This beautiful home on Mountain Island Lake was in need of an update and what better place to start than with the kitchen?! The homeowners knew they wanted a fresh look, but weren’t quite sure where to start, so in I come helping them step out of their box and into the world of pretty blue/grays and soft whites for one of the most amazing transformed kitchens that quite frankly gives me kitchen envy!
The darker cabinets, blue tile backsplash with beach motif and ho-hum lighting screamed, “ready for a makeover”!

ooh la la, loooooove this kitchen!
It all started with the paint. I knew what color I wanted the walls, the cabinets, island and bar area, but needed that perfect countertop to pull it all together. And here it is, the most beautiful quartzite I had ever seen. Beautiful movement with different shades of grays and whites- perfect with the paint we selected.
Here is a great picture of the quartzite installed…
A few more great shots…
A separate bar area complete with mini fridge and ice maker
Look at all this storage concealed behind a great barn door
An innovative spot for the microwave- even opens by the push of a button
Love the splash of red in this space…
Every cooks dream… hidden storage for spices flanking the stove- a perfect place for them!
We used Amerock hardware from their Allison line, its modern edge with classic vibe added just the right touch!
I love my job- to be able to see a space transformed and know I had an important part in bringing it all together, makes me very happy!
