But, it's just enough wall space to make a nice impact. I took the color that I painted the little nook near the pantry (featured here) - Benjamin Moore's Mountain Laurel. I love this color, and it's a great contrast to the freshly painted cabinets.
As a refresher, here is the before:
I love this rug in the hallway, but I'm going to have to get a new one to go with the new color palette.
And finally, here is the Evolution of the Kitchen - beginning with a photo of the kitchen before we moved in (one year ago), to where we are today.
Have a wonderful weekend!

This looks amazing. I am thinking about doing the same thing to my kitchen cabinets. Can you please share how you did this and the products that you used? I am nervous to start this DIY by myself as many people have said that I could really ruin my cabinets but you made it look like I could do it!
ReplyDeleteThanks!
Oh, that wall color is awesome! And I just love that you painted the island black. Great kitchen upgrades!

This transformation is GORGEOUS!! You just may have given me the courage I needed to paint my cabinets! It wouldn't be so hard for me to paint my cabinets if they were old, but they still look very nice. It's hard for me to take that risk! But yours were gorgeous before and they are even more gorgeous now! I just posted my kitchen makeover from 2011 and plan to do more to it in 2012. Happy New Year!! :)
ReplyDeleteJenny, I have been meaning to do this for sometime but your transformation is beautiful! I love Mountain Laurel and the new white cabinets. As always, it looks amazing. Would you mind if I featured it sometime? Love it - thanks for the inspiration.
ReplyDeleteI have been wanting to do a job like this for 5+ years. After seeing what
ReplyDeleteyou have done, I may just jump in and do it. It scares me a little but you did such a great job and Had such great pointers that it sounds almost do-able. Thanks
Wow! Amazing! Beautiful! I wish I could pain like that! Thanks for the inspiration and I hope to be brave someday!
