White Kitchen Tour: Guest
Andrea at Willow Wisp Cottage is giving a tour if her beautiful white kitchen.
Slowly I will be taking you on a tour of my entire home. Some rooms are ‘done’ (they never are truly done, are they?) while others haven’t been touched since we moved here 4 years ago. We have slowly been transforming our house into the home of our dreams. When we first saw our house, we fell in love right away. It wasn’t perfect, and it needed renovation. The previous owners maintained it beautifully, however, it still needed some updating. We also wanted to make it our home to fit our tastes and lifestyle.
The previous kitchen wasn’t terrible. It just wasn’t my dream kitchen. In part two of this post, I’ll share before pics as well as reno pics and hints. For now, I present to you, our kitchen:
I had always wanted a classic white kitchen. I love it!
As you’ll see in part 2, we changed our lighting, flooring, cabinets (not just the doors), layout, countertops and appliances. It was pretty much an overhaul!
I love the Tiffany-style pendant lamps. Soooo much better than the previous 80’s era sunshine ceiling.
This is a peek at the corner cabinet. I am still working on making the interior display fabulous! Stay tuned for my progress!
A peek into our dining room built in. I designed it to match the style of the kitchen cabinets. The window above is at an awkward height, but it is a dark room, so I didn’t want to close it in. I love how this turned out. It displays my inherited china and glassware so beautifully. It has a lot of needed storage too.
white. It makes it so bright and inviting,
don’t you think?
>It's really pretty! Love all the drawers!
>Thank you so much for featuring my kitchen. It was such a nice surprise! I visit your blog daily, so it is an honor to be featured =)
>What a beautiful kitchen. The first things that grabbed me – love the dark wood of the island against the white cabinets. Love love love the slate back splash.
It's a gorgeous update!

>Beautiful kitchen! Love the combo of white cabinets with the dark wood island : )
>Beautiful kitchen! Love that you used your Gran's bean pot too! Thanks for sharing.
So beautiful! We have natural slate backsplash and are looking to replace the grey/green Formica with granite. Do you know the name of the granite you chose? It would be perfect for us (we also have black appliances)!
I love the dark island….could you tell my what wood/color you used?
