Learn about some simple ways to modernize and update your kitchen in this final reveal of our refresh makeover.
This is the final reveal of our kitchen refresh makeover.
One of the last things we did was change the hardware on our cabinets.
I'm happy to say that Liberty Hardware was kind enough to supply us with these beautiful knobs and pulls for our cabinets. Liberty Hardware, is a high-quality hardware manufacturer creating everything from cabinet knobs to switchplate covers and more. Best of all not only can you find them online but they are available at all the big box stores in your area.
I chose these beautiful Grecian knobs for the drawers and these coordinating handsome Nolan cabinet pulls for the doors.
Some projects are never-ending. As you can see in this view we still need to paint the sliding glass doors on the left that lead to our screened in porch. This is something that's going to require a few people and some coordination. Then, after we thought about it, we decided we are going to replace the entire unit.
However, I'm still loving the large botanical poster art project on the wall. Our Amish table and chairs set are one of the first things we bought as a married couple. A while back I refinished the table top, but I haven't decided what to do with the base and the chairs. Should they match the top or should I paint them white, or maybe black? What would you do?
Here's another view from the table looking towards the stove.
We're really enjoying the new look. The kitchen looks so much brighter and lighter.
The new floor was a big update. However, the other changes, new hardware, DIY artwork, easy handmade window treatments, fresh herbs on the windowsill and lots of paint made a huge difference in the look of this kitchen.
I just don't know why we didn't do it sooner.
What changes have you done to update your kitchen?

Oh what a lovely, lovely kitchen! No wonder you create such delicious dishes! This kitchen is so inspiring. You did such a great job! Love the new hardware. As for your chairs, I just read a post that Kristine from the Painted Hive did using these exact chairs. It was soooo cute. So there's an idea. 🙂 .. Wishing you many happy days and great memories in your new kitchen... Susie from The Chelsea Project

You have a lovely kitchen, Patti! The brick gives the space such a classic look and what a great job on the cabinets! Love the knobs and handles you chose! I agree with Carole on the chairs!
Patti Estep
Thanks CD. I really need to tackle those chairs next.
Carole West
I really like the simplicity and clean lines in your kitchen and that brick is cool, gives off a great vibe. Those chairs maybe similar to the cabinet color? Love the table too such a treasure!
I'm getting ready to share my first year of tiny living soon and I'll tell you this - I miss having a kitchen and this space just makes me miss it even more. Love what you've done it's amazing!
Patti Estep
Painting the chairs similar to the cabinets is a great idea. I never would have thought of that. Thanks.
Karen
What a beautiful kitchen, Patti! I especially love your stove...it’s very similar to plans we have for ours. When we bought our house 2-1/2 years ago, we knew right away we wanted to totally remodel the kitchen. It’s still on our list. 🙂
Thanks for sharing yours. It’s so inspiring!
Patti Estep
Thanks Karen. We've been in this house for almost 15 years. I wish I would have taken pictures of it when we moved in. Who knew I would start this blogging business ten years later. Best of luck on your kitchen remodel. I'm sure it will be gorgeous!
