Kitchen Progress | Part 1

We're in the process of updating the kitchen! Here's what we've accomplished so far:

Before & After

Inspirations

Kitchen before

Close-up of that beautiful border

Removed the wallpaper border and started testing paint swatches

Choosing a blue and trying out hardware

Painted the walls light grey

Ready to take down that top right cabinet

Feels so much more open!

Cut and stained shelves

Painted the shelf brackets

Open shelving makes an amazing difference | Before and after

She would rather sleep on sandpaper than obey your request to stay off the counter.

Added modern drawer pulls

Much better with handles

So much sanding

Did you know kitchens have approximately 1 million surfaces?

Ready to paint!

Paint sprayer was a life saver

Aftermath... Everything is changing!

Spray paint that hardware!

Prime everything

Pantry progress

Cabinets back on

Accessories added

Secret sponge storage!

I love features | Bar, pantry, pan storage and bulletin area

I love how the cheerful blue seems to change throughout the day, depending on the lighting

Cabinet color: Tres Blue  |  Wall color: Icy Avalance
