These beautiful white kitchen cabinets needed just a little face lift to make them
ohhhh so perfect...
Notice: previous homeowner stain that won't come out...nobody wants to know what that is, let alone eat off of anything in a 2 mile radius...
A fresh coat of paint and some new stainless steel handles went from cute to fab...
HGTV says this is a cheap and easy update for your kitchen...
ummm have you seen the cost of hardware? And when you say easy...you realize this is a woman with a drill who can be very impatient and has trouble drilling holes straight?
Note to self...handles are 100 times harder to install than knobs...are they really worth it???
So much better! Now let's all try to keep our grimy hands off the beautiful white cabinets...
A towel hanger from
Ikea under the sink makes washing so much easier when the towels hanging from the stove are 10 miles away...plus little miss zebra rug deserved a little shout out ;)
Okay...so it wasn't so bad...the hardware came to about $50...an updated look that really makes the kitchen stand out...there was no blood...I think it was worth it!

Looks great! Hardware make all the difference. Did you know there is a little grid thingy you can use when installing them that makes it SO much easier? I couldn't live without mine. :)
ReplyDeleteTotally worth it. It looks great!
ReplyDeleteIt's amazing how small things make a HUGE difference! I love the face lift! Great job, Ashley!
ReplyDeleteFABULOUS!
ReplyDeleteCan you come over and do mine next week????
I'll make you a big pot of my famous potato soup and some totally delish pumpkin bread in the form of a thank you...for the cabinets AND the oh-so-sweet award! ;)
Oh Ashley, I love the hardware so much. You did a great job and things look great in your kitchen,, have to admit..love the animal print rug..very chicky.
ReplyDeleteIt looks fabulous!!!
ReplyDeleteYour cabinets look great! I've been wanting to paint mine for years. I'm just sooo not brave. YAHOO for you.
ReplyDeleteI like it.. and i LOVE the zebra rug.
ReplyDeleteI love the towel bar under the sink! Genius!
ReplyDeleteYou did a great job! Hardware makes it look more custom. Installing hardware is a pain. I made a psuedo-template...thrify decor sounds like she needs to give us the hookup.
ReplyDeleteI've never thought about a towel bar under the sink--great idea! We built our house 2 years ago and when we went shopping for cabinet knobs I almost had a heart attack--Holy crap! They are expensive!
ReplyDeleteYour cabinets really look great. My cabinets are in a desperate need of a facelift. Your's look good.
ReplyDeleteHardware does make a difference. Very nice. I love the zebra rug.
ReplyDeleteI ama little late, Congrats on your Suacy blog.
I have to say, Bravo! My husband and I (ok, my husband) redid our kitchen cabinets about 4 months ago. (ok, he completed them 4 months ago) the whole project took much longer than I expected (or wanted) so I got frustrated and gave up. So I have to praise your dedication to painting the cabinets (a much harder task than it seems) AND drilling the holes for the hardware. Your kitchen turned out AMAZING!!
ReplyDeleteLooks good!!
ReplyDeleteYou did a great job! Looking good!
ReplyDeleteI beg you. Come make my house look cool.
ReplyDeleteVery nice I love what you've done. Kathi
ReplyDeleteAhhhh...they look fabulous. What a big change something so small can make. And where oh where did you find that sassy rug? LOVE it!
ReplyDeletelove, love, love it!! You did soo good! I love IKEA! They have the best stuff ever! Great transformation! Take care.......

This post is such an inspiration to me. My kitchen needs H E L P and I'm still trying to get the courage to do something with it. I really like your countertops, are the granite or quartz?
ReplyDeleteI have tagged you for a game of 4. Please stop by my blog for the details. Thanks :-)
