Gobsmacked.

Am so completely bowled over by our latest acquisition. A bargain in its truest form - the above hood. Found for us by the fabulous Shady Couple on this weekend's scout of the Habitat for Humanity's ReStore . If you have never been I highly suggest a visit. Habitat's ReStore is a complete box of chocolate, one in which you never know just what you will get. For instance, this hood for our in-progress kitchen remodel, a complete SCORE at just 20 bucks!


Perfect timing we are gearing up to tackle that side of the kitchen right now. Tweaks to the floor plan are gladly being made to make it work.
Shooting for a finished project at least half as beautiful as the kitchen above.

    WOW!!! Don't you LOVE when that happens? It makes your "find" that much sweeter. When the job is completed, I hope you do a show and tell!

    I'd say "hood"-winked!
    I can't wait to look under that hood when you do the renovated kitchen debut!

    Yahoo... now that is a steal! I have heard about this store I'm going to have to put this on my task.
    I came over from Kwana. I read about your Christmas gift and wanted to see if you posted a picture of your pup yet.

    AMAZING!!! When I used to do salvage, we'd get things like that in sometimes, and they'd be snapped up instantly!

    I just did a post that you'll love - lots of salvage in the house of a former client of ours.

    I'd be happy if you could just keep posting that kitchen picture once a week. I think it truly is one of the most beautiful I have ever seen.
    Thanks for your kind words!
