Jeny's Ideas: DIY Kitchen Reveal Update

It has been over 7 months since I revealed our kitchen makeover. It is hard to believe it has been that long and I am speechless about all the opportunities and attention that came with this experience. I never thought I would be doing anything other than teaching much less having a blog, guest blogging on Remodelaholic and being featured in Better Homes & Gardens Kitchen and Bath Makeover Magazine. How is this even my life?

When I first revealed the kitchen in October, it was bare bones. Just finished and barely used. Naked. Nothing on the counters, no curtains, nothing. Now it has some personal touches, curtains and it is definitely more lived in.

Here is what I started with.

Here are the updated photos. Thanks again to Jessica of Ever & Anon Photography for taking the amazing pictures.

LOVE. IT.

We are so excited with how great it turned out and how different our house feels and looks. I can't believe I live here. Thanks again to my husband for trusting my design choices and for helping me with this makeover. I could not have done it without him.
