Refreshing Your Kitchen

Refreshing Your Kitchen

Having the winter blues?? Well, I was… so why not take on a fixer-upper without spending a fortune!!  I decided to refresh my kitchen.

First, I painted (well I hired painters) to renew my old oak cabinets by using an antique finish… eggshell paint with mocha trim border.  They turned out great and made the kitchen feel twice its size!

Secondly, I purchased new hardware for the cabinets going from old gold to oil rubbed bronze with copper trim.

Then, I bought new valances keeping in the brown/beige tones.

And finally, I had a new oil rubbed bronze faucet installed (thanks to my son).

The total cost for this refresh was less than $1,500 and I am so pleased!

Here’s my before and after… I hope this has inspired someone to take a chance and make a change.  You’ll  love it!!
