Café au lait kitchen

Would this really be my blog if I didn't feature at least one home revamp per week?  Nah.  So, here goes...our kitchen when we moved in a few years ago:

Before:

In progress:

Don't worry, I revamped the table & chairs too!


After:

{Crisp white paint & Toasted Almond Valspar paint on the lower bead board- it's a beautiful cafe au lait color}
{We rearrange from time to time. I revamped this 'island' with several coats of white paint and new glass & modern brushed nickle drawer pulls that match our cupboards}


{Painting the cupboards white was so worth it and made all the difference! Now it's about time to upgrade our microwave, don't you think?!  Overlook that and notice the chandelier style ceiling mounted light fixture }


Just a quick tour..we've since added a natural colored herringbone area rug under the table and swapped the 'island' and table to give us a bit more space to cook along the counter top.

As always, Alicia

  1. What a great makeover! Paint made such a huge difference with your cabinets. My favorite part of the room is your dresser/island! It is gorgeous, and perfect for the space:)
