My Kitchen - redecorated

[kimlovescats]

A couple of people commented on my kitchen in some pictures in Cat General, so I said I would post my "new" kitchen. Hubby and I painted the cabinets and walls and he put up beadboard and chair railing. I'm so proud of him!

That looks great Kim! Very beautiful! Everything looks so clean and crisp yet there is warmth to it. Nice!

I'm so envious of pretty kitchens. Ours is a 70s nightmare. We've update just about everything else in this house so it's time to bring the that room into the present and out of the outdated past.

Thank you all!

Lori, you've done such a great job with the rest of your house, I know your kitchen will be fantastic too! Can't wait to see it! Be sure to take "before" shots too!

I thought the before pic was the after pic at first too!!!

I love them both.

Can I hire your husband, or whomever redid your kitchen?? Mine is white white white, and was since I moved in 3 years ago. There are some red accessories, but other than that, it's all white. I wouldn't mind the white, but the cabinets are all IKEA cheapos... IKEA does have some really nice cabinets, but these are NOT them!

PS... the pic is from moving in day 3yrs ago... so, some appliances have changed.

I love the wall color!! That is so funny, we just recently painted our cabinets...we did an ivory cream color, though. We also nailed crown molding on the top of the cabinets (and painted it)...and we cut pieces of wainscotting and nailed them to the ends of the cabinets that are facing the table...adds a nice custom look to the cabinets, with the texture of the wood that wainscotting gives.

Our next step is the wainscotting on the walls...just like how you have, but we'll do a creamy ivory color with the chair rail too..and the color we chose for the top half of the walls...just like yours, a rich wine color!!! I like your taste I'll have to take pics when we are done too!!
