Kitchen Renovation: Removing the fluorescent lighting frame
Today, I removed the wood frame on the ceiling that the fluorescent lighting diffuser panels were resting in.
First, I removed the diffuser panels then pounded the frame from above, a little at a time at each nail connection. Soon enough it came down in one piece. There are still a few nails in the ceiling but they will come out eventually.
It already feel so much bigger and better in this kitchen. I know good things are coming!!!
We are going to have to move the existing junction box.
These unexpected surprises are the reason we planned 20% extra in our budget :)

I would love to raise the ceiling and redesign the cabinets (corners, blind spots, and lazy Susan's...Oh My) but that is not going to happen.
