The Finished Kitchen

The kitchen is finally done (it has been for a couple of weeks, but we have been on vacation and so busy I am finally getting around to posting pictures). I am so happy with how it turned out and so proud of us for doing it ourselves! We also had a really small budget (as far as kitchens go) and stuck to it. We were able to do a lot for our money. We painted the cabinets, got granite countertops, new sink and new faucet, built a 'bar' using new cabinets, put in a tile backsplash, put in pendant lights and got new appliances (we already had the fridge). I never imagined it would be such a big project. If anyone is thinking of doing their kitchen, I have lots of tips and things that I learned that can help you, so talk to me first!! I don't think the pictures even do it justice (the cabinets don't look that different in the pictures, but they really is a huge difference). It looks amazing!

Here is the before:
