A comparison of my kitchen when I first purchased my house and now:
Old Kitchen...
New kitchen!
Here is a list of the major changes I've made... if you're intesested:
- New counter tops
- New ceramic backsplash
- New sink
- New plumbing (not visible!)
- New microwave (was already replaced in the top picture)
- New plugin outlets and switches
- Replaced flourescent lightbox with recessed lighting
- Added under-the-cabinet counter-top lights
- Replaced all cabinet handles
- Refinished all of the woodwork
- Added spotlights in the corners of the dining area
- New pendant lamps over kitchen table
- New Paint (obviously)
- Built dishwasher into countertop
The amount of time, effort, and money? Um, yea... doesn't matter because it was totally worth it!
