More Room for Baby

Now the kitchen is warm and inviting and includes a dining table. The new bar bridges the room with the living area and creates a needed entertainment element. Crown molding over the kitchen cabinets make them appear custom made, and coordinating light fixtures tie the kitchen and bar area together. Fresh paint and window treatments, plus a matching chandelier in the newly created dining space, top it all off.
