So, I wanted to share this kitchen makeover at Starter Home to Dream Home from last week’s DIY Project Parade. Again, it’s GORGEOUS! I’d give anything to have my kitchen look half this nice! Here is her post:
Kitchen Final Reveal!!! Picture Perfect
It has been a hard and long 2 months! Wow, I can’t believe it took us 2 months to get this thing finished. It is FINALLY DONE!!!!!!!!!!! I am so excited to show all of you I had to post this before my big date tonight 🙂

I can’t tell you how pleased I am with the final result. Our projects ALWAYS come out BETTER than we had planned.
Remember how I originally had picked, and purchased, Tumbled Travertine as my backsplash? Well, my gut told me it was wrong, so I returned it and traded it for Porcelain, dark and contemporary tiles. LOVE IT!!! That was the best choice I made. And I am SOOOO lucky that Oregon Tile & Marble made the exchange, THANK YOU!
The Granite goes perfectly with our whole contemporary feel. Click HERE for my post on our DIY Granite Mini Slabs
My $10 Valances above my corner sink fit right in.
I am in love with my elegant Faucet that reminds me of Swan Lake. I can’t believe I actually wanted to return it. I have fallen in love with it more everyday. I got it at Lowes for $200!!
I had so much fun Accesorizing my new kitchen:
Got ’em at Target |
No, this knife set isn’t new. I just spray painted the wood Oil Rubbed Bronze. A quick fix for it to look sleek and new.
See the “old” knife set to the right? |
I wanted to add some accessories on the top of my cabinets. Just because I can’t accesorize within 2 year old reach I had fun with this one! I still feel like I need to tweek it a little bit but I have time for that.
I added this plate for a POP of orange and to add some “Hawaii” to my life |
I had to get that green in. Love that green. |
I am just loving the look of my Kitchen Island Redo. It makes such a statement! Don’t get distracted my the kids playing on the floor…. hehe
Lets have some fun with before and afters:

What an inspiration! Honestly, I didn't think the before look was too bad – I can see why you wanted to update it, and it turned out amazing.
And "spray paint knife block" is now on my to do list…
