Powder room and master bath

Looking through the doorway into the powder room. Anyone remember the old wallpaper? 
The wall is painted Naval by Sherwin Williams, and does NOT look black. 
The counter top is quartz. Plumbing should be hooked up tomorrow, and then we will have water on the first floor again!

Where the toilet will go. 

Trying to get a more realistic view of the wall color. This is close but not quite this bright.

The color is halfway between the left side and the right side here. I'm of no help here. 

Meanwhile, in the master bath, the color as shown on the wall here (Comfort Gray by SW) IS accurate. Love it.

Both sinks are in! Plumbing to be up and running by Wednesday is the goal and hope. By the way, the wall tiles and counter top are the same here as in the powder room. Just our little way to save money (and not have to make one more blasted decision).

Odds are, the next photos to be posted will be the finished, or very nearly finished results! We are hearing Friday for the kitchen goal. I'm trying to set aside all next weekend to move things back where they should go.

The rest of the cabinets, the countertops, and paint

These views should be easily identifiable by now to anyone who's been following the process. Where the oven will go:


 The sink, facing the back yard area. Microwave will go in the open space in the cabinet on the upper right.

Facing the dining room. Still waiting on doors for the pantry. 

Facing the back door. Final decisions on paint, as can be seen above and below. We went with the lower color, Gray Screen by Sherwin Williams. The hallway will be Sand Dollar (also Sherwin Williams), which you can see in a very small swatch on the wall above the putty areas.

Yes, we are very excited, and the latest word is that we will be back in both rooms by this coming Friday (earlier for the bathroom, hopefully). Which means, the plumber, the painter, the carpenter, and the tiler will all be around most of the week. We are just going to try to stay as much out of the way as possible!
