Skinning the Proverbial Cat

Even typing those words makes me cringe...where do those sayings come from?  But the point is, there is more than one way to do it, and that's what this story is about.

Not every kitchen redo allows for a complete gutting and reconfiguration.  There may be budgetary or space restraints...or it could just be that the kitchen works as efficiently as is needed, but maybe it's just time to freshen it up.  We're going to look at a kitchen where this was the case.  It is a small kitchen that was a little dreary, and definitely dated, but functioned well.  Though the laminate covered cabinets hearkened back to the 80's, the construction was solid.  And there were other elements of the kitchen that were nice enough to work with in the renovation.  Let's take a look at the before photos.








The function is there, but not a kitchen that makes you feel excited to walk into.  When we're done, this kitchen will take on an entirely different look, without moving a single element!  Check back next week.
