DIY Kitchen Makeover on a Budget 

Believe it or not, the makeover of this 1980's kitchen  was mostly DIY. Today I am sharing some of the  projects used to transform this once outdated space on a budget! 

Before:

To brighten the once dark space, I painted both  the walls and the kitchen  cabinets. 

To transform the nasty,  dated tile floors, we installed luxury vinyl tile directly over the old ceramic tile. 

When we first moved in, there were no doors on our pantry, so we built some  farmhouse- style  barnwood   doors for under $100. 

To make a  modern design statement and also add some functional light over the island, I made DIY cone pendants  for less than $100- no need to hire an electrician either. These were super easy to make! . 

The Result?

A chic and bright kitchen upgrade  that didn't cost an arm and a leg!
