Kitchen Makeover

Some may know that I'm a realtor and we recently purchased a house
that we are going to grow old and die in

In a Realtors years that's 3 - 5 yrs

At this point it's an addiction to remodel and sell

Let the games begin!!!!

This was our YELLOW oak kitchen and it's about to get a makeover

We wanted a modern french feel, not the bright white cabinets,

but a soft neutral off-white color with a charcoal gray detail glaze

 

This was our tile color before we stained it

It's not bad but we want to go with a grey color scheme

It's very "peachy" in color and it tends to stand out
 

Voila!!!!

 

This is the look we wanted and we achieved it

I love the fact we didn't have to demo the kitchen tile and break the bank

to get a look we wanted

We also added crown molding to finish the look

Whats a french look without the crown. no?

After we painted the cabinets the tile color didn't compliment the rest of the kitchen so I use a product called stain and seal.

I mixed a metallic silver with a ebony and created a nice translucent grey tone.

I cleaned and prepped the surface and applied the product right on the tile

NO PRIMING!!!

I then stippled it and use a very high grade commercial top coat

As you can see the grout took the stain darker

so it looks like a dark gray grout

We love it!!

Next you say ???? A DIY hood vent.

Stay tuned...
