At 72 I have painted lots of cabinets over the years but have never designed, purchased all the makeover materials or completed a whole kitchen. We did this project on a very small budget, about $3000. We have the best neighbors one, a carpenter, and the other couple have flipped a few homes so completed the backsplace & all tiles. We could never have done it without them.
Usually over a glass of wine etc. we'd discuss & plan, such fun seeing it all come together.
I have added before & after pictures. We couldn't be more pleased with the outcome.
