Aug 5, 2015

(utility room)

They did not install the

peninsula correctly at first.

Fixed it.

But the pony wall is missing.

The end cabinets are supposed to be white inside.
And they didn't make doors for the center cabinet...

Cabinets over washer/dryer.

These open cabinets are also supposed to be white inside.

And the bottom of this is supposed to be a white board
flush with the bottom edge of the cabinet doors.
