Sadie got a bit too curious about what I was painting

Remember the horrible old counter tops

The new counter tops and new sink too!

The old kitchen with nasty ceiling lights and ugly laminate counters and cabinets

Oak cabinets, new lights (we're painting the ceiling tray another color next week), the microwave is now above the range and we have new counter tops and tile on the floor. We still need to tile the back splash

From the other corner of the tiny kitchen

The new counter tops are much wider so the kitchen feels bigger. The industrial gray tile is gone from the floor and I love having a lazy susan in the corner for pots and pans.

Not bad for a budget remodel. I didn't like the oak cabinets at first but I think they look really good next to the black appliances and compliment the tile and granite. We could have spent so much more but for this little house, its perfect!
Its been a rough two weeks but we've made it through! We'll do the back splash before the end of the month and it will finally be DONE! I'll post bathroom photos over the weekend if I have time. It looks really nice too!

ReplyDeleteand you totally reminded me as Id forgotten how hard the remodel was on our BULLMASTIFF.
hang in there---
Miz.
LOL.. I can't tell you how many kitty paw prints I had in my old condo. Nora had blue and green paint all over her ears while I was painting her room (oh god.. Did I just admit that again?)
ReplyDeleteBEAUTIFUL!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a difference. It's gorgeous ;)
ReplyDeleteLOL @ Silly Sadie!
ReplyDeleteYour kitchen looks amazing - I almost can't believe it's the same space! You did a great job on picking out cabinets & countertops. Well done!!
WOW! Your kitchen looks AMAZING! congrats!
ReplyDeleteIt looks fabulous! All the hard work is so worth it when you see the results, eh?
ReplyDeleteI bet making meals here is more enjoyable, too.
My kitchen is close to your before...I hope I can remodel soon.
Enjoy your Holiday!
That looks so pretty! It's all magazine-style classy. And your dog is a cutie:)
ReplyDeleteGREAT job!! And just because I haven't told you lately, thanks again for all the work you do on HYC!
ReplyDeleteWow what a difference! It looks very nice! Gotta love the curious furbabies~ too funny!
ReplyDeleteI'm a latecomer to your blog but I'm really enjoying it. Had to say that when I was in college we were priming canvases and left them on the floor with the door open - oops! My cat began meowing and when we checked on her there were cat paw prints all over the newly primed canvases and a sorry looking cat with white feet. She hated being washed but she hated the gesso even more. Your kitchen lloks fabulous. I agree about the oak with the black appliances.
ReplyDeleteI love the new look of your kitchen. But then again thanks to Hurricane Katrina I redid my kitchen the same exact way!
ReplyDeleteI love my black appliances too. In the past I have had olive green, brown and even 70's gold...LOL!!
I also got the oak cabinets too and I love the look together.
Ya'll did a great job!!
Looks great chica! I love it!
