After: International Cozy
With the help of host Joan Steffend, carpenter Jeff Meyer, and less than $500, designer Barbara Sculati brings international color and flair to a once stark-white kitchen. Their first step is to update the cabinets. A fresh coat of white paint makes them look crisper. Then the tone of the makeover is set when beautiful stained-glass panels are adhered into the cabinet-door insets. New crystal hardware adds elegance and has the same sparkling sheen as the stained glass. Decorative tiles adhered to the backsplash provide a big impact of color and pattern.
