Kitchen renovation!


BEFORE:




AFTER:


Still to come: a beautiful new induction range and some wood shelving on the left side, above the backsplash. And maybe the shelving unit on the wall facing the cabinets should be green, but we're going to live with a while before making that decision.

    IT LOOKS SO GOOD! I love that you went with the same greyish green we have, isn't it so lovely in person?
