Kellie Cashon, the talented designer behind Cashon & Co. Interiors, has given her home on the Gulf Coast a makeover from head to toe. Take this family room off the kitchen, for starters. That’s how it looked before (above). And here’s how it looked after Kellie transformed it:
Before (looking from the family room into the kitchen):
After (what a big difference the hardwood floors make!):
A closer look at the kitchen:
She took this corner of the family room, which wasn’t doing a whole lot:
And turned it into this lovely little nook:
You can see the rest of this Gulf House makeover and many more examples of her work on her website. Big thanks to Kellie for letting me share this with you!

P.S. If you love looking at house plans as much as I do, then check out The Plan Collection. Their website is so much fun, you can easily lose an hour or two there. I know I have! I’m excited to have them as my newest sponsor.
Great update, I love blue atm, those styles are timeless to me! But then again, I do love more contemporary styles too..

Huge difference the hardwood floors make.
It looks much softer and warmer to me. I really like the little nook she created!

This house is beautiful! Thanks for sharing it!
Gorgeous! I’m in love with all the breakfast bench nooks I’m seeing lately. I want one. Taking that corner and turning it into a cozy eating area with eye appeal was genius. Thanks for sharing this.
My fav part is the nook! Love it.
White slip covers cure all design disasters!

Well, it’s a lovely home either way.
That said, I HATE stainless steel appliances and much prefer the tile floor to the hardwood (in this particular space). But, both the before and after look nice to me.
I am absolutely, positively, in love with the “after”. I’m going to be bookmarking this post for future reference when I begin my next remodeling project.
I’m in love! It’s gorgeous!

This is great! My parents are actually redoing their house on the Gulf in the exact same fashion – blue walls, white furniture, dark hardwood floors, white cabinets. It’s all the same, except I think their granite is a bit darker.
I love what Kellie did here!
Wow what a great transformation! The wood floors look fantastic!

Great makeover
The soft blue & cream colour scheme is so pretty and serene.
It’s amazing what a difference painting cabinets can make. I can’t wait to get ours painted!!

I think I can actually hear this house sighing with relief! I had a scary moment where I got mixed up and thought the “before” photo was actually the “after”…and then I DEFINITELY sighed with relief when I realized my mistake. She did a great job. I would love to live in that space.

I’m over from Southern Hospitality and this makeover is speaking my language. I LOVE blues & whites…I’m at a loss. I saved the pictures, so I can reference them later. Thanks!

I was very disappointed to see that this makeover had made the list. The only things the new owner actually did was add new flooring and better furnishings. Architecturally, the house was already beautiful…anyone could have done this.
Usually I see makeovers here that really make me appreciate the new homeowner’s personality and eye towards detail…but this was very unoriginal, and to be honest it feels sterile and boring.
Really? Are we looking at the same house? I loved what the designer did with it. Sorry you’re not a fan! -Julia
OMG – this is gorgeous! I have been looking for inspiration photos to paint my kitchen from bright green to soft blue and this is making me want to log out and run to the paint shoppe! LOVE IT – thank you so much for sharing! I can get a big glass of lemonade and sit on your blog for hours. I will probably use your pictures and I will link back to you to spread the magic.
As someone who loves nothing more than sitting with a big glass of lemonade when I have time to relax and read, I take that as a huge compliment. Thanks, Tracy!
