It's just paint

I've got some great new stuff to post about... only no photos... yet.  In the meantime, let me share the most amazing budget kitchen reno I've ever seen.  I saw this one a while back, and it gets me every time.  Here's the before...


Instead of doing a major overhaul these people used a little paint, a new tile backsplash, new countertops, and some awesome accessories to get this...





Amazing.  I love it when people can re-use and re-purpose what they've got instead of doing a complete (and expensive) gut job.  You can read more about it (and see more pictures!) here...

    I love it!
    I really like how they raised the cabinets and added the lower shelving - that space between the top of the cabinets and the ceiling seems better utilized this way!

    LOVE THIS!! We re-did our townhouse kitchen a few years ago, on a budget. It helped that I was working for a kitchen company at the time and we were able to re-use our original cabinetry (just got it re-stained) and the fact that I had previously worked for Ben Moore (and got the paint SUPER cheap) :) Less than $900 later and it was like new. So I totally LOVE stuff like this.
    GORGEOUS.
