More random home improvements

Okay, so the kitchen is now almost half done as far as painting and lighting goes. We painted most of the ceiling and the window wall this weekend and installed the new lights. We love the new lights! We bought matching lights for over the sink and the table. The one over the table is a bigger version of the one over the sink (I just don't have a picture of it yet). They were a bit of a pain to put up, but Mr. Perfect was more than brilliant at getting it to work. He had to cut up some sheetrock to shove between the box and the new light brace to get it to work, but he was more than up for the challenge. What a man I have!

Mr. Perfect contemplating the light over the sink (but you can see a lot of the window wall behind him, plus the hole where the ceiling fan over the table used to be)

All lit up!


Also, we found that the seal between the bathtub and the shower doors was leaking, so we pulled them off, cleaned up the tub (it was a little disgusting), and put up a new rod and shower curtain. It makes the bathroom feel bigger, but Mr. Perfect says it will take him a while to not be claustrophobic with how the shower curtain tends to cling.

Very cool. Doesn't doing those home improvement projects just make you feel GREAT? I always love those. Fun stuff!
