I am finally getting around to showing you photos of my new kitchen!
Back in November, we got new cabinets and counter tops. I still don’t have the back splash but soon, hopefully. So ingore the junky area where the back splash will be. Cuz it ain’t purdy.
Here’s the before photos…
I had nowhere to put cookbooks, so there were 3 on the counter there by the stove and the rest were on top of the fridge. I didn’t have much counter space either.
Where the clock is on the wall is where my new bookshelf sits.
I am so in love with my new cabinets and counter tops. I love being in the kitchen, now. It’s so much brighter!
I now have a lazy susan down and to the right of the sink in that corner cabinet. All my plastic containers, pans, pots etc. are in that. So easy to access everything!
The print on the wall by the stove says, “If you have a garden and a library, you have everything you need.”
Fits me to a tee. Although, it could add “and a Diet Coke”.
Below the microwave is a compartment that pulls out which holds my garbage can. No more sitting out in sight. It didn’t fit under the sink and now it’s hidden away.
Let me show you some of my little favorites…
How about this candle topper?
I love this lil produce store…
It holds my aprons…
Thanks for stopping by!
Mandy, you must love the new look!!! The cabinets and counters are awesome!<br />Aimee
Everything is just gorgeous! What a beautiful way to welcome Spring…brightening things up and feeling more organized. AAAHHH!!
I love them! It does feel all refreshed. 🙂
I love it!!!! Definitely so much brighter and fun to be in!!! I foresee lots of recipes from you in the future because you won't be able to leave your new happy place!!!
Lovely – what a transformation! I love the cabinets. Such a great update!
Looks great! Can't wait to see the backsplash! And I love the new oven….are you going to get a new hood to match it too? I can't WAIT to live in one place forever so I can design my own kitchen just the way I want!
We must be twins separated at birth. Love my garden, library & must have, diet Coke. LOL!
Just found your blog! I love your kitchen–just gorgeous!
Beautiful! Nice job!
Really great, Mandy! Getting a kitchen just the way you want it isn't a simple task. Congratulations! I'm sure it shows us a lot about 'the woman' who uses it. Kay
OMG Twinsies! We have the same curtains (and curtain rod!) on our sliding glass door in our kitchen area!
So cute! Love it – and it is much brighter in there 🙂
Just found your blog and I am in love with all of your aprons! I am a baker and am always scouting out cuties 🙂 Your blog is so pretty and I am looking forward to more fun posts.<br /><br />Liz at Simple Nests<br />{simplenests.blogspot.com}
I definitely see the transformation! The new cabinets and counter tops really brighten the room up. Your new kitchen also looks more spacious, which is probably because of the lighter appearance of the room. How is your kitchen holding up today? I bet you’re spending a lot of your hours there, exhausting your cookbooks. Continue to have fun, Mandy!
