We are in the process of moving and this is our soon to be kitchen and I have no idea what to do decor/paint wise. The appliances are staying, and I've thought about painting the cabinets, but am not entirely sure if I want to start that project! I like light and airy colors and neutrals and the shabby chic style/ Pottery Barn look.

aaahhhh, I was SO SO happy with how this backsplash turned out! I really contemplated how to do it and had a hard time finding something I thought would look good. The granite is a little wild so I wanted something that would blend nicely. I used the same 2" tiles I used at my daughters house (see backsplash #1 but turned them on a diagonal. WOW what a difference! Plus this was very inexpensive tile. Only $2.97 for a 12x12 in sheet! Used the "Simple mat tile adhesive" again. Love this stuff.

After upgrading the countertops with granite we tiled the backsplash. Used a new product called Simpel Mat-tile setting mat. WOW, this product worked great and made the job so much less messy than regular tile mud.

Had a BORING bar. Thought that it would look nice painted black but just couldn't get excited about painting the sheetrocked front. TA-DA! Found bead board wallpaper at Lowes and it was a miracle! Super easy and what a change

cookie cutter track home got a major overhaul from floor to ceiling. Kitchen is on the small side and the short cabinets made the room feel even smaller. original yellow oak cabinets ,white tile countertops and recessed fluorescent lights from early 2000. Lacked personality and style and very ugly to say the least.
Did my research and laid out a budget before taking the plunge though in the end we nearly doubled the amount spent. project took two months from start(demo to finish.
