This was our before kitchen and then our kitchen we planned and did ourselves.

Galley kitchen but have a view of the sound, which we couldn't see because of the low cabinets. Kitchen too small and dining room too big for two people. We love how it turned out. Now wondering if I should put door pulls on or leave it.

    Beautiful transformation! The upper cabinets that overhang peninsulas are something that just never works in my opinion.

    Congratulations on a beautiful kitchen and the bonus view you get now.

    I love looking at all the redos on all the houses.

    It looks great! I do think some pulls would complete the look. Nice work!

    I think pulls would give your kitchen a more finished look. Find some that don't project too much from the cabinets.
    Beautiful transformation!

    Good move on removing the upper cabinets...it really opens up the space. Love the materials you selected too!

    Beautiful job! Definitely put on some hardware. Something in a oil rubbed bronze finish would look great.

    Night & day! Great decision to remove the upper cabinets on the peninsula as mentioned by Christopher James Interiors above!

    Handles also keep wood doors looking better longer.

    Wondering how your stove location is working? Just gutted home and we are thinking of same concept...

    hparks74 - we love the location of the stove now. We like to entertain and this way while my husband is cooking we can watch and talk to him. It's great. Thank you all for your comments - looks like I will be bringing some pulls home and playing with what I like. :)

    Beautiful! I would recommend the door pulls-I haven't had them for a long time and its annoying!! We are putting a slide in oven and vent just like yours- it looks great!!
