You HAVE to see the before! Can you guess what happened to the hot water heater?

When I posted this project I went back to find a before picture. I couldn't even believe it. I had forgotten what it looked like. When we bought the farmhouse in 2009, I fell in love with the kitchen and the attached butler's pantry. It was dark and dreary and wallpapered from celing to floor, but I knew. I knew that it could be so much more than a dark dreary space.

    I would love one of these! I do not like the idea of open cabinets in a kitchen because everything would stay dirty, but in its own closet sounds wonderful. Even shelves in a pantry style cabinet would be better than the kitchen cabinets where everything gets so jumbled!

    Now that's some renovation!! Your Butler must be very happy w/his new work space!! So where did you hide the hot water tank? I think I would just go in there, sit down and look 'n look 'n look!!! ;~)
