When I first saw this before kitchen, I thought, “Hmmm, looks alright to me!” Sure, I would probably take down those ‘sad circus tent’ curtains and opt for a un-shinier floor, but then I saw the after and it knocked my socks right off! Far exceeds what I could have envisioned. That’s why these things are best left to the pros while I simply gasp in wonder at the pretty pictures.
Lot’s more gasping to do over on Kelly’s blog Oak House 5.

November 8, 2011 at 10:25 PMI said it last week and I’ll say it again … cabinetry to the ceiling does more for a kitchen than almost anything else. It’s amazing. Also, more and more, I’m noticing that corner cabinets set an an angle make a room seem smaller. Is it just me or is that really a thing?
Anyway … amazing transformation!
