Our countertops have arrived and we now have a usable kitchen! Yippee! Remember what it looked like?

Here it is now:
And remember my little white birds? They ended up over here:
There’s still some work to be done, but the kitchen looks (and functions) SO much better!

It looks incredible! You are amazing, you just keep on working and the whole house is looking fabulous for it.
Looks great! What are you going to do for a back-splash? 18 months after our reno and we still can’t decide…
Holy moly that’s a big improvement. Congratulations on the remodel!
Thanks, everyone! The counters are actually brown, but they do look black in the photos. They’re “saddle brown” quartz.
Backsplash? Um, we haven’t decided yet either! Probably yellow/green subway tiles, but we aren’t exactly sure.
Wow!!! It looks amazing! Can’t wait to see the rest of it.
Very nice! We redid our kitchen and it was supposed to have black countertops too… sadly we had to switch to tan tiles for budget sake. But, I still am in love with the white and black look. The birds are really cute too.
Looks really great. I love the green knobs!
We can’t decide between beadboard (tile or authentic) or subway tiles. I have serious problems with all three, which is why we have no backsplash! Well, and the fact that we went over budget, too. ;-)
sweet!
Love it! One hundred percent improvement over the old kitchen. I like how it is modern but still keeps with the feel of your home.
Great Kitchen! I have been using a camp stove for over a year due to our kitcehn remodel. Long story. Yours is lovely!
Yeah!!! This is such inspiration for me and our remodel…we were looking at dark stone and similar cabinets too (are those Ikea, by chance?) It’s really great to see your home coming along, it give me hope :)
Yes, our kitchens are definitely similar.. though I’m jealous of your brown rather than black countertops!
I’m trying to decide if I should glaze the cabinets a similar blue-green color to the wall so that there’s still some color left in the room once I put the white subway tile backsplash in. Of course, I’m having trouble making up my mind :)
I’m new here and I was hoping someone else would ask first, but can you source the materials? Countertop, cabinets, pulls? And is that wall apricot or are the lights deceiving me?
My husband and I closed on our house earlier in the week and I have to say, your blog is INSPIRING! I started a blog tracking our home improvements, but yours in just lovely.
Thanks for the inspiring kitchen reno….ours is in similiar neglect as yours was.
Wow, I love your kitchen, mine is close, but we are considering painting the cabinets white (they are this awful pickled oak) and picking a nice yellow for the walls, and you seem to have found just the right shades… Do you mind telling your paint colors?
The yellow is “Bronzed Beige” from Benjamin Moore.
Hi!! may I know where I can find this lovely wall birds???
Hi! I just came across your blog today and love your home! Can you tell me more about the white birds on the wall in your kitchen? I could not get the link above to work. Thank you!
They’re vintage, from eBay. Try searching for “syroco” and you may be able to find something similar.
