Today AnNicole’s is sharing her simple kitchen makeover with us.
Without changing the cabinets, counters, flooring, or anything major, she gave her kitchen a whole new look.
This should inspire anyone who doesn’t have a big budget but wants it to look like they spent big bucks.
Before:
After:
AnNicole says she used Restoration Hardware’s “Cappucino” paint on the walls.
Here’s the breakfast nook side of the room:
After:
Head to Our Suburban Cottage to see the rest of AnNicole’s kitchen.

I love that stone urn on her breakfast table, and that two-toned curtain is perfect. Thanks for finding me a new blog to stalk, Julia.

Wow that is so amazing! I love the transformation and am now headed over to see the rest of the makeover. I think my favorite part of the kitchen is that toile over the sink window – love me some toile!

Fabulous job! I love the toile window treatment over the sink, and decluttering the space above the cabinets was the best idea. Gotta love a completely new look without the expense of a major overhaul. Beautiful!

I love her blog! AnNicole has such great style. It just goes to show that you don’t need a big expensive remodel to completely change the look of a place. It helps to have beautiful style, like she does. The right decor makes all the difference.

No offense, but UGH. Brown paint is way too trendy these days and is used when it really shouldn’t be. This kitchen looked much better before!
desiree says
Great transformation. Love how the clean the lines became!

I always say paint is the easiest, fastest and sometimes cheapest makeover. And if it comes out not as expected, you can re-do it almost immediately!

I love what she did with the kitchen,love the white on white, ours is also white too. There’s something about white kitchens, they’ll never go out of style.

What great visual proof that kitchen borders SHOULD come down! For some reason, staging clients really struggle with that one. I’ll have to show them this blog. LOVE the paint color too!

Thanks for the photos. I actually liked the ‘Before’ more! I love the wood table and chairs more. The glass and iron table and chairs give a very ‘cold’ feel!
hookedonhouses says
I find it really interesting that several of you have mentioned that you like the “before” better. I just love the clean and serene look of the “after.” Goes to show everyone likes different things, I guess! And that you probably wouldn’t like MY kitchen, either. Ha. -Julia 🙂
