No, I’m not kidding, I am finally revealing my cottage kitchen make-over!
Since I made you wait so long I’ll get right on with it…..
Before: The Honey Oak cabinets.
Nothing wrong with these…But hardly the Cottage Kitchen I was wanting.
The kitchen is only 9×22 feet and I felt white would make it look brighter and larger.
After
After
Before…
After
I painted everything white!
The cabinets, the walls, and even the table and chairs.
My hubby, Tim replaced the hanging light and the flooring.
Before…
All photos are from our first visit to the home with the Realtor.
The only thing that hasn’t been changed is the refrigerator and the counter tops.
We replaced the fan and the stove, and applied a tin back splash.
Nothing fancy about this kitchen.
The plan was to do this on a budget and we did.
It was just over a thousand dollars-not bad I’d say!
And lastly, this is my busy corner.
I call it that because my husband says I have too much stuff tucked into this little eating corner!
I know he’s right, buttoo bad, I love it.
And deep down I think he likes it too.
Now you know this isn’t everything I have to show you, right?
There are a few additions to the walls that I want to share too that weren’t visible in these photos.
So if you will bare with me, I’ll be back in a couple of days with more pictures.
Hope you’re having a blessed Tuesday
Kimberly

Always love a white kitchen, and yours turned out lovely! We are finishing up a kitchen redo, also — will have a reveal on my blog next week. Unfortunately, ours wasn't a budget redo – we've done that so many times that it was time for a final reincarnation!! Sally
