Kitchen / Dining Room


Here's our kitchen. (View from the family room). Our flooring is from Costco.


The light above our dining room table was our splurge. It was on sale, but still quite expensive. In my opinion, it's worth every penny. It looks better in person. If you haven't seen it, you should really come over some time. You're all invited.



Eventually we would like to put a buffet table with a nice picture hanging above it, on the blue wall behind our kitchen table. The door in the picture above leads to my office. Adjacent from the office is our garage door. We'd like build in a bench and some coat hangers in the empty space between the two doors.


Our kitchen Island is painted grey. These weren't the pendant lights I had origionally imagined above our island, but when I saw them, I couldn't resist them.


Our counter-tops are Quartz and have tiny copper speckles in them.


View from our dining into our family room. Notice the picture on our far wall that Ella put up. I think she's more excited about decorating this house than I am. With the help of Tyler's parents, we re-painted & stained our dining room table to match our new house better.


Tyler's brother brought our cabinets up from St. George and helped Tyler install them.
We want to put a grey colored glass subway tile back-splash up between the cupboards and countertop.


We have a fantastic view out both our front and back windows. If you want to see it, and or the outside of our home, email me. I feel nervous about posting those type of pictures online.


Since we built our house ourselves, and it wasn't much more, cost wise. We decided to do the taller 8 foot doors throughout the house. We were sad when we found out that the door style we wanted didn't come in 8 foot. Luckily they came out with this new style of door that we happen to like just in time for us to install them.

I'm loving the home tour. Post a floor plan so we can see how the house flows. I love the blue color in the kitchen. Makes me want to go and paint right now.

I really really really really like your house. I'm kinda drooling all over my keyboard right now.
I think that that Costco flooring is about the best thing ever. My sister has it, my mom has it and I talked my neighbor into installing it in her house because I loved it so much. Good call.
