Since we are getting close to finishing rooms I thought I would share a kitchen progress picture. We love our country kitchen but it really needed some help when we moved in. The kitchen didn't have much counter space, not a lot of storage, an awful back splash, and wonderful bisque appliances.
Here is a look when we first moved in...
We took of the laminate back splash and 3 layers of wallpaper underneath off, painted the walls, added a chalkboard wall, removed a cabinet, added a light fixture, and put in some open shelving.
We have now put some of our finishing touches on this kitchen. We would love to do more (mainly those appliances), but this is where we are now...
We finished the crown molding, installed the mason jar light, and added the kitchen island.
Added this sweet little kitchen cart from Ikea.
We replaced our wrought iron looking utensil holder with this hand painted beaut from Goodwill ($2).
Here is a better look at the crown and pendant light.
Once you have open shelves you may never go back. So convenient! We would love to put in some actual open stainless shelves but that is on our full kitchen redo list.
Painted our open shelving to match the cabinets, and styled them a little better.
Our kitchen is nowhere near done, but we think it is coming around. As we are getting our projects done I am starting to feel like this place is our home. It has been so fun customizing this home to our needs and taste.
