DIY Kitchen Remodel

Wow has it been a long time since I have posted here. Since then we bought a 1950's fixer upper house and have been having a blast fixing it up! We figured we would do the kitchen slowly and over the next 5 years.. we have lived here 8 months and it is almost complete! Here are some fun pictures of what we did! My husband made our wood counter tops all from scratch, our sink is from ikea and we did the subway back splash ourselves with a dark grey grout.

 After! Lots of sweat and labor into these countertops, floors, cabinets and back splash but OH I love it.





If you want any details on the paint or materials we used please let me know! Still LOTS of finishing touches to do but I am loving it! Also SO thankful for my thirty-one business to help fund our little home remodel! www.mythirtyone.com/michelledean

  1. What a drastic change! You created great variations for your kitchen, including the cabinets, sink, countertops and paint combinations. I can only imagine how awesome it will look like after all the finishing touches. Keep us updated! Have a great day! :)

  2. It’s not good to block your kitchen’s view with a cabinet, and you did a great job of removing it first. Congratulations for completing some projects for your kitchen within 8 months! Your kitchen certainly looks like it was done by professionals. Well, all those sweat and efforts are all worth it. Anyway, I hope you’ll be able to post the kitchen reveal soon, if you haven’t already. I wish you all the best!

  3. I believe that your pre-made plans and preparations sped up the timeframe for the kitchen remodel. I can only imagine the focus you exerted in finishing the room as soon as possible. Kudos for a job well done, guys! Did you do any other recent home improvements after this one? Have a great day!
