Mini Kitchen Remodel

Who follows pinterest?

Well, that is where part of our kitchen remodel idea came from. I can't take all the credit;)

I always thought our kitchen cabinets and the ceiling had a huge gap between them. I love our nine inch ceilings but always wished our cabinets were made taller. I came across another kitchen remodel where they added an extra 9 inches of wood on top of the top cabinets. It made a difference and didn't cost as much as othere projects! I thought about it for a long time and decided I wanted to go for it! Hubby was on board and after months of dealing with a cabinet shop that frustrated me and made me want to just forget about it we finally got it done!

We also added bead boarding around the island because I always thought it needed a little extra than the plain wood and added on a little bar. The bar is my favorite part and I just LOVE the wood top!!! And, a new coat of paint can make a worlds diffence. LOVE this color! It is from Sherwin Williams and is called Silvermist.  

Here are some before and after pictures!!

Love this tile with our countertop. Now I want to take down the plain white tile backsplash we had and add this. There is always something, right?! lol

Before

In the next couple weeks I will have pictures of the NURSERY!!! I have part of it done but I still want to add a few more things! It doesn't seem real that we are actually getting a nursery ready because we have wanted and dreamed for this for so long and now we are actually getting one ready!! Makes me so happy!
