Kitchen {Before & After}

The kitchen! I don't know about you guys, but for some reason, I love Before and After pictures... so for those of you with the same sickness, here you go : )

Before


 

{We painted the kitchen green from a yellow color... which now, I'm getting the urge to change again so we'll see how that plays out}


{There were no appliances so we added a stainless steel fridge, gas stove and dishwasher. At a later point we did install a microwave above the stove.}


{The opposite side of the kitchen with the dining area. One day I'll convince Steven to extend the kitchen for an ACTUAL dining area : ). }


{The horrible countertops and sink we pulled out of the kitchen. Not sure what these people were thinking or if there was a clearance on maroon, but they had this in the kitchen and bathrooms. No way these good stay! lol}

After

So far we've replaced the countertops, put in new appliances, painted, installed a new cast iron sink and put up doors on the laundry room on the opposite side of the kitchn.

 
Still want to do... install chandelier lighting over the kitchen table and track lighting in place of the recessed lights. Put in a backsplash over the countertops. I'd also like to either replace the cabinets or stain them a cherry color then add knobs and handles. Another goal is to install cabinet molding on top of the cabinets and under cabinet lighting. Man that's a lot!! But we'll get it done eventually : )


{With the new countertops installed. Here's the new sink and faucet}


{Ignore the mess : )... but here's an update so far. I've rearranged a few things with the fall decorations down so I'll post a better pic when I take one. This was just a quicky one.}


More to come!! Feel free to leave a comment and let me know what you think or if you have any creative ideas!
