Recaptured Charm - Kitchen Makeover

Okay, these kitchen makeovers are just what I need (if you have one - email me!). This gorgeous transformation by Lisa at Recaptured Charm is beautiful. One thing I love about remodeling is the details and Lisa's kitchen is full of "charm". The cabinets, the cabinet hardware, the island, the beadboard, the stools and that window treatment! I am so inspired. Remember - I have one really ugly kitchen in desperate need of DIY surgery. Here is Lisa's post with her amazing pictures. I am in love! (For the record, I'd even take her "before" picture. Head over to her blog to see more!)

Finally! The Reveal
I had to look back at my very first Kitchen Chronicles post to figure out when it all started…. January 20th. Wow, it really has been a long time. But it was all worth it.

Before we begin, I have to give my sincerest thanks to Mr. Charming for all his hard work. Day after day, weekend after weekend of hard work and determination. I can’t thank him enough.

Another very important thank you goes out to my mother, who was here helping out every weekend. From getting down and dirty with the construction to doing laundry and supplying us with muffins and home cooked meals, it was all a huge help and very much appreciated. Thanks Mom!

So now………………. come on in, and take a closer look.

Oh, and a shout out to my kids who came home when the kitchen looked like this and asked, “hey Mom, what’s for dinner ?” Thanks kids! Ya knows I loves ya!

Lisa - it is BEAUTIFUL! That's all I can say. Otherwise, I'm speechless (and jealous). Thank you so much for sharing.
