My Mom's Kitchen Renovation is Complete For Under $5000

My Mom's kitchen was getting old and outdated. Her walls used to be red, dark red, with oak cabinets and it was lacking a backsplash. She had been wanting to update it for sometime but didn't want to spend $50,000 on a brand new kitchen, so she used what she had and updated her kitchen.
Before! We forgot to take pictures before the granite and backsplash went in, but it will at least give you an idea of what is looked like.
And here is the after! What a stunning transformation. This kitchen went from dark and outdated to bright and cheery! It was a lot of work and took some time but I think she would agree it was worth it. It is a whole new kitchen.
Instead of replacing all of her cabinets they replaced the inside with bead board.

    Looks great! Can you please post a picture of the inside of the doors? I'd like to see how they finished the bead board inserts.

    beautiful I also noticed the light. instead of replacing it I would paint the metal black to match all your dark hinges and faucets. Or go funky and paint it turquoise
