No Turning Back Now!

What's done is done. The Housewarming Party evites went out and we have alot to do before the 25th! Our main objective will be making some big improvements in the kitchen, in addition to putting some final touches in the breakfast area and living room. Here's the list we are working on: 

1. Paint the cabinets white
2. Add new pulls
3. Update with stainless steel appliances (stove and refridgerator)
4. Put beadboard on the island
5. Spruce up the dishwasher until we can put in a stainless one

Our goal is to turn this:

I love the stainless steel farmer's sink (might be a little pricey, though). The countertops and backsplash are in the next phase of the project. We are thinking of tiles similar to these (not all the way up to the ceiling, though) and removing the wall cabinets and putting up shelves.

Here are some more kitchens I'm using for inspiration:






Keep your fingers crossed and hopefully I'll have some pics to show on Monday!

  1. love your inspiration pictures!! I have several in my file as well. Can't wait to see what you do. It seems we are kindred spirits....we have the same "attack & change" spirit of taking care of what we don't like!! :)
