Kitchen - Before and After

Our kitchen is now 99% done and it looks amazing!   It is so much brighter and has the farmhouse look we were going for.   I can't believe we waited so long to make the updates.   In total we re-did the entire kitchen for about $250 (paint, tile and a new range hood).  The cabinet color is Ashes by Behr and the grout is Delorean Gray (I pretty much picked it out because it was called "Delorean").  I love the new kitchen so much and can't wait to start cooking in there more.

Before:  You can see the old wood molding around the cabinets as well as the lovely blue backsplash.  What makes the old backsplash even better was it was black tiles that were painted blue with painted on "grout" lines, ugh!  You can see we also briefly thought of a tin panel backsplash a few years ago and never took it down.  Yup, so this is what we lived with for the last four years!

 After:




We just have a few minor touch ups left to do.  We need to re-paint the window frame and add a new piece of molding underneath it.   My husband also wants to make a mason jar light fixture for the center of the kitchen ceiling and we want to find a new rug.
