Kelli’s Kitchen Makeover Reveal!

Eight months ago I wrote a post sharing my client/friend’s kitchen.  In that post I discussed some of the plans we had to give it a makeover on a budget!  A few months ago I gave you an update on it’s progress (you can see HERE)!

And today I get to show you the After and I’m just a little bit excited!!!!!!

As a reminder (or if you are new here) I’ve included some of the Before pictures.

 

BEFORE

 

 

The goals were a “white kitchen” with color (hence the wall color which is Sherwin Williams Watery), more up-to-date features, and a light and airy feeling while still balancing masculine and feminine elements.

What do you think?

 

AFTER

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Looks like a different kitchen, right?

I helped with the design decisions, cutting the tiles for the backsplash, and painting the table but other than that Kelli did the rest of the work and I couldn’t be more proud of her!!

She had a lot of firsts with this makeover:  First room makeover, first time using a miter saw, first time painting cabinets, first time doing crown molding,  first time installing cabinet hardware, first time laying flooring, first time installing a backsplash, first time painting furniture (the chairs),etc.

She did all of these things over an 8 month period (after her 3 little ones went to bed at night) and little by little she reached her goal.  Now she has this beautiful kitchen to enjoy for many years to come!

A DIY kitchen makeover is not for the faint of heart but I can tell you from experience that it is so worth it!!

The average cost of a kitchen makeover is $21,826.  Kelli’s kitchen makeover came to $3,000 (with the highest cost being the granite for $1500 and the flooring for $500).

Below are links to the sources and tutorials used in making over this kitchen!

Painted using the exact colors and method described in THIS tutorial.  Two coats of polyurethane were applied afterwards to protect it which also gives it a warmer color than in my other projects where I didn’t use a polyurethane afterwards.

I picked out this ceiling fan for down the road when they are ready to replace it.

    I couldn’t have done it without your advice, encouragement, help, and vision. I am more than ecstatic about how it looks now, especially when you compare it to the before pictures. Thanks for holding my hand through the entire process.
