Oh the Kitchen...

Our kitchen before. Maroon and purple! I never would have thought to put those two colors together...how....creative? The stenciling was so pretty too, and i don't know if you can tell from the picture, but lavender ceilings! (I'm really hoping you're catching my sarcasm here...)
This kitchen remodel is a 3 step process. This is a picture of what I've done to the kitchen to get me through until we can really rip it out this summer.
I can't wait to do our new floor and counter tops, etc this summer!

Dang you're good! Do you hire out? I sort of miss the stencils, though.

Those stencils were amazing! Maybe you can revive them?! :-)

You guys are so talented and daring. I could never fix things up and have it look good like you and Jared do. Thanks for taking a picture of your picture frame wall. I forgot to take a picture while I was there and I want to copy some of your inspiration.

I can't believe it really was as bad as you said! Looks great now though.

You are a stinking genius. Seriously. You're interior design skills are quite impressive!

Jules said...

You guys are excellent remodelers!! Next time you come to DC I may have to have you give me some pointers!

I'm never walked through a house that had stenciling on the cabinets, and yet you've managed to buy yourself TWO HOUSES with these kitchens. Is that one of your requirements that you tell the real estate agent? I'm super impressed! Your house really was a work of art, wasn't it?

Oh my gosh. That kitchen was horrific. I don't know how you could walk into that and see that potential. You are awesome!

Jenny said...

So, after you guys told me how bad the kitchen was, I had to look it up. I can't believe that's the same kitchen. You guys did such a good job on the remodel. It looks like it was always supposed to look that way. Nice job! PS, the blue cabinets were kinda fun.
