Kitchen tour


About 2 years ago we finished our kitchen remodel.  I finally got around to styling it and taking some photos this weekend. 

Let's start with what you see when you walk in the back door.  This area is where we drop our bags, shoes and such.  The bench is a curbside find in my neighborhood.  I fixed it up and now it is a functional piece of furniture.

  

We had this shelf custom made and the hooks are from Hobby Lobby.



The cabinets are painted battenburg, walls are storm cloud grey,
 by Benjamin Moore.







 We worked very hard and on a ridiculously tight budget to create a kitchen we love.  Every thing together cost a little over $2,000.

Here is the before.
 Let's see a side by side comparison, shall we?









We had the bamboo flooring installed, but everything else was DIY.  You can find The glass cabinet tutorial here.

I painted our counter top (twice!) with Giani Granite Paint.  I will share more about that in another post this week.

I hope you all are having a great weekend!

  9. Looks beautiful! And I love that it was done on such a tiny budget - it can be done! Maybe this will help inspire me to finally get on our own kitchen redo.

  16. Love this so much! May I ask how you painted your cabinets? We have oak cabinets that I would LOVE to paint white, but the cabinet guy told us that to paint oak is really hard and would coat us about $5k to do it. Just wondering how you were able to do it so cheaply.
