Our kitchen renovation isn't completely finished but I thought I'd share a quick before and after photo. Several things bothered me about the old blue cabinets. The upper ones didn't match the lower ones, a good number of them didn't like to shut properly, and the inside wasn't in all that good of shape. And the floor... "yuck!" that sums up what I think of them. As soon as we moved in we put a new fridge and dishwasher in. White appliances went better with our old house and we kept the white gas stove that was here. The fridge was too tall to fit so we had to knock out the cabinets above it right away which showed a nasty pink/salmon color behind them (reason for my big painting trying to cover it up).
I hand textured and painted the walls, made the curtains, and handy hubby custom made the beautiful cabinets out of ash. Now this space feels so much cozier and I enjoy spending time in it.
Yes, so much better don't you think? I still can't believe it's my kitchen.

Wow! It looks fantastic! Love the cross on the wall.
BTW I think we have the same kitchen floor. I just redid mine in May.

That's very pretty! I could easily cook there!
Beautiful transformation!!
{Although there was a certain retro-charm in the before...prob, b/c I'm partial to turquoise}
But, seriously I love the wood that you used and the floor too! So lovely, I could be inspired to cook in it!
