It’s a new year, which means it’s time for a fresh new start. And I want to kick off the year by making over our kitchen. And don’t get me wrong, this kitchen is beautiful, it’s the best kitchen I’ve ever had to be honest, but what would make it even better is if it just wasn’t so GRAY. We are renting, so I want to show you ways to make non-permanent changes to your kitchen like adding a wood slat wall panel, peel and stick backsplash tiles, contact paper wrapped cabinets, and new knobs!

I think the real backsplash tile is SO much better than the “stickers” …
Same I really thought the change was a downgrade…
...The bad thing about the " Real Backsplash " is ALL THE TEXTURE. I'm not sure why anyone would use that much of a Textured Splashback ,in a Kitchen, because it's not a good idea; you actually
w a n t a smoother surface, to keep it clean... This Tile they used is NOT " Kitchen friendly. " so they must have bought it for really cheap. ...; That's the problem with some Companies ( owners of Rentals) and some Landlords.....They just want to do things " cheaply " instead of doing them " Properly" ....Because in the long run, a lot of it doesn't make sense...This backsplash does not make sense.,it is MUCH TOO textured to be in a Kitchen. And the colour is horrible. It makes the Kitchen feel dark ,especially with the paint on the Cabinets.
Yes, I have ' first hard experience " ,with picking Tile, cutting Tile, matching a pattern, etc. ,As well as choosing Paint Colours for a Clients Home.
So she was desiring to have that " Smooth, Bright Surface " as opposed to the JUNK that was used for this Kitchen Application;
I can say , whoever decided to use this HORRIBLE Tile probably figured/ said to themselves..." Oh, it will make the Kitchen look more 'High End : .." ... UHHHMM.
NO, it does not.
I actually love the original tiles, it looks even better with the green of the down cabinets.
agree!
I love the wall slat idea! I am very confused by the decision to cover the backsplash though. They aren't a colour I would pick but they are so beautiful and unique!
Haha same I would killll to have those tiles! Oh well, everything else I loved!
Yes, the existing tiles were unique & gorgeous! Such a downgrade.
The paneling on the island looks so good!
I really like your tiles! So much nicer than most tiles in rentals:)
I'd have done the backsplash in the same paneling, again held on with Command Strips. The brass pulls look terrific! All quite affordable, too!
Oh that could look could! I don’t think it would be very easy to clean though with cooking messes?
I saw a gray kitchen and you saw an empty canvas 💛 so proud of your resilience and changes that you made to our home, love! I know that the final makeover is going to be 🔥
The paneling looks so good!! Are you going to wrap the other side of the island with the green contact paper! That’d look so good!
Tina, so excited for the first video of the year from you. I also appreciate you being real with us. It’s nice to know that everyone has the same issues. It’s also really helpful to see how you pivot and find new options. As a diy newbie, I am really appreciative, so thank you! Can’t wait to see your finished kitchen. I absolutely love what you did with the island. Thank you!!
Ahhhh, I really appreciate this so much. I used to go into videos thinking a had to make everything perfect, but that just isn’t realistic especially when you are trying something out for the first time 👏🏼
Love that wood panel! Such a smart solution! Excited for part 2!
Gloss is a lot more forgiving than matt. I used gloss peel and stick white vinyl on my kitchen tiles, and used a hairdryer to soften it into the grooves between the tiles and it looks great! Great makeover x
Love it! FYI, beware those round knobs…I STILL get caught on the knobs! I think it’s a height thing…
Please please cover the rest of the island in the green contact paper 😍😍
I did this in my old house and I had shaker style cabinets. I ended up doing the inset part of the shaker cabinet doors and it turned out really good. I also used auto wrap vinyl. I love watching your videos and finding inspiration for our house we just had built ❤
I love the green color on the bottom cabinets and I love the mini frames for the fridge. The brass knobs on the cabinets are definitely an improvement but I think you will still catch on the bottom ones. What I did on my kitchen is to put knobs on the top cabinets and handles on the bottom cabinets (the kind of handle that has no parts that are sticking out and can be caught on anything). The two different kinds of hardware are in the same style/color/material so they coordinate. I love it this way!
I love how you show your whole process. I feel so much more encouraged to try when I see that even pros make happy accidents 😊
I love how warm it looks! Great job!
I think the new slats look incredible! I think they look amazing w/the original cabinet color which actually look like they have a greenish hue on camera - looks like the slats were meant for that kitchen! Not a huge fan of the bright white backsplash or the bright green cabinets & brass knowbs (sorry!) I just think a more sagey green would flow a bit better & a bigger handle at least on the bottom cabinets - but I know renter friendly is often limited...&...you always make it come together Tina...so...can't wait to see part 2~~
That green is gorgeous
I did the contract paper over tile in my last apartment and loved how it looked. It really just looked like tile. You just have to go really slow and be meticulous. It took me a while but it totally works and is definitely the cheapest option. It's easier to use the bottom as a guide and then use a blade to clean up the top.
I own my home, but I'm trying to budget friendly update my kitchen. I might just try wrapping my lower cabinets! Great ideas in this video!
Green contact paper for the sides of the island would be *chefs kiss* to tie in the lower cabinets
I actually like the original backsplash, I wouldn't change them but let's see what the tiles look like when you finally get them. Love the wall paper on the bottom cabinets and the island panels you placed by the stools. I especially love the gold knobs, it makes it look high end actually and the frames on the fridge are gorgeous, up my alley. Great job, can't wait to see the next video with everything else finished. Great job Tina, so loving your work. You inspire me.
wow! I am impressed! Good job!
You got this girl. My projects literally never go right 😂 I’ve sat on the floor and cried more times than not. But the ending is so worth it and what I’ve learned the most out of anything is not to take any shortcuts, no matter how frustrated or impatient I’m getting, because the project turning out the best is what matters most! You’re doing great. It’s beautiful.
This is 1000000% so true!! And I have been right there with ya, sometimes you gotta take a step back before you get back into it 👏🏼
new subbed!!!! you are amazing with the DIYing!!!! Me and my family will be moving soon and you are just giving me ideas and just giving me life as to how I can customize and truly make the new place a home we truly love! I've been binging since I came across your channel!
You’ve done a beautiful job but I have one suggestion. I think you should put that green peel and stick wallpaper on the ends of the island. It would pull everything together seamlessly.
Omgosh, I can't even fathom how much work taking off the contact paper is going to take when removing it😅 Looks stunning thus far, so absolutely worth the work for future Tina😊
That panelling is amazing. I would love to see you paint some plants onto the odd tile on the splash backs, think it will really tie in with the green. I also think the light fitting looks nice but doesn't put out enough light and doesn't seem like your style. I'm with you on the grey, all these people rave over it on decorating pages but I find it so blah. You will put your flair on it Tina and make it lovely.
You should wrap the sides of the island in the green too!
Happy New Year, Tina and Brian! I am loving all these rental friendly changes ❤
Thank you so much!! Happy new year! 💛
Happy New Year 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾💖🥰💯💫
Tina, I love the green and the brass knobs! It brings such warmth into that sterile feeling kitchen. Did you ever consider putting paintable contact paper on the insets of the upper cabinets and doing the linen paint treatment. I think that would be gorgeous with the green❤
Sooooo fun! I super appreciate how real you are with sharing trying DIYs that didn’t quite work out. 😂❤️
Thank you for also sharing the fails too! Turned out beautifully!
Excited for part 2 👏 You're creativity is off the charts! 😮
The tiles are so lovely, it's the cabinet colors that need to be changed.
Cool! the makeover appreciate the creativity in turning a seemingly bland kitchen into a visually stunning and renter-friendly environment, making the video both inspiring and practical for anyone looking to spruce up their living space.
14:41 Contact paper: I would cut a pattern first before peelinig the backing & sticking it on the tiled backsplash - bottom first, moving up. Just a theory as I have no experience in this.
Brushed brasson green 🤩
Yay for the first video of 2024 😍 Those old knobs would drive me insane! The new ones look much nicer anyway so a fantastic swap ☺️ Excited to see the final reveal and the DIYs but it’s looking so good already 😍👏🏻
I live in a 1950-60's era 1 bed apartment. The 4" square ⬜ pink tile at 40" from the floor,as well as the surround of the shower. Couldn't handle all that pink. Took white plastic peel n stick /contact paper around the interior of the shower. Still see tile shapes, vaguely the color but a whole lot more relaxing to my eyes. Great job so far on the makeover.🥶🖤🔔👍
Wonderful start to a new year, Tina! All the best to you and your hubby in 2024. Loved the creativity in this new project 💫
Tina I think if you spray a water/Dawn combination on the tiles, you give yourself the ability to adjust the contact paper. I can’t remember if it is a 50/50 split but I am certain you can research.
Wow love it
Lovely work so far! The green is a really nice touch against the grayness of the kitchen 🪴
Your work is awesome!
How easily the island cover up went with command strips shook, the green contact paper on the cabinets SHOOK, the little frames?? on the fridge??? SHOOOOK. Also whoever left the bottom of the island like that and installed those knobs.... jail immediately. Also also I think we can all agree that even tho the kitchens not finished we're just happy you posted (':
Love the green 🫶🏽
Happy New Year, Tina and Brian! I’m in love with the two-tone kitchen! The decorative slat wall panel looks amazing. Can't wait to see the final look. 😊
Already looks so much more homey and warm. Love it...especially the lowers. The color is amazing.
Dang! Lovin those wooden panels
Love the green contact paper on the cabinets. My cabinets are from the 80’s and are in bad shape. I can’t afford to have them painted. This contact paper might be an option for me. There is a groove cut into the doors. I don’t know how that will affect the contact paper. Your kitchen is looking great.
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT so far! You are so talented! I’m about to start my kitchen refresh in about two weeks. I have a couple of projects I have to finish before I get started. I’m painting all the cabinets, hardware on cabinets, diy-ing my back splash, painting my countertops(maybe), and getting new flooring. Prayers please, that it turns out. You make everything look so easy, I hope I can be as ecstatic over my kitchen refresh as I am yours.
Thanks for sharing your projects Tina, I always enjoy seeing them and learning so much from them. I love the way it’s looking so far 🎉
I just watched your video from two years ago doing a kitchen update so I had to look at your channel and see if you kept the kitchen and looks like you have moved and now giving your new kitchen some charm.I am a new sub and look forward to seeing more of your videos!
I actually love the original tile. Specially now that you added the green below and new knobs
I would also do green on the island’s sides as it is on the lower part of the kitchen ;)
You should do the island green too! The side parts and the front!
Happy New Year Tina and Brian. I really enjoy your Sunday videos it completely make a difference on my weekend 😊
Love it! So far so Great!!!!
Oh wow ! So far it’s looking great ! Can’t wait to see the reveal I just know it will be beautiful cause everything you diy turns out beautiful !
I have green lowers with brass handles and white uppers with crystal knobs and I LOVE my kitchen, I can’t wait too see yours finished!
Love the little frames on the fridge, a tiny picture wall ❤
Tina you are so awesome you are like a professional designer who teaches a lot of different decors, your color choices and great I can keep on watching more and more videos to get some great ideas from you thanks for sharing this important video with us subscribers ❤❤❤it
I think I love the original backsplash.
I'm always so happy when I see that you uploaded a new video. It makes my day way better. ❤️✨
Such good changes and helpful products I've never heard of! Thank you for sharing your creativity, hard work, and research with us. Happy New Year!
Tina, you have the patience of a saint! Great job. Happy New Year 🎉
Nice! The green would look really nice wrapped on the sides of the island as well!
Look great. Going to try changing the handles in my kitchen 😊😊❤❤
I’m both a landlord and a renter. As a landlord, I would be very leery of allowing stick-on tiles and contact paper because I personally have not found either that actually come off cleanly. Using command hooks is good, however.
As a renter, I swapped out the hardware (I brought one of my old pulls to the store to check width of holes). This quickly and inexpensively changed the look from painful (thin) dark brass to comfortable (thicker and rounded) brushed nickel. I also added color through hand towels, accessories, and a framed painting on one wall (it greets me whenever I walk into the kitchen).
🎉Happy New Year!!🥳 💗💗 love, love how the kitchen is going,and great job loving the color green n the new cabinet knobs, those old ones are a hazard
You can command strip 16th inch plywood to the walls where the black splashes and mortar and tile right over it and just caulk around the edges. Or use tiny nails in the grout lines. that’s the best option and take it with you when you leave and fill in the blanks.
You are brilliant, thank you for sharing.
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 So excited to watch! Can’t wait to see how it turns out!!
The green contact paper looks great on those cupboards, it's too bad you can't do the top ones in something too. The brass knobs look so much better than the black but I'm going to tell you, I have that kind of knob and I get caught on them all the time. I would have gone for a C-shape or a cup pull on the bottom. Looking forward to seeing the whole makeover. Happy New Year!
WOW! WOW! WOW! The slat paneling just is VA-VA-VOOM! Amazes me how one little change can just elevate a room!
Couldn't you have placed a tiny trim around at least at the top on the paper just underneath the cabinets to hide the unevenness? Painted white-ish it would have corrected the unevenness and blended into the contact paper.
The teeny pic frames too cute and great idea! I should do that with my magnets so they more classy than just a magnet - more of a picture!
Love the green!!
Enjoy your day and have a fab week!!
xxoo
I just DIY Huntress, Sam used these in their Metallica guest room makeover. Beautiful turn out, if I do say so myself ❣️
Mee too! 😃👍
Your talent is soooo amazing!!!! I always look forward to your videos.
Thank you so much, Robin! 💛💛
Happy New Year, Tina! Love the progress video, the changes you made look incredible so far! Such a dramatic difference on the island in a sort time, bravo. For a new tool idea, not sure if you've used a lathe before for wood turning. Maybe there is even a class near your town where you can try it out!
I was wondering if you could use the wood slats on the upper cabinets too, I feel there is a lot going on now in colours, styles and materials. Also, the grey backplash might look great when the cabinets have a different colour/style. The white peel and stick tiles give a very stark contrast.
Love love! ❤
Outstanding Tina
Hey Tina! Love the "insta-panel" on the island!
Would have loved to see you try a painting technique on the paintable contact paper backsplash before covering it up w/ the peel-n-stick.
It's so funny to me that you haven't seen the wood slats done before. In the Netherlands they have been popular for years now, half the houses in my neighborhood has them somewhere in the house. Still love them though, I'm actually still looking for a place in my own home to put them 😛Just feels like USA is behind on interior design trends ;-)
Happy New Year, Brian and Tina🎉...even though we have a new kitchen, for 2 yrs now, you have inspired me to let go of some of the neutral color,(grays), and try a green shade like hunter green and camel colors...keep inspiring ❤
Yes, yes!! I know that will look amazing 😍😍
You could wrap your fridge in contact paper as an option as well if you wanted to tone down the stainless steel. I think Alexandra Gater did that once.
I’m so into this new slat material. Saw two videos this week using it and very cool!
The island looks so nice with the paneling design. I also am a green lover so the lower cabinets look great! Can’t wait to see the finished project. 🫶
Fantastic changes!! Happy 2024!
To be honest... I loved your gray kitchen lol
Anxious to see the new tile!!! Beautiful
Love the slat panels, the green and gold, all of it! BUT as difficult as it may be, I don't think you should leave the top cupboards grey... i just feel like it clashes too much with your style and personality, you know. Two-tone looks good, but just not grey 🙈 Can't wait to see what you come up with for the rest !
Happy blessed New Year, team TB!❣️
Thank you so much!! 💛
I love the paneling! The green peel and stick tiles would have looked so nice with the grey cabinets and wood paneling. I think the white is just too white IMO. But it’s all trial and error. Love your channel you give great inspo!!
I love it!!!! But I also really liked the green backsplash option 😍😍😍😍 But I agree that for your space white was a better choice 🥰🕺🏻🕺🏻🕺🏻 cant wait for the next part!
So pretty!
A little museum wax goes a long way 😅 also if you’re using it on wood, make sure it is finished/painted wood because it can stain porous materials. Love the contact paper on the cabinets!!
Your talent and projects are terrific. I am curious when you move how long it will take to re-boringize your apt.
I’m not a renter but I change my mind so damn much that these tips work great for me. ❤
Looking great
It's personal taste, but I would have left the tiles - they are beautiful and seemed to look more quirky with the green cabinets, as opposed to geometric with the grey - and concentrated on the cabinets. If it were possible (and I appreciate you wouldn't want to make more holes), I would have tried to use drawer pulls of some kind on the bottom, rather than knobs, but I loved the brass and the photo frames, and the slatted panel on the island was fabulous!
