Flip Kitchen Part 2

I wasn't very specific with photos and what the process was like renovating an entire kitchen in under $1,000.00. So here we go:

The kitchen before was a nightmare. The house was originally built in 1905 but the kitchen was last updated in the 70's. There were no appliances, vintage steel cabinets and orange walls. Here are the befores:





First thing to do was hang the new upper cabinets I purchased from Habitat and painted white:





Then we removed the lower cabinet that was already there so that we could lay the luan needed in order to tile. In order to get the new dishwasher to work, half of the wall had to be removed on one side of the room so that the electrical work could be done.





Next we tiled and painted the room:







Months later, it was time to install the lower cabinets:





Finally, during the home stretch came the countertop, sink, appliances, basically putting humpty dumpty back together again.

Here she blows - an entire kitchen from top to bottom for under $1,000.







If you want to know where something was purchased, let me know.
