Finally The Kitchen Reveal!!! Yeah!!!!

Here is my kitchen Redo.  My 2014 blog resolution is to not spend any money on Redo's in my home and to repurpose things I already have into the new decor.   I did just that in the new kitchen makeover.

 I am really excited that this whole project.  It was done with the only money spent on one can of paint and some new cabinet knobs I got at Hobby Lobby with a Christmas gift card.

I was able to remake a lot of what I had either into new pieces, which I love to repurpose or brought back things I had already into kitchen decor.

I have to give a big THANK YOU to my hubby that can take my creative crazy visions and make them realities!!! Without him I could not have all these changes.  So thanks honey for you and your tools!!! XXXOOOO.

I will start with the long wall pass through of my kitchen.  I rehung the shelves I already had back up on the left side for all my white ironstone.  The old vintage cabinet made out of old windows and pieces of doors and that old dresser my hubby made into a little china cabinet for me in the middle.  

The old shelf I had once in my guest room made out of old doors pieces is now hanging here and an old picture frame.  A piece of the old ladder from the living room is now repurposed for a drying rack for flowers.  I will so love that in the summer months.  I moved one of my old chicken wire dress forms to put my french apron on and my old french picnic basket sits under the shelf for storage.

This repurpose cabinet now can hold all my napkins, table clothes etc.  in the drawers and old vintage bottles on the top of the cabinet.  So two pieces of furniture from different parts of the house made into one cabinet.

Rehung the same shelves and brought out an old chippy stool I had in one of the bedrooms.  Looked french farmhouse for under the counter.

I am so going to love this old ladder piece for a drying rack in the summer for flowers.

Just added the feel of fresh farmhouse flowers in ironstone vases with some faux flowers.

Old french cutting boards and measuring cups.

Love these little old mason jars with vintage french silver ware I got from tattered tiques last year.  It is these little touches that make me smile.

My old french picnic basket I use for storage.

My Fav Dress Form from my office.   She is made from old chicken wire and the stand and hanger are vintage from the Old Hilton Hotel from Downtown Chicago.  One of my favorite treasures I have.  I love that I have this old piece to hang my farmhouse apron.

I covered my counter chairs with the fabric that I made the sink skirt out of.

That old vintage pantry door with the chalk board my girls gave me for Christmas.  It fit perfectly on the pantry.  Love that door.  It is right next to my refrigerator and easy to make a grocery list.

These are the new knobs I got at Hobby Lobby with a gift card that was a Christmas gift.  They are actually two pieces I put together.  A french clock knob and the metal piece behind it.  I am still debating on wheither to paint the metal dark part white.  What do you think?  I think it gives some contrast to the white cabinets so I was not sure.

This is my skirt that I sewed for the farmhouse sink.  Those old chippy posts I use to have above the sink on each side of the window put I thought they looked better down on each side of the skirted sink.

Added a little bling above the sink with a smaller chandy I had over my desk in my office.  I have been switching and playing switch around the lights of late.  I am thankful my husband is great and electrical stuff like this.

Just switched up the decor on my shelves that were already up in this part of the kitchen.  You can see the chandy my hubby gave me as an early Valentines present.

Love to use the old frames I had and repurpose them in this
kitchen decor.  I framed out the chandeliers and also my
kitchen clock.

Kitchen a week ago

New Kitchen Now.

Old kitchen a week ago.

New Kitchen. It feels more open to me now.

Here is a picture of the kitchen with the chandeliers lit at night.  This picture does not do this justice it is so pretty with the chandeliers at night in this kitchen.

There you have it my first re purpose and re love room change up for 2014 and only money spent was on a can of paint.  Wooooo Hoooo this was fun.

Next make over will be on the living room.  Nothing big just going to try a new technique on the TV Amorie that my husband made for me and making a few new repurpose things for that room.  I am bringing in a little more cream to the grey and white so that will be the next change up with no money spent!!!!

Have a great rest of the week  Be sure to come by on Saturday I will be featuring Kathleen from Faded Charm on Spotlight and I know you will just love getting to know her on a more personal level.
