Kitchen Remodel Ideas

We recently remodeled our master bathroom, and I am so thankful for a working beautiful bathroom every time I walk into that space (click HERE for all the details on that remodel). However, now I’m dreaming about our kitchen, and today I’m sharing kitchen remodel ideas.

Kitchen Remodel Dreaming

We bought our home knowing there was a pretty significant leak under the shower.  However, life happened, and it was not until three years later that we actually remodeled the bathroom and fixed the leak.

Our kitchen is next on our wish list, but it will be a while before that remodel happens.

We made several cosmetic changes (see the details HERE), but it eventually will require a complete remodel.  The current design does not function well for us.  It is a tight squeeze to stand at the sink with the dishwasher open.  Our fridge is teeny tiny, but we would have to remove the cabinets (which includes a built-in oven) to get a larger fridge.

Since it took us three years to fix a leak, I figure I have plenty of dreaming time for the kitchen. 

I am currently on a blue and gold kick, and I love the look of open cabinets. However, I’m not sure I’m up for the dust.  I’m loving subway tile with dark grout and gold hardware with gray cabinets.

I want my kitchen to be elegant and welcoming.  Maybe a beautiful kitchen will suddenly make me love cooking?  A girl can dream!

I’d love to know – what does your dream kitchen look like?

  1. These are all gorgeous. We just finished our kitchen remodel and I know what you mean. I dreamed for a while too and now I have my dream. Couldn’t be better. Good luck with your planning.

  2. Your new bathroom is so beautiful and I love what you’ve done to update your kitchen. A question – what color(s) are in your countertops and what are they made of? They look so pretty with the new blue-gray lower cabinet paint color. You didn’t say you have replaced countertops but they look so much more expensive than before with the brown cabinets. Great job …

    1. Thanks Pat! I appreciate the sweet words. The countertops were already here when we bought the house, so I don’t know specifics other then that they are granite. I hope you have a great rest of your weekend!

  3. This is exactly the way I want my kitchen to look. White on the top and blue on the bottom with subway tile. I’m leaning towards copper for the metal aspect. Maybe some open shelves? I agree on the dust thing.

  5. Any idea who the maker is of those beautiful blue cabinets in the kitchen photo? We’d love this color on our bathroom vanity and having a hard time finding a match.

    Thanks!

#DutchBoyPartner This bathroom leaned a little cool, so I warmed it up with Sandstone Tint by @dutchboypaints and it completely changed the look of the space.

No major reno. No new cabinets. Just paint.

Save this if you’ve been wanting to try a DIY project

I created this reel two years ago, but since the fields behind our house rotate between corn and beans… it’s a corn summer again. 🌽

The older I get, the more I appreciate these ordinary little rhythms of life. Watching the field change through the seasons has quietly become one of my favorite parts of home.

We waited 13 years for this - and our house looks happier with her glow-up!

We went from a drafty single door (with a 90s glass inlay I poorly covered up) to double doors that allows in more light and feel right for our home.

What do you think?

*TWO THINGS that make wallpaper removal easy* Wallpaper has come a long way and there’s no need to be scared of it anymore! Before I hang wallpaper, I size the walls and often use pre-pasted SureStrip wallpaper that is activated with water! Comment WALLPAPER for easy to remove wallpaper links!
