![]() The house is so much brighter and the look is so much cleaner than before. Having both the kitchen and dining room FINALLY done feels like such a huge weight off of my shoulders. Since my dining room and kitchen are all one big room, I carried it over into there as well. Plus, (shameless plug) aren’t these kitchen towels adorable?! The entire kitchen looks so much cleaner and brighter now with the white and the contrast of the dark granite and hardware. In the end, my husband actually won the argument and I love the contrast against the white tile. The window sill was a bit of a debate between my husband and I on whether to paint it white or stain it. Especially when it’s filled with lemons, or pumpkins for fall. I bought it at an online auction a while back and the pop of red looks great against the white tile. Mostly because I never really knew where to put it. This vintage scale used to sit on top of the cabinets. We aren’t clawing at the drawers anymore and sticky little fingers aren’t leaving prints all over the place.Īnd, since this is the big reveal of the kitchen, here’s a look at what the rest of it looks like! Having never had any sort of hardware in our kitchen before, this was a huge update for us. It’s the perfect amount of refinement, but still has a little bit of a rustic/industrial look to it, which is exactly what I wanted. The dark color of the hardware against the white cabinets looks amazing. The drawers take a little bit longer, but only because I had measure each one to find center. I set the jig up for the door handles and quickly got all of them installed. And we have A LOT of cabinet doors and drawers. I used my Kreg cabinet hardware jig, which helped me to get all of the hardware installed in about an hour. I loved the color and finish, and I knew it would look perfect in our modern farmhouse kitchen. The hardware we chose is the Liberty Classic Square cabinet pulls and cup pulls in soft iron. After a few months I got back at it and painted the cabinets, installed a tile backsplash and then painted the walls. Once we got the repairs made, we took a step back for a bit on the remodeling to regroup. Honestly, as much as it was awful to have to discover that and go through the headache of repairs, had I not decided to remodel the kitchen, who knows how long it would have taken for us to discover the leak. ![]() We found a ton of water damage within the walls, which resulted in a giant hole in our kitchen wall, cabinets destroyed, and just a huge mess. Apparently there was a roof leak we were unaware of. Unfortunately for us, the second we began the remodel, things came to a crashing halt. It just wasn’t making me feel happy whenever I was in it, so I knew a change had to happen. ![]() They seemed to just absorb all of the light and made the kitchen feel really closed in. The cabinets are knotty alder and, while they were in great shape, we just weren’t digging the color anymore. Here is what our kitchen looked like before we got started with things. Like, why did I ever decide to remodel the kitchen type of wrong. If you remember, my plan was to remodel the kitchen back in the spring, but things went horribly wrong. It’s been a long haul to get to this point. Hey there, friends! Today is the big reveal day! I’m partnering with The Home Depot today to share the hardware I chose to finish off our Modern Farmhouse Kitchen Makeover and how to install it.
