Outdated Before

Before the makeover, this kitchen was dark and dated, with a floral wallpaper that overpowered the space.

New and Improved

After the remodel, this transitional kitchen feels more open. Overpowering floral wallpaper was replaced with a charming floral valance, and two decorative pendant lights act as the focal point above the new island.

Too many patterns overwhelm this cozy space, and the dark colors only make the room feel smaller.

Spring Green Breakfast Nook

In the updated breakfast nook, green upholstered chairs match the perkiness of the spring green walls. A large hutch is used for storage and to display a few favorite pieces.
