I took on a painting project last week. My kitchen cabinets. Nothing fancy. Our house was built in the 50s and the cabinets are original custom built-ins. They don’t make cabinets like this anymore. Anyway, beige is out. Not that I follow trends but it’s nice to not look outdated. Ironically, I went for the old farmhouse kitchen look. New but old. I love beadboard so was excited to install it in the backsplash. The counter top might look cluttered but I like my kitchen user-friendly. The less time I spend in there, the better.
Before
After
It’s nice to have the kitchen fresh and clean, since I spend 80% of my existence standing right there. 
Love the new faucet too. Funny how these little things can make life simpler.

You have a beautiful kitchen!! I wish we had a kitchen! All we have is a table, a stove and a refrigerator! =[
Ella,
Marg it looks great. Looks like you did a lot of work. Beautiful mini makeover.
Thank you, both.
Marg, your kitchen looks so nice! Lots of cabinet space. Do you ever have enough? You have a nice window to look out of when doing your chores at the sink.
You’re right, there never seems to be enough cabinet space. You can never have too much, it seems. I did get rid of a few things in the process.
Love the cabinet space as well!
I wish I had more lower cabinet space. I sacrificed some for the dishwasher but I’d rather have the dishwasher.
