A Stunning Kitchen Transformation For Just $590
by

Here is our kitchen reno on a budget. We spent about $590 total and got a much more functional and prettier kitchen!
Before...we had already removed doors for painting, excuse the mess!
Before...Fridge corner of kitchen was super crowded.
After...Painted cabinets with new hardware. Found a super deal on the hardware online. Got all new hinges and handles/pulls for $52!
New wood countertops made from pre-made table tops from Lowes. We stained and clear coated them, glued them down and put trim along the front. Costs us less than $100.
We cut out area in wall and boxed it in to recess fridge and then built a pantry next to it. This is where the bulk of our budget went (wood, drywall, etc). This addition gave us and extra 3 feet of floor space.
We tore out the old bar to make room for the pantry and made an island. We reused one of the base cabinets from the old bar for the island. I covered the sides in pallet boards and added a tiled top. We left overhang on each side so kids could sit at it. I have since painted the bar stools a dark burgundy/red.
We have so much more storage now and the kitchen feels so much bigger!

Thank You I defintiley will try that!! We have tried so many different things. And thinking of just replacing the oven doors and the part where the knobs are to turn te burners. It would still be cheaper than buyng a new stove. Hopefully, I wont have to do that.
