Kitchen Remodel

This October we celebrated our 4th year of living in our home! We just love it here and although it's not our forever home, it has been such a wonderful blessing and we are so thankful for all the memories we have made here and all the more to come. Our house is 14 years old and although she's really good about not showing her age...there are some dead giveaways, like all her brass accessories and most obvious...the kitchen. That's always been on the top of our "need to remodel" list after we took care of all the wallpaper when we first moved in. So this was our first major remodel and I couldn't have been more pleased!!!

Creighton and I learned early on that the Lord didn't bless either of us with the DIY spirit so for the sake of our marriage we hire those that have been gifted in such areas to tackle said projects. In this case, we have Tristan at Lowe's to thank! We kept the cabinets and floor as is, so it was more of a face lift. The countertop is Autumn Harmony granite and the backsplash is Indian Autumn slate with travertine accent tiles. We updated our appliances and sink to stainless steel...the sea of white is no longer! My favorite part is the backsplash above the stovetop, the slate tiles they used there are so unique and colorful, it's exactly the look I was going for. We are so happy about how everything turned out and can't wait to have everyone over! Below are a couple of before and after shots...enjoy!
