My new Master Shower Renovation

Had this dark cave of a builder's shower in my master bath, and I had had about enough of that!... needed a flashlight to shave!! =) Now with glass letting in all light, especially from the large window over the tub, an extra 3 square feet of shower space and a new super quiet exhaust/light fixture, I'm in 7th Heaven! My legs look better too!

An Amazing Kitchen Transformation

This kitchen screamed 1980's and had to go! The entire room was gutted and a new design made it feel fresh, airy, and much bigger. ...»

Some of the changes include: removing the bulkhead, raising the ceiling, installing recessed & pendant lighting, removing the awkward-shaped bar and replacing with a more functional island, installing fresh white cabinetry, adding subway tile and backsplash, adding granite countertops, installing hardwood floors, and installing high-end appliances.

FOR SOME REASON, I HAD A HARD TIME UPLOADING MY PHOTOS PROPERLY! THEY LOOK MUCH BETTER ON MY BLOG! Here's the link to see more: http://www.michellelunt.com/2012/01/from-out...

Remodeling: Does anyone like IKEA kitchens?

We helped our homeowner remodel his kitchen with IKEA cabinets in order to give them a mid century modern feel to their mid century ranch home. They loved it. What do you think?
