Kate Spade-Inspired Desk. Just follow their links. And I like the changes so far, so fresh and bright. I find it lacks a sense of who these people are….

I hope they are able to personalize it more. What an amazing transformation. No wonder your client is thrilled. Thanks Jann and Maria for sharing! I feel like all the houses where I live in the midwest United States look like the before pictures. It was a bit disheartening when we moved here.

I love seeing how they can be transformed into something beautiful! It gives me inspiration and hope for the future of my house! Thanks again for sharing! I have to go middle of the road on this one. It does look fresh and inviting…. That fabric set the stage. I would have added another color to use here and there to change it up from one room to the next without repeating it everywhere.

Just my opinion. It is well done, and a happy client is what matters regardless. My generation already did that and I always considered it to be the solution for those who fear color. No commitment. I would like to suggest your client purchase some large plants in some interesting pots, especially for the livingroom to pull in nature and veer away a bit from that pallet.

I predict all those white walls out there will be getting painted in the near future. Just saying….. I also think the dining chairs would be better navy or at least the stools would. I would also paint the handrail on the staircase black. The owner might also consider getting a larger natural, neutral sisal, jute, seagrass rug to put under the green in the living space.

It would add texture and warmth and make up for the green rug being a bit small. A bigger green rug would probably be too much. Also consider moving the chest of drawers into the entry way closer to the door and adding a rug there.

These are meant as suggestions for small twesks, not criticisms. Hi juli, Yes , they had 3 Snowfalls listed under BM colors. I had the salesman let me look at his screen. Companies do use the same names but these were listed under BM. I know, it was shocking.

Looks fabulous. All clean and fresh. Love all the white appliances and the new floor, too. Great job, Jann and Maria! I love the transformation as a whole! Just wondering. Could you explain your thought process? If I had to guess, I would guess that the very slight pink undertones at least I think I see some pink in it counterbalanced the green? I thought the kitchen looked so pretty in the first two photos.

I imagine that when you are standing in that kitchen looking around you, taking it all in, it is a wonderful light-filled space. The few white kitchens I have seen, though, do really look great in real estate photos, by the way. We will be moving soon and I would feel very blessed to find a home with a simple all white, or mostly white kitchen like this one! I like how this shows a home transformation that relates to a space most Americans can afford to own. It is lovely.

How were the various items — furniture, cabinets — painted? With a brush or sprayed? Homeowner or professional painter? Thank you. What I really like about this before and after story is it contains so many great examples and is so inspiring!

The difference it makes to just paint the trim or furniture, replace the fireplace surround, flooring and painting kitchen cabinets. Not everyone can or wants to do all it once. While I think the kitchen is quite lovely, it would still be easy to make minor modifications such as stainless steel appliances, removing some uppers and replacing with warm wood shelves, lighting.

It seems that most are a shade of grey trendy or some pretty shade of blue personal preference. Did they paint the wood trim or just replace it?

If painted, would it be easier to remove it, then paint, or paint it while attached to the wall? I replaced mine with a regular door when I updated my cabinets. Maria, superb job with the redone kitchen. We are getting bids to remodel our kitchen and the plan is for new countertops and backsplash to replace the lavender tile in both areas.

I have found a few pictures of white backsplash and countertops with birch cabinets like ours which we will keep. My preference for countertops would be quartz or white marble. Our floors are white tile. My question is, do you have a package available for remodeling rather than building a new space which you list above? Or, are they one and the same?

Are you in Canada or the US. Wow, beautiful transformation. I noticed the client had a Hoosier cabinet in the kitchen area but I did not see it in the after photo. This post has definitely inspired me to paint my oak table and chairs.

Thanks for sharing this project. I love the green, so fresh. I think white does work in this case. But the kitchen with white on white on white is too much. I would have gone with a very short backsplash and painted the rest of the backsplash a color, and probably also the wall above the cabinets.

But even all white is better than what they started with. Very nice transformation for the most part. I think Emily made a valid point about the kitchen not quite looking right. The white ceiling fan would be better being a pretty light fixture. I think a slightly more interesting or different color counter would have looked better. Wow what a transformation! It looks so bright and happy now!

Plus she had a lot of oak furniture and needed a plan, here is what we did: Jann had a navy leather couch and chair that her husband really wanted to keep.

I especially loved your suggestion of painting the green cabinet in our entry a fun green. And I also painted two lamps on our end tables green, and had our kitchen stools painted the same green color.

I also took your suggestion of staining the top of our dining table a darker color, and painting the base of it white. You had suggested painting the chairs navy, but I opted for white instead. In the kitchen we added a white subway tile back splash. You gave me 3 suggestions for wall color. I wanted a soft, pale neutral that would not compete with all of the bright colors.

We went with a medium brown hardwood floor for a timeless look and a bright green rug, like you suggested. We decided to take out the brick fireplace since we had never liked the brick that the builder had chosen.
