Kitchen wall tear down

When Jessie of Cape 27 Blog and her family got their new home, they got right to work on renovations. Just two months after moving in they were making big updates, including opening up this kitchen that was closed off from the rest of the house. Take a look at what they did. They started by tearing down the wall that separated the kitchen from the rest of the living space. They also removed a bar-height counter that created another barrier to the kitchen.

They got to knock down an awkward wall, too!

It's done! I finally finished my kitchen upgrade. It took a long time, but it was worth it. First, a reminder of what it used to look like...not totally disgusting, but just too much orange and black. Orange walls, orange oak cabinets, orange oak floors, plus that dark grey/slate tile and the black quartz counters. So DARK! I had a Halloween kitchen. But now, everything is light and airy. Light grey and white....so clean and up-to-date: I have a few tweaks that I want to do at a later date…
