Before & After: Jessie’s Bright White Kitchen Reno

This kitchen seems to be suffering from a bit of a brown overload. With the combination of wood cabinetry and hardwood floors, plus the black appliances and dark green paint, this kitchen is looking a little dark. Jessie agreed with that assertion and decided to lighten up the room:

Isn’t it amazing what a little white paint can do? Of course, it’s a lot more than just a little white paint at work here. Over the span of one month Jessie, from the blog Imperfectly Polished, transformed this kitchen with a lot of little touches. There’s the subway tile backsplash, the DIY concrete counter tops, and the addition of beadboard to the ends of the cabinetry.

The addition of the concrete counter tops and beadboard do as much to spruce up this kitchen as painting the cabinetry. The beadboard has a way of making the sides of the cabinetry and island look finished. And the concrete counter tops? Well, they’re just plain pretty — and in a sea of granite counter tops, the concrete is a welcome change!
