Wow. the smallness of this kitchen never ceases to amaze. Good worker, jeff.
this is the new window drywalled and mudded.
I like the new window but it has a very big design flaw that I have illustrated in the picture below. First of all, it is too small. I should have made it huge! You can't see the window at all from the living room. A refrigerator just doesn't fit anywhere in this kitchen. Believe me, I exhausted every other possibility for the location of the fridge, and this is the ONLY way it would work. But I kind of hate it still. That stove is going away very soon so don't worry.
So I jumped on the navajo rug train and bought this off of ksl for 10 dollars. If you recall I had this big shaggy white thing that I loved the look of but it was a logistical nightmare. First, it SHED. Like big time. Like I don't even notice my dog's hair anywhere. Only the rug hair. It was disgusting. Secondly, it was WHITE and couldn't be washed. No carpet cleaning, no dry cleaning, and it gets really dirty up in here with all of the construction going on! So I thought I would buy a rug that was already dirty.
Yes. So. This was what was available in the navajo-dirty-cheap department and I don't hate it.

I'm going to refinish that coffee table by the way. Don't judge my gross living room, lest ye be judged.
Why the navajo print you ask? It seems so unlike me, I know. But I am really having an issue with the style of rugs these days. Flowers are ugly, I think we all might agree. But I also hate modern rugs with circles or blocks of brightly colored rectangles on them. And the shag, like so many things, looked good but just didn't perform. What is a floor to do?
*I keep referring to this rug as "navajo", it is probably not navajo as there are like a thousand different native american tribes around, further, it is probably not even an authentic pattern. Nevertheless it has been christened, and that is how it will be known. Holla.
