Fixer Upper Hosts Chip and Joanna Gaines turned the once disastrous room into a bright, clean kitchen with new cabinets, wood floors, Carrera marble countertops and light gray paint with white trim. The old drop ceiling was removed, adding height to the room, and a wooden support beam was added. A subway tile backsplash, floating wood shelves, and stainless steel appliances were also installed. Client Clint Harper added the finishing touches to the kitchen by making a beautiful island and vent hood out of reclaimed wood , as seen on HGTV's Fixer Upper. (After 7a) Afters

Relaxed and Casual

The renovated kitchen now opens onto this dining room with newly refinished wood floors, walls painted in soft gray and vintage-look farm table in distressed white finish.

The stairs were modified to fit the space better and new spindles were made to match the broken ones, but Fixer Upper Hosts Chip and Joanna Gaines worked to keep the original look of the stairway. A wall was removed to create a an open flow from the entryway to the living room, as seen on HGTV's Fixer Upper. (After 17)
