You have probably added at least $20,000 value to the home. They need to take you out to eat at a very nice restaurant to say thank you. Outstanding work. It looks so good. I’d say to keep everything similar I’d paint the kitchen cabinets black. Can’t wait to see what you do to the kitchen

I used to clean houses. I had one house that had black kitchen cabinets. It looked amazing...when clean. I found that spilled liquids and spatter showed up more pronounced on the black. It was then I made a note to myself....never have black cabinets. 🤣

This is my favorite thing about Tuesdays--seeing what magic YOU have created in the previous 7 days. The bedroom makeover--especially the built-in dresser was inspired and transforming that awkward space underneath into storage was brilliant and exceptionally handy too. I think sticking with the black and natural wood for cabinets in the kitchen would follow the color scheme you have incorporated throughout the entire house. I'd probably go heavier on the "wood" details just to make it feel warm and "homey" (e.g., butcher block island with underneath storage and "hooks on some of the sides to hold dishtowels, miscellaneous kitchen tools?) Can't wait to see next week's installment!
