Kitchen Revamp

I finally feel like we're settling in as a family of four. Not to say it's still not challenging - because Oh, Lord, it definitely is - but I'm finally being inspired to do something other than sleep, eat, and diaper babies.

I had a million and one projects I want to complete and it's overwhelming, not to mention expensive. One of the sore spots for me is my kitchen. It's not bad, but our new floors make everything else look a little generic.

Problem is, kitchens are expensive to redo. I was thinking subway tiles for the back splash, new granite countertop, crown molding for over the countertops, maybe a new sink...

Like I said, expensive.

Then I found this post on one of my favorite blogs.

I don't love everything about this kitchen...as in, I'd probably paint the cabinets white instead of black, and I'm not touching my new floors, but I love, love, love this backsplash.



Bead board! It's genius!

Then, I found this post.

Can you believe this countertops are painted?



So inspired!
