Kitchen Cabinet Makeover

Here a kitchen gets an upgrade from dark cabinets with pulls that resembled something from a dungeon.  We kept the paint on the walls as the homeowners recently painted this sunny yellow.  Let's show you some before pictures.

A little paint does magic here on the cabinets and counters.  

Cotton on the upper cabinets and wainstcotting, Mason Dixon Gray on the bottom cabinets.  What a refreshing change.  The dated scalloped cornice above the window was removed and a new valance was added.

The scalloped cornice previously over the window above the sink has a second life as a shelf with hooks.  Much better, don't you think?

Left to right: Peel and stick backsplash tile from the Home Depot corrected a bumpy area on the wall from the removal of the previous microwave and hood. Even the breadbox gets a facelift.  A missing drawer gets a false bottom, then a Pier1 tray fits nicely in the opening, ready for entertaining.  The back section of cabinets on the island gets a shelf for functionality and a chalkboard created from Dixie Belle's Caviar.  Details make the difference.  A cup holder turned upside down is a perfectly handy receptacle for small hands to reach the chalk.  Countertops go faux marble with Dixie Belle paint.  Do it yourself or call LaVonne at 8149348928.
