Similar to our other kitchen remodel this week, reader Kristen writes in about moving into the apartment where her husband grew up. The kitchen held lots of memories, but was a little dated and in need of an update. Kristen decided to tackle the renovation herself and document it on her blog Casa Dolce Casa. Check out the updated kitchen — it’s a gorgeous change! We love the fresh take on the space, and would never have guessed that Kristen was a beginning DIY-er.
