I've been working hard on our kitchen.
First, I stained everything with a grey wash; it looks SO awesome.
Then I replaced all of the drawer pulls with vintage-look pulls. I've always wanted those and now I have them :)
Third I added bun feet to make the cabinets look more custom - it definintely helped.
Now I am in the middle of adding beadboard to all of the outside panels and to wrap the whole kitchen island. It is a multiple step process: cutting the boards to fit, then adhering with Gorilla wood clue and finishing nails, and finally staining the boards.
Final steps include a new kitchen counter (most likely in granite), most likely a new sink (looking at farmhouse/apron sink models), lighting over the island and maybe a tile backsplash (not sure yet).
I just bought these vintage look barstools off of overstock.com.
$67 for BOTH and FREE shipping. Can't wait til they arrive later this week.
The bun feet is just pure brilliance!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to hear more about the chalkboard-ness. COOL!
And those stools? AMAZING deal!
Looks great! Where did you get the grey wash? Was it difficult to do?
ReplyDeleteI would like to know that too! What brand did you use/How did you make the grey wash?
