My only thought about a brick backsplash is how tough it’ll be to clean. It’ll hold dust, and general kitchen splatters. It looks amazing, but perhaps not as practical as tile.
Completely agree. I have stone tile countertops and backsplash, and while the tile is easy to clean, even the morter shows oil stains. I would never consider brick inside a kitchen knowing all I Kno now
That’s what I was thinking. The brick on the pillars would look sooo good and maybe a rustic subway tile or even a penny tile backsplash would go with it
Is there any way to add like a silicon cover to the tile and mortar so it’s easy to clean?
I have a brick veneer backsplash. It’s cute but I wouldn’t recommend, especially behind the stove. I plan to remove it when we remodel the kitchen.
Yeah - seems dirty for a kitchen. She could get brick-looking backslash tile.
This isn’t related to the renovation plans but I cannot get over how beautiful you look. You looked so polished and are absolutely glowing! 😍
Whenever you mention the former owners and them hosting lot's of events, all I can think of are those pineapples... 🤣 Love all your inspiration pics and can't wait to see the finished results. 😊
Me too!!!!
My brain went there too. 😝
Same!
You’re so wise to reuse and recycle as much of the existing cabinetry as possible rather than gutting and replacing it all for the sake of it. It’s so much better for the planet as well as your finances. You don’t have to have the ’dream’ studio McGee style kitchen to have something that works for you and that you love. Can’t wait to see it come together 😊
I’d recommend getting a professional painter for the cabinets that will do a hard lacquer finish! I wouldn’t recommend doing a diy with latex paint… it can chip very easy if you don’t let it dry for at least 48 hours
I agree with u
Love the idea of having your cabinets be a colour! LOVE that green!
In my old home we had super soft wood floors throughout the whole house even the bathrooms that started to get "beat up" within a couple of years from children, animals etc. Our contractor recommended refinishing the floors with a product called Gym-Seal which is designed for gymnasium floors, basketball courts, etc. Make sure it says on the can it is for gymnasium floors, basketball courts, etc. because there are other brands on the market by this name but are not designed for this type of use. Literally, this stuff is thicker than a penny with one coat and is so easy to clean! I lived in that home for ten years after we refinished the floors and the floors still looked brand new when we moved even in the bathroom. I so recommend doing this with your wood floors Angie.
Can you get this in a matte finish?
@@aleciahenderson5450 The finish I chose was matte and I really liked it.
I think if you go with combo bleach wood/(any) shade of green you don’t need to lighten your floors, leave them as they are. It will give warmth.
When you paint the cabinets use Heirloom Traditions paint!!! Its the absolute best! We repainted ours 2 years ago and this paint does not chip at all!
What I like about you and your channel is that you keep it real. You think things out and don’t always have to have brand new! Like how you cleaned and restained your outdoor furniture. That turned out amazing. We all have our dreams but I like how your tossing around the idea of being satisfied with what you can do with what you have and how to improve it. Good luck in whatever you find to be your solution.
If a brick look for a backsplash is what you decide on I would recommend looking into brick looking tiles. They will be more even and smoother for easier cleaning but gives the look of brick
Whaaaa! I love your kitchen! It's so homey, and rich, and wholesome, and golden. It is timeless.
I see it! Lightening it up will totally change the space! If you can get the right green to work with your existing floors and are able to lighten the wood, it'll be beautiful. I just had to strip, sand and paint all my cabinets and it's a lot of work, but so worth the time as it saved so much money and I didn't have to buy any new cabinets. New hardware and paint made it a whole new look. Can't wait to see how it works out!
Love the inspo pics. If this is your forever home, I’d gut it and make it your dream kitchen that’ll work well for your family for decades 💕
Been through 1 executed kitchen reno and am currently planning a second. MY BIGGEST TIP: Measure it out and use a floor planning app to see what really will and won't work.
I heard you say that you "don't think the full fridge and freezer will fit" where the current bar is. We switched to a full fridge for just a family of 6 and I LOVE it, a freezer wouldn't work beside it in our kitchen layout so it's about 6 steps down a hall and around a corner behind the door to our basement. We have no problem managing them separated.
With the new plan I am working on, I have a sort of U shaped kitchen which isn't wide enough to accommodate an island, but the 2 sides are too far apart to work comfortably, there's lots of zigzagging through the space to get anything done. Doing some measured floor planning and 3D rendering, I determined I actually have a lot more space than I thought to fit in a pull out pantry. I thought I only had 18 inches and I have 36!!! That will allow me to move my food storage upstairs, a huge win.
As for the cabinets, try stripping them then bleaching, I think it might work to lighten the colour, then you could do a pickling stain on them to cool off the tone and maybe introduce your favourite green.
Pine isn't meant to be used for flooring - way too soft and will just end up ruined if you re-sand it. In the UK it's only used as a sub-floor. Best to lay another floor on top - probably laminate or LVT.
I feel like I am sitting with a friend having a cuppa talking about renos when I watched this one. I love everything about your channel. Best wishes from Canberra, Australia's Capital.
I’ve had the thin brick in my kitchen for five years and love it. I always see comments about keeping it clean, but have had no issues even behind my gas cooktop. Maybe a swab test would reveal some old food bits, but wipe downs with soap and water have worked for me. Your cooktop doesn’t even have a backsplash, so no worries about keeping it pristine anyway. Go with what you love!
I would love the style of it... For my parents fireplace I have just used a very wet soapy rag and it cleans up well... idk why so many seem to think it'd be so hard... thanks for your comment! Now I know from someone that does have it 🙂
Agreed! We did a brick herringbone backsplash and I kept it clean no problem! Love brick ❤️
I love the color scheme for the cabinets. I can not see black matt appliances looking the best with that. I am excited to see your outcome. You have beautiful taste!
I LOVED the first photo inspiration, it seems the most timeless and hard to grow tired of in the future.
if you have to paint your cabinets, I recommend using a color on the bottom cabinet, then use your lighter color on the upper cabinets. they won't show as much dirt that way. I have white upper cabinets and my bottom cabinet is called poppy seed and I absolutely love it! changing the door knobs/handles will make a huge difference too!
we redid our kitchen cabinets several years ago and we used Citristrip to strip the previous wood stain. worked great!
Great tip. Also, in case and before restaining the cabinets - after sanding- in " Hannah's Happy Home " Hannah uses and recommends a pre-stainer for a more even coat. Do not remember which one.
Hi Angie,
My only advice would be to replace your countertops. There are so many beautiful faux countertops that look amazingly real (like marble, etc.) They are relatively inexpensive and very durable. We re-did our kitchen 8 years ago and I couldn't make up my mind on my countertops. My husband had said to get what I wanted because we would be living in our house forever. I honestly couldn't justify the huge cost difference for the expensive countertops so decided on one that looks like soapstone but isn't. I LOVE it! I'll probably have it forever and it doesn't bother me that it's not real. The farmhouse sink is worth fighting for, it is such a statement piece that really ties your look together and if you don't do it now, it might not happen for a long time. That's my 2 cents! Happy planning!
I love the brick arch, green washed cabinets and cream color! It will be beautiful.
A friend of mine had her drop in sink taken out and her contractor was able to retrofit her existing countertop to accommodate a farm sink. It’s doable!
Agreed!!!!
I was thinking the same thing, hopefully they’d be able to cut the existing counter top in place and add whatever extra support is needed from underneath.
My husband is a custom wood flooring manufacturer + installer. They work with a lot of recipes that they create and spend lots of time creating + perfecting them! With pine, keep in mind that it does naturally have a lot of yellow undertones, so I definitely recommend working with different recipes that do include a multi step bleach process before staining/finishing. ☺️ 🤍
One house we remodeled, we rented a floor sander, sanded down the floors, re-stained them, and poly coated them. It actually was surprisingly easier than I thought it would be. It was one of the few things in the remodel that was easier than anticipated. I love the brick look, but worry about keeping it clean. I absolutely adore the mat black with copper appliances!! What ever you decide I know will look beautiful. You always have great taste!!!!!
Excited to see what you come up with! We have DIYed many projects in each home we’ve owned and to help you with painting your cabinets... even if you get a paint that says you don’t have to prime, do it anyways! I have found that on some surfaces it doesn’t hold well no matter how much deglossing you do. And priming can help with having better coverage especially over dark wood. I do love your kitchen as it is but I totally get wanting to change it up, I do it every time we move I love making it my own. Good luck excited to see the end result!
We did a total remodel and were without a functional kitchen for 9 weeks. We used the Ikea Sunnersta mini kitchen to make it through. It was affordable. You could resell it when you're done or use it outside for gardening or animals. Good luck!
Lots of great ideas and plans!!! So excited that you are able to make yet another area in your home your own! You absolutely don't have to sacrifice the farmhouse sink dream - standard cabinets can be retrofitted - they just need beefed up support to hold the larger, heavier sink - and a granite cutter to modify the existing sink opening - I've been looking into it for our kitchen refresh!
For DIY projects, I love you and DIY Danie's work, very helpful and budget friendly
I recently found your channel and love it! I too have a very dark kitchen, dark floors and very 80s style. It's not our home. We currently live my MIL (long story). I would love to get the courage to suggest a DIY reno. Cant wait to see your kitchen reno!
I need to see a how do you get ready with hair and makeup! Love your look!!
I am dealing with some of your same issues right now for my kitchen. I don't want to change my granite but it looks like it is no longer available and we want to add a counter and move our microwave. Our cabinets are fine only 8 years old but need more counter space and larger bar for prepping and seating. Love all of your ideas just go with your gut and you wont be disappointed. If you have to change your counters I vote to lower that counter area. You will be amazed how that will open things up and seem so much larger. Good luck!
I love everything you're talking about...the only thing I think with brick (which I love the look of too) is it is hard to clean and also hard and rough, if little ones run into or fall into it. Also, I love that you are being honest and real about not getting every single thing you want out of the kitchen...that's real life for so many others that watch. I cant wait to see how it turns out!
Before you pull the trigger on cabinets I would recommend painting out the room and wood trim to get rid of all of the other red toned wood except for the cabinets. This would help give a better perspective on the floors. It could be that all the other red toned wood from the cabinets and trim is making them look more orange/red than they would if everything was painted. One thing to also consider with possibly restraining the cabinets is how whatever tone you pick plays with the floors.
Two videos today 😊the top you are wearing is so nice..fun to sit and look at different kitchens and dream with you…. stone floor looked great 🌸😊❤️
I just painted my own kitchen cabinets a similar green and walls a creamy white and I absolutely LOVE how it turned out!
Definitely consider cleaning practicality. Copper and gold faucets can require more maintenance. Also with the farm kitchens they scuff and the porcelain can chip with pots and pans. Just some stuff to consider. I’m sure this is going to look amazing!
Whatever you do will look great. I applaud your plan to reuse as much as possible. That is so sensible. As for color, I understand your wish to brighten things up, but I happen to love the wood tones as they are. Maybe paint the walls a lighter color that works with the wood you have. I don't have your decorating ability, but you will make it look outstanding.
I expect a lot of people will disagree with me 😬 but while I like a lot of the inspo photos shared it feels very trendy and like everyone else. I personally love your kitchen as is, with some small changes- maybe the appliances and sink and small decor pieces. I appreciate the warmth and classic look with all the open space that’s there. I wonder if the white even with a more moody color thrown in would feel too open and sterile rather than open and cozy like it is now. I’m excited for whatever you do because I know it will be beautiful and fit your family’s needs and goals. Best 🤗
I loved the last 2 pictures of the kitchen options. The darker wood one would be easier for you to achieve. What ever you choose I’m sure it will look lovely.
We have Luxury Vinyl Plank floors and they are amazing for a home that has kids and animals. I highly recommend!
We have an LVT tile effect floor - Amtico - really good, and waterproof.
I'm so here for ALL of the kitchen content. Will be very interested to watch and see how you make this happen. Thank you 😊
As someone who has had 2 kitchens with cabinets that are “two-tone” (top one color and bottom one color) … I think it seems a little too DIY. I would suggest doing a colors in sections vs. up/down. I’m sure you are aware: Zinnser 1-2-3 primer is a dream
My mom is an architect/interior designer and she loooves brick walls. So for her kitchen, she special ordered a brick wallpaper that looks exactly like a brick backsplash (people never believe it's wallpaper) and it's made for the kitchen to withstand frequent washing and even heat! If you can find something like that, it may be better than real brick...bricks absorb moisture and will accumulate dust. Another idea would be to pick everything else out before deciding on the backsplash, so you can match the backsplash to the design of the kitchen afterwards.
Otherwise, I really like your ideas! And I especially love the appliances you selected. However, if you choose dark appliances then dark cabinets and darker floors may be too heavy looking. If you keep your darker floors, dark appliances, and more airy/neutral coloured cabinets it would look really stellar. Just my thoughts. :)
Quick comment on the brick as a backspalsh- I have an uneven backsplash (similar to what brick would be like) and it's a pain in the butt to clean/wipe. Just food for thought- pun intended lol
I always think about that when I see stone/brick back splash.
I was thinking about that too. I’m gonna shy away from the brick as backsplash and do something else instead.
Same! Mine is a stone tile backsplash & it drives me crazy 😑
Not trying to comment in a rude manner by disagreeing... but wouldnt a good scrub with a really soapy wet rag clean it well? It works with my parents fireplace. A really wet soapy rag.
Painting the island a dark or light green, painting the cabinets that light woodsey grey color you showed would work great with the floor you currently have. But you have a great eye for interior design and regardless of what you choose to do, I think it'll come out beautiful regardless!
That black fridge and sink is amazing!
I have a few of those pictures already pinned lol
I just renovated after a flood with that same sage/ eucalyptus green cabinets and black slate floors. I’m surprised you want to remove the red wood, it seems so complimentary to your wardrobe. I like the brick backsplash or arches or floors. Everything in your kitchen is already beautiful I wonder if you would keep one of the red tones, either floors or cabinets. I do recommend a small kitchen elsewhere during renovation. Ikea has an amusing temporary kitchen setup for around $100. You will hate dishes. Just buy compostable disposable plates and bowls.
We moved into a home with white cabinets that were well done and we are living with it for now (for the last 5 years) and I wouldn't recommend it as fingerprints and everything shows up...even off-white would. I would also love the green colored cabinets and I think raw wood or brick beams would be beautiful, especially that arched pinterest look you showed if that is possible. I'm excited to see what you come up with as I love your design!
I redid my moms old wood cabinets about 2 years ago in a much smaller kitchen. They look great, but it was SOOO much work. We had to clean them completely, sand every inch, used wood filler, prime, sand, paint, let dry 24-48 hours, sand again, dry again, and possibly 3rd coats. The paint took about 28 days to "harden." Luckily she was not using the kitchen so that hardening process was not an issue, but I would be afraid to use the kitchen if I were in your shoes. Hiring someone to paint was so expensive it would have been about the same to buy new cabinets in our case.
Just some tips. Love the plan of the kitchen. When you are painting the cabinet, use a paint sprayer. You can use cup hooks on the top of the door, so you can hang them up. Alexandra Gator used this method. For the floor check out pvc floors, although kwality can effect durability. It comes in so many designs like wood and tile. Good luck
I highly highly highly suggest getting your cabinets resurfaced. You can get new door fronts in the style you want, and then a cabinet resurfacer can make the rest of the cabinet match. It is more expensive than painting, but in my experience painting does not last. It costs a FRACTION of the price of replacing cabinets but you will have the look of 100% brand new cabinets! We did it and I would suggest to anyone.
This is so relatable. Working with what you have and making the best of it. I just bought a Cafe matte white range for our upcoming kitchen renovation - heads up that the matte white and matte black are no longer in production. They are on hold. If you find one somewhere, BUY IT! There aren't many (if any) left anywhere and the "backordered until...." dates are just estimates. Last I heard from Cafe is they're out of production until about October of this year.
Just a heads up if you wanted a subzero style, Frigidaire makes separate fridge and freezer units and you buy a trim kit to put is all together. Thst is was we have and it looks exactly like a subzero
You can have your countertop cut to fit a farmhouse sink! As long as you have the room for it, it can be done😊
We are going in remodel our kitchen in a few months, and so many of the things you are thinking of doing is what we are planning on doing too. Brick elements, black hood vent and cooper accents, plus refacing our cabinets. Can’t wait to watch your progress.
had a dark kitchen and now a lght ,love a light kitchen especially working in one good for the soul heard brick floors are very unconfortable on ur feet good luck ill be watching u
I'd like to toss out a couple of ideas about the large sub zero fridge and freezer idea... I know that you utilize the butler's pantry area... but what if you put the freezer/fridge units there and have leftover cabinets surrounding the units. That would open up more counterspace in your existing kitchen area for prep work, etc. (where the old fridge is now). a double wall oven unit could also go in the area of the butler's pantry without losing too much space if you're worried about the larger fridge/freezer units being there. Also, as far as the empty space if you remove the existing fridge, you can install the cabinets from the butler's pantry to that spot so nothing goes to waste. OR get an undercounter fridge/freezer unit for beverages, etc in the bottom area left if you move the existing fridge. That would still allow you to have more counterspace but not have an empty space below. I looove kitchen design and remodel brainstorming!
There's a free (or super cheap) pc program called Sweet Home 3D that is extremely easy to use and fun to try different layouts. There's a camera function so you can do a walkthrough tour of your floorplan.
Hope you have fun with this project!

Love the Café appliances. Excited to see the outcome.
We have done two kitchen renovations over the last couple years. We got our hardware off of Amazon for both and we’re pleased with quality and price. Also if you’re looking for budget Friendly options you can find companies that sell used kitchen countertop, tiles, cabinets. Can’t wait to see your progress videos!
I love your color-scheme. My favorite shade green is sage-green, erring to darker/grayish. I would either go with bottom half sage-green and upper half lighter/wood-toned. Or the'wall part' of the kitchen as sage-green and the island as lighter/wood-toned.
The pine-floor will always be soft and easily get damaged. I would change thar to something more hard-waring.
I have never preferred black appliances so I can't see how it would work with your color-scheme. But that is personal oreferences.
Can you please tell us where you got your beautiful top?! So happy to see a new video uploaded from you! ❤️
Totally went and bought a chandelier I’ve been eyeing for months because you mentioned the sale. Best price I’ve seen all year! Thanks :-)
We used some of the same inspo pics for our new build kitchen! We are doing green cabinets too! Evergreen Fog from SW with a stained island and vent hood. We purchased 2 Fisher and Paykal counter depth fridges/freezer on bottom with a joiner kit to look like 1 big unit. I hope it functions well for our soon to be family of 6! Good luck I love your style!
Yes!!! I am loving all the projects & inspo youve been sharing!!!!
Hi Angie, I love your videos so much. Keep up the great content.
Please make sure you check if you need permits before you order anything. I've heard that without proper permits home insurance won't cover anything. 🤷🏼♀️ Just a thought.
I love the direction your heading sounds beautiful and I can't wait to see where you guys go from here.
I think if u have dark appliances like a fridge at the wall, I maybe would choose the darker color like green there around it, so make the island bright and the back wall dark and moody?
It sounds great. Can’t wait to follow along.
I’m very interested to see the cabinet transformation and process! I’m planning on redoing my kitchen within the next year (it needs it desperately) and the cabinets are extremely intimidating to me.
I’ve seen some drop in apron front farmhouse sinks. I watched one small Reno where their granite was cracked at the front of their drop in sink. They removed it, and cut the front of the granite. Then did a drop in apron front farmhouse sink.
We installed vinyl plank flooring over very orange/red hardwood when we moved into our current home. It was affordable, is very durable, we love the look and there was no need to remove the hardwood. It sits on top of the hardwood and is not adhered in any way so could be easily removed if someone preferred the hardwood in the future 😊
Yes - they should cover the pine, it's a softwood and not meant to be used for flooring, just a sub-floor.
I can't wait to see what you learn and experience with your red-orange cabinetry... I have the same issue in my house with both our cabinets and floors
@10:00 I lay good LVT flooring, a brand we like that is cost efficient is California bamboo. I personally wouldn’t rip the floor up in order to LVT, I would lay over it. But this also depends on your baseboards, trim, and your threshold as in if you can pull them and place them back. Are you going to have to then trim doors?
There’s a lot that goes into that decision for sure! If you like to reuse, then you could always reuse the current wood floor somewhere else as something else after staining it.
Oh also, look into a concrete floor. That may get you the color and feel you’re looking for without the brick.
I love the vision you have and the colour palette…I love that you realise you can upcyle instead of waste what is good / what works and as one of your many gifts is home design your half way there! My only thoughts are consider your black appliances against a mix of cream on top green on bottom …( might fell a bit busy) so maybe green cabinets top and bottom on back wall especially where double oven fridge etc are! And white or light wood island…yes to brick columns…splash back 🤔🤔you might then think to make floor darker🤷🏻♀️only because you asked! ❤️🙋🏻♀️🇬🇧💕jane
I have personally DIY'ed my kitchen cabinets/countertops with different paints, and I'm in the middle of re-doing my dining table and chairs. My opinion on stripping finishes is to SAND, SAND, SAND! I researched the heck out of strippers and used several, and they wouldn't take the finish and stain off completely like sanding did. Invest in a good Orbital and Detail Sanders, and I'm pretty sure you can get the cabinets boxes and doors to a light color you like. It will be messy and time consuming, but definitely DYI doable! Good luck!
We loved our wood floors in our older home when we had them redone, but now that I’ve seen how hard they are to maintain and how temperamental they are, never again. Light colored LVP all the way!
I just did my kitchen (very much on the cheap!). In the UK we have a brand called Valspar where you can get paint colour matched to any picture or paint sample you bring into a DIY store. I'm sure you will have something similar in the USA. This meant that I could get the exact colour I was looking for. I did a quick sand, used an any/difficult surface primer and then 2/3 coats of the colour. Used way less paint than I thought I would. Was careful for the first few days while the paint hardened and now it seems super hardwearing, which I was worried about. Really recommend it - it looks like a whole new room!!!
Love love love my black sink though. :) (copper would be hard to beat too!) The color inspiration made me think of Farrow & Ball “downpipe.” I painted it in my husbands office and adore it.
The barstools- we have those (from Wayfair) in our kitchen, too- in a green shade. Love them!!
I wanted a double oven also but no room. Replaced my microwave with a microwave convection oven combo. Might be a thought for you.
One thing that I don’t personally like the idea of is having natural toned wood cabinets with the more orange tone of the floor. I just can’t picture in my head how you could make those blend together. Just something to think about. It may not bother you at all but I would personally be a little hesitant! Im sure no matter what you do your kitchen will turn out gorgeous just like all of your other projects!!
I have been waiting for this video since you first moved in and said you wanted to renovate it!!! However, I'm extremely sad because I'm super sick and my head is too fuzzy to give you any helpful thoughts 😅 I do think based on other rooms you have worked on that you have an impeccable talent for getting exactly what you want the aesthetic to be and I cannot wait to see the process and the finished product!!
The oven cleaner fumes would knock you all out 🤣
Copper sinks are very hard to keep nice. We’ve got a matte black one and it’s awesome!!!
Very excited to see what you guys come up with! It's fun to contribute as a subscriber, so thanks for letting us! Love the vibe you're going for!
I definitely have thoughts and if you consider any of them that would fun! Maybe doing a more neutral brick (whitewashed or painted) could help seal from kitchen grime and work with the woodtone on your floors but still bring texture. I would hesitate to do the brick across the veneer beam you have over the island bc brick/stone is never used genuinely in tension (spanning across) only in compression (wall/arch/pillar). You could totally do it floor to ceiling spanning across your entire back kitchen wall and sides of island.
For "butler's pantry" you could put up something to the effect of a loft glass panel wall (modern farmhouse vibes)
Instead of that terrible veneer your beams and pillars are wrapped in you could just tear it off and wrap them in reclaimed wood to get that rustic vibe.
If you got this far... I'm so looking forward to it... and keep up the good work!
Love your vision. I think it would be much easier and just as affordable to get a contractor to build and fit new cupboard doors.
I think WHATEVER u end up choosing will turnes out so good! The open space and sunlights willl work with a lot of choices! + I say take advantage of the open space and be bold with the colors tones! don't use all bright colors cuz you don't need it that much!
I think the brick is absolutely gorgeous as a backsplash however you will ALWAYS have dog hair in your food. The dog hair and dust in the air clings to the brick and mortar and if you have it behind the stove and on food prep places it will continuously fall in the food. I am 100% all for a brick floor though!! Or brick on the back of your island where there are no cabinets and brick Pillars!!
I know whatever decision you make it wit can it will be right for you I love watching you you did your projects and and seeing all your animals and your garden I just love your little Homestead I understand where you're coming from because it takes money to do everything and raising a family Lee you can't always do Hiring people to do it for you II have that problem cause both my husband and I are disabled And there's so much I want to do but I can't afford to do it the way I want it God-bless you all and I know whatever decision it is gonna turn out great
The key to painting cabinets is to get a shellac primer, Zinsser is the one I have used (learned from another youtuber) latex is not going to last at all unless primed properly. Your kitchen is already beautiful by the way, but being a white kitchen fan myself I completely understand you wanting to redo it.
I like the Tuscan style one too
First of all, you look so Beautiful 💛secondly, I would be more than happy to watch more sponsored videos and adverts for you to get your dream kitchen! #MakeAngiesDreamKitchenComeTrue 😂
You literally mentioned all of my favorite things in houses 😂 we did a brick backsplash and I love it, my dream is to have a copper bathtub 😫😂
Give her advice on the cleaning the brick as well as if it’s an issue for you. A lot of people are commenting about the brick
@@racheallewis2437 I don't have an issue cleaning mine
That’s what I’m saying lord of people are discouraging her from doing brick, saying it will be hard to clean. I know it will be beautiful and we have a lot of brick in our living room and we use hot water and a rag to clean ours with no problem, even fireplace sut but they may say it’s different then the mess of a kitchen. Of course my children ate on the fireplace hearth and it cleaned up with the same hot water
Have you ever thought of just painting your floors? Maybe something with a diamond shaped pattern or just solid paint. It’s a very American Country kind of look. Also, don’t know if you were saying that those pillars are functional of just decorative, but it would really open up the kitchen it you could remove them.
being a mom of 5 with kids around the same ages as yours, I would think that replacing your floors with something lighter and more durable would be your best bet. I have tile on my kitchen floor and have for years, and the hardness is brutal when standing in there for extended periods. likely brick would give you the same trouble on the floor. I bet refinishing the floors would disappoint because of the softness of them. all the best moving forward! the inspiration photos are beautiful!
So funny. As I was watching this, I was using oven cleaner on a cabinet door to see how well it worked. 😂
Just a heads up copper sink is BEAUTIFUL but needs scrubbed all the time!! It turns dark so it will need weekly scrubbing...
Thanks for this, we were thinking about a copper sink, I think I pick something else, that will save us money too!
mr. kate's channel just did a diy counter top and sanded down there granite and stained it/painted it black. TURNED OUT SO COOL. You seem to like more industrial farmhouse, so that would be a cool option if you cannot replace countertops. also set up a prep kitchen, just collapsible tables and setup crockpots, paperplates, etcetera and have that be your kitchen. If you can set it up nearest to the bathroom or a sink so you can easily wash in the tub. just thoughts
