Kitchen

“I was drawn to a simple, classic, and subtle nautical look,” the homeowner says.

The project included several DIY “firsts” for the homeowners.

Plus, there’s cool new texture and hardware.

The DIYer’s grandpa built the kitchen cabinets.

"I had been getting really inspired by rich burgundy tones in homes," the DIYer says.

“We didn’t want to pour money into a rental, so it had to be budget-friendly,” the DIYer says.

For $1,700!

“I cannot believe how we were prepping meals before the renovation,” the homeowner says.

Goodbye, brown cabinets.

It made me totally rethink white cabinetry.

The DIYer didn’t like the brown cabinets at first.

They look so much better after the makeover.

Function came first, but style wasn’t forgotten.

The pop of pink paint is a must-see.

The new look makes it feel bigger, too.

A disco ball in the kitchen? Sounds like a party!

It only took about a month!

The cabinets! The natural light! The island!

The “after” is so charming.

The original kitchen felt “dark and very boxed in.”
