Budget Kitchen Makeover

Well, it’s week 5 and that means the challenge is over…but we added one extra week since real-life room makeovers, sometimes need one more week. So be sure to stop over next week catch one last project here for this space. This New Year Room Refresh Challenge is hosted by my lovely friend Steph from Casa Watkins. If this is your first time stopping by, then the NYNRR Challenge is a 5 week makeover that a group of bloggers take part in with sponsored brands to help make the design possible. This past weekend, we were over at my MIL’s house doing the finishing touches like hardware and accessories. This budget kitchen makeover has come a long way since the brown 1970’s cabinets. This is the second makeover I’ve done in her home since moving in this past November. You can check out her living room dining room here.

Today’s the reveal…but we do have two more projects that we are going to be finishing up to share next week. For now…here’s where we are at and before we take a look at the reveal…let’s take one more look at the before Kitchen.

and the steps to get to where we are today…

Week 1: The design plans

Week 2: How Prep Kitchen Cabinets to Paint

Week 3: How to Paint Kitchen Cabinets

Week 4: Macrame Plant Hanger

 

What we accomplished: 

Painting the Cabinets, New Hardware, Accent Rug, New Accessories, Bar Stools for seating.

What’s left:

  1. Wow. It looks like a different house. What a huge difference. It looks so much brighter and cheerier. Great job.

  2. Almost unrecognisable! Replacement kitchens are becoming more and more expensive all of the time, but this shows that with careful research and by applying thought and creativity, a kitchen really can be revitalized on a small budget. Well done Deb!

    1. Thank you so much Tom! Yes, it is so treu…and I think there is always a way to make what you have better without spending a lot.

  3. SO beautiful, Deb!! I love the pulls you picked out! The stools and rug are lovely, too! I know first-hand how nice and refreshing it is to have a white kitchen after unattractive wood tone. Love it and it looks like your MIL does, too!

  4. Wow!
    Amazing kitchen makeover admin!
    For $60p it isn’t that horrible considering what it looked like before, my kitchen looks quite similar minus the 70s tiles, all ugly laminate cabinets, and counter! I wouldn’t mind doing this to my kitchen to spruce it up a little.

    1. Thank you Jewel! Well the hardest part is painting the cabinets..it’s not hard more so time consuming. : )

  5. Wow, Deb! It’s gorgeous! I need to show this to my aunt, who wants to do something different in her own kitchen. I think she’d love it too, knowing that just a few changes can make such a huge difference.
