Our new kitchen window - no more bathroom glass
Say hello to my little
And the full view here. As you can see, our new hedge looks great and in time it will be tall enough to create a full green wall in front of the window.
This is the view of the hedge from outside our side yard.
We got the new window from Windor. Initially we just wanted to switch out the glass, but that is the same price or more expensive than changing out the frame as well. Window also delivered our windows for our living room remodel and our bathroom remodel as well.
Here is the new window. Cue angle music. We opted to get a picture window because in the 4 years we have owned this house we have only opened the kitchen window once and that was to see if it could be opened. Also, with just a picture window, there is no beam down the middle of the window to obstruct the view. It was also much less expensive.
The old window is removed bit by bit.
And here the new window goes in.
This is the one arm holding technique...
Foam insulation is sprayed around the opening.
And all the trim and caulk is added to make everything look nice and finished.
The crew finished the whole thing in a couple of hours or 3. It was pretty quick.
Let's take another quick look at the before again:
And after:
When I add back in the curtain at the top and the hedge grows another foot, it's going to look so much better. Can't wait for that!
This was the last piece of the puzzle for the kitchen. We can officially call the kitchen d.o.n.e....
Here is how our kitchen started out:
