I love how you opened up the space. You can't truly appreciate it until you see the before picture.

I love your style. Great job!

I added a before picture. I also don't have stainless appliances yet because I had 4 kids in 5 years and there's always fingerprints all over stainless. Maybe some day with the babies grow up... :

I love your space. Do you have any before pictures you can share?

I have 8 lower cabinets that house all of my pots and pans and plastic dishes for the kids. Otherwise, the glass mason jar cups and white dishes just to the left of the fridge are used every day by us. There's no reason why your every day dishes can't be pretty as well as functional right???

It looks gorgeous. And I was wondering about lack of cabinet space, but it looks like you have a deep and tall pantry there too. 5 stars! Oh, PS - SS appliances would look amazing in this kitchen, repeating the silver in the stools and elsewhere. But it's still a 5 star space.

I love the look. You definitely have the knack! And this is the first time EVER that I have appreciated word art. But a question - where have you hidden your dishes and glassware - the everyday stuff?

Love your new kitchen - especially the beadboard, pops of red, and open shelving. Great choices - enjoy!
