Kitchen Renovation

Our kitchen is probably one of the most used rooms in our house. We don’t just use our kitchen for cooking. We spend time doing crafts, playing, dancing, planning, blogging, etc. I mean I could go on and on. As I am writing this post, I am sitting at our kitchen counter with my coffee, water, and computer. We LOVED our kitchen remodel at our old house. One of my biggest desire when searching for a new home back in 2019 was finding one with the perfect kitchen. Unfortunately you can’t get everything you want. But I was sure to find a kitchen that had potential. And ours did. The cabinets are beautiful (at least to us). Sure they are not the off-white cabinets we had before, but this have so much custom detailing and are a great color nonetheless. The layout was ideal too. I even had my double ovens I always wanted. But like I said, it wasn’t perfect. I didn’t have a backsplash, and we once again had a very hightop bar. I also hated the faucet. So we knew when buying this house we would eventually re-do parts of the kitchen. We finally finished this renovation about 2 weeks ago, so I wanted to share with you all about it!

Staging Our Home

So it is no longer a secret that we semi-recently moved into a new home. And as I mentioned before, we LOVED our previous home, but we outgrew it. We looked at houses for about a year, then we decided to just pull the trigger and put our home on the market. With the way the market was, we expected it to sell fairly quick and that would give us the money we needed for a larger down payment for a bigger house. Well in order to sell quickly, I knew we needed to stage it as best as we could. Our house sold within 4 days when it first went on the market. Those buyers backed out. When we put it back on the market, it literally sold within 10 minutes. No joke. Staging may not have played a part, but it couldn’t hurt! Check out what I did below.

Master Suite Revamp

For quite a long time, we have wanted to spend some time updating our bedroom and bathroom. But we have just spent time focusing on other parts of our house. So we decided to finally make the time and update it back in May after Brad being there 10 years and I being there 5.
