Sherri's Kitchen

 Feb 26, 2010

Sherri was determined to make a comfortable home for her kids after unexpectedly finding herself single and on her own in a new community. She purchased this three bedroom fixer-upper, and eventually, with "a little time, a lot of help from wonderful people, and not a lot of money!" she transformed it into a beautiful space for family and friends. 

 Here is how her kitchen started out: note the dashing - or should I say "clashing" - plaid wallpaper, orange paint, faux wood Formica and sickly yellow backsplash. Quite a contrast to the finished product. It is so much more inviting! Thanks Sherri!

You might think I am crazy, but I think the before kitchen had some cute charm to them. But the afters are amazing!

She did an amazing job. Does she blog? I can totally relate to her situation as I found myself in the very same one just a few months ago.
