Kitchen revamp

I decided it was time to paint my kitchen. I love the all white look but thought it would be nice to have a little definition between the cupboards and the walls. We also have cool old trim around our doors that was kind of hidden with the white on white look. I was also inspired when I went and visited my super cute cousin. She is an interior decorator and has great taste. Her house had a nice light gray paint with white trim. http://6thstreetdesignschool.blogspot.com/
I wanted a similar look. The color it turned out isn't exactly what I imagined but I like it. Now my next step is to do crown molding. Lindsey.... hint, hint....my friend of many tricks...

This is a before picture

After. I love how you can see the molding around the door now!
Ok... now is imagine a marble counter top and a pendant lamp hanging down!

  3. Search marble on Craigslist under materials. There was an island posted for $50 and maybe it could be cut in half to fit. And I'm back from vacation so we can whip out the crown molding if you want!!
