kitchen before

This is our kitchen"before." We don't actually have any real before pictures because we had to demo it while I was in the hospital post c-section. The goal was to gain space to the right of the oven, and to do this we had to remove the furnace and old chimney which are hidden in the closet behind the chalkboard door. Originally there was no dishwasher, and the fridge and oven were on the dining side of the kitchen.
The fridge and oven were where the mirror is. It was really awkward, not to mention there was no counter at all on that wall, just appliances.
