Kitchen Refresh Makeover Reveal!

I'm busy decking the halls this week, but I didn't desire to hold back whatever longer to demo you lot my kitchen makeover!

I'll only portion a few of the basics today, together with follow upward amongst a postal service together with to a greater extent than details inwards the close future.  Feel gratis to inquire whatever questions you lot mightiness accept that I don't encompass inwards this post.

Paint makes a globe of difference!  I had tired of the previous glazed finish, together with it actually clashed amongst the novel wall coloring that nosotros painted a few months ago.  I won't saccharide coat it, it likely took me a calendar month working on the cabinets off together with on together with allowing enough of fourth dimension for curing.  I'll portion to a greater extent than nigh the procedure I used soon.

Here's a large hole-and-corner I kept... I switched out the pendants!

I LOVED my huge lanterns that nosotros pose inwards final year, but I didn't intend ahead nigh using drinking glass panes take away to a higher house the stovetop.  They were ever dirty.  I ended upward only never turning them on when anyone was hither because of it.  I'm certain you lot existent designers knew that, but I never though of it beforehand.  Live together with learn.

I loved these lotus pendants the start fourth dimension I saw them.  After checking the measurements together with consulting a few trusted friends, nosotros were worried that they would hold out besides small.  But, I loved them then much I ordered them anyway to sweat them out, together with I intend they turned out only fine.  I used a ceiling medallion amongst them to assistance add together a picayune bulk.

I've been wanting to supersede our living room lite for a long time, but haven't come upward across the correct matter yet, then nosotros moved i of the lanterns inwards there.  I'm hanging on to the other for a hereafter project.

I asked your opinions, together with afterward actually planning to pigment them black, I decided to pigment the pantry doors white.  I idea they needed a picayune something, though, then I painted the moulding on them gold.  After visiting London final month, together with peculiarly touring Windsor Castle, I came habitation wanting to fancy everything upward a picayune bit!

I tried lots of dissimilar hardware options, but I settled on mixing together with matching 3 (plus around other on the island).

These pulls are on the drawers,

together with I used knobs from Hobby Lobby on the cabinets.  The top knobs are a picayune hard to come across inwards photos, but I actually loved them together with they hold back improve inwards existent life.

The knobs on the lower cabs were originally bronze, then I taped over the bling together with sprayed them metallic element brass.  I dearest how the centers almost read every bit silvery together with necktie inwards the stainless appliances, non to scream the picayune extra sparkle!

The pantry knobs were oversized cabinet knobs that I mixed amongst a backplate to brand them fifty-fifty to a greater extent than substantial, both from Hobby Lobby.

I used a brass towel claw over the kitchen sink.  During the final remodel I painted it ORB to tally the hardware, then I stripped it dorsum to the brass using this method... skillful every bit new!

Here's the progression of the kitchen since we've lived inwards this house.  The start photograph is the listing photo.  Second is our remodel nigh iv years ago.  Third is fresh together with bright!  That's almost 8 years of working together with tweaking...

I'm then excited to hold out working inwards a bright, fresh kitchen for Christmas, at that spot volition hold out enough of saccharide cookies together with cinnamon rolls spread over those counters real soon!
