I have picked a range hood style, probably the most difficult decision that kept me from progressing. Mainly because I wanted a cove or mantle above and therefore needed to extend the width of the room. Oh yes! Another 3 inches added to the right side of the house!

The room has become massive, but I keep telling myself that there will be more options for the scene and photographing different angles. ;) The cabinets fill 16" x 17" of space and this excludes the fridge and breakfast nook!
Adding the trim:

I'm using a combination of 1/16 and 3/32 basswood which is nice and easy to work with and means that the hanging cabinets are light.
While building I found the best way to visualize the space and the style was to add some accessories and blur the background. Kind of like squinting and pretending its already there ;) I do love these new candles by Handley House I got from the Little Dollhouse Company, I'm so excited to decorate.

My next post will have some pictures of the finished mantle and hopefully the oven wall complete. Until then...
Very nice! I love the cabinets.
