I am pretty excited for our "Cottage Fresh" kitchen reveal. It has been a long time coming. There are still a few things to wrap up, but I thought she had reached a point where

My parents came to visit this weekend. My dad is a handy guy. I got my act together and had supplies on hand just in case he was inspired to do some d.i.y. for me {his only favorite daughter}. When we purchased our current home almost 11 months ago, it came with maple cabinets and an island painted navy blue and granite, lots of granite. I knew the custom cabinets were not reaching their full potential. Before moving in we had the cabinets painted Benjamin Moore's White Dove and I changed the hardware out to a combination of handles and knobs in antique brass from Restoration Hardware. The kitchen showed great improvement but the granite tile backsplash just didn't make sense for the classic white kitchen-look I was going for. This weekend, my dad installed a subway tile backsplash, right over the existing tile........yep, you read that right, we tiled right over tile..... Because the original tile was flush and quite straight, and removing the granite would have been laborious and have made a great mess....we chose to break all sorts of d.i.y. rules, cause we are rebellious like that {well not my straight-laced papa, but yours truly who took full responsibility as the mortgage payer}. The photo above is proof of our great rebellion! I chose to do a gray grout - I love the definition. What a difference $50 worth of subway tile from Home Depot can make! *** Now, for the winners of the Flea Market Style magazines.....
