Dayka wanted to make over her kitchen, (uh, can you blame her?!) but as a first time DIY-er, she didn’t want to bite off more than she could chew. So she opted to keep the layout the same and instead spent her time and money updating everything else from lighting to appliances.
Now, it looks so much bigger, even though the layout of the room didn’t change. It’s like magic! Check out more on her blog Life + Style. Thanks Dayka!

February 8, 2010 at 8:29 PMWow! Great job! The first thing I noticed in the before picture was that the refrigerator didn’t fit in the space. Just changing the appliances made a lot of difference, but everything looks so chic and nice!
