I've been working on it, but hasn't seen any progress pictures in a long time. It'll be fun to show him when my parents come to visit this week!

Down to some trim work (floor, cabinet toe kicks) and a few other odds and ends!

Couple photos before caulking. Too many soulless, sterile, monochromatic kitchens out there. I have some white/gray stuff, but only with some strategy involved. Gray counters hide food. White cabinets are timeless and easy to match. I was sure to add color where I could otherwise, and the backsplash was a great option!
