A Kitchen Renovation: Get Low.

Finally, time to feature those beautiful lower cabinets:

I’m so glad we changed our minds to the dark brown doors. You can see how the fabric and wall color pull together here. I also love how the floors are dark, but not so dark they compete with the dark cabinets.

Here’s the drawer by drawer break down. Unorganized, of course :)

Oh my goodness, it’s SO MUCH storage! And that landfill chair came in handy to install the handles on the cabinets that will be above the fridge:

It will be nice to conceal all that junk we had on top of the fridge the last 3 years.

We’ve only installed the cover panels on the bottom, but the sides of the uppers will be black soon :) After that, we’re just on standby for those counters. We’ve been using a $7 as-is desk top in the mean time, because I’m a genius.

It’s come in handy to prepare food and microwave in there finally. I can’t wait to get legit counters though. Just 2.5 more weeks!

  2. thank you! The plates are from Target, but I think they're from 2 years ago. We get all our dinnerware from there, just too much cute stuff to choose from!
