My Kitchen Remodel: Before & After


For two years, I have manged and edited BeautyGirl and never have had a personal blog of my own. Before BeautyGirl was hacked into, I thought I'd start this blog. Now that you readers are redirected to this site, you'll get to know me a little bit better. I hope you don't mind! By the way, if you're a fellow blogger on blogspot, be sure to follow me. I'd love to get to know you better, too.

I thought I'd share a home project: My Kitchen Remodel

It still needs a little tweaking, but for the most part we are proud of the finished product. Everything was installed by ourselves except for the back splash and hardwoods.

Before

Notice the beautiful, country scalloping above the sink.












The right side was not utilized to its maximum potential.
Here is where the stove once was, and the previous owners put their refrigerator in the pantry. Weird!
After

The entire kitchen was gutted and added were Ikea cabinets and fixtures as well as silestone counter tops.

Where there were no cabinets before, we added cabinetry around a refrigerator and a cute, little coffee station.
Hardwoods were installed to match the flooring throughout the house. Still to come is a stainless steel back splash above the oven.



There are a few minor things to do still, but isn't there always? Stay tuned for my thrift store finds and the new kitchen chairs I purchased for my farm table at only $6 each.
