Since I've actually seen the space in person, it's so much more fun to see the transformation and know exactly what went where. Can I say that I absolutely LOVE, LOVE all that you changed and the choices you made?! Seriously, ah-mazing. What great work! I hope that you can sit back now and enjoy it. And yes, beachy colors. That's so funny because as I was scrolling and relaying the changes to Reed I was looking at your paint colors. The word I used for your colors was 'beach' and then I kept reading and that's exactly what you called it. I've got a hankering for new kitchen/dining color and the blue/grays keep catching my eye. Thanks for sharing all of the marvelous photos and your awesome remodel. I think I need to visit again to check it out. ;)Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16604810218733272554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5937303870758455964.post-77645562168436801682016-06-02T23:11:26.046-04:002016-06-02T23:11:26.046-04:00Wow, Colleen!

(The lighting was one of the hardest things for me to pick out too-too many choices, too difficult to picture in the space.

All the remodeling has been wonderful to watch. I know you must just love it now that it's more functional for your family.

And having just done a kitchen remodel ourselves where we painted the cabinets, I want to say go for it! It took some time, and patience, and about 3 coats of paint on every door, but it's totally worth the effort - and since you don't have a ton of cabinets, I don't think it'd take too long! But breaks between home reno projects are necessary for everyone's sanity. :)Hannah Gokiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00700388883523161435noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5937303870758455964.post-64229288330593021312016-06-01T23:24:46.102-04:002016-06-01T23:24:46.102-04:00That's amazing!That's amazing!Joanne @ Our ABC Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01058789135966108669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5937303870758455964.post-63814057873076438262016-06-01T17:45:04.351-04:002016-06-01T17:45:04.351-04:00It looks gorgeous, Colleen!

If so could you not sand them down and paint them white? <br />Another option, why not (in the future, money/time not withstanding) look at just changing the cupboard doors, for white ones.<br />It's looking good.

I have about 100 things to say so I might need to call you and tell you over the phone haha! <br />I love love love the kitchen dining area. I can totally see you using the island and the kids doing homework at the dining table. Lighting is so expensive but when it looks that good, it's like totally worth it! Great choices... so hard, I know! The light coming through the dining room is fabulous. And the pantry, desk and hutch are all great! And your old closet! I can't believe it's a mudroom = perfect!!! I am dying for a mudroom and the kids aren't even in school yet, but I can't keep track of shoes and diaper bag items as it is...<br />Okay, moving on... your bedroom! The closet looks great (I can't believe how awesome the trim is around the door - totally the style I wanted to go for) and I love the new tv and your office nook is perfect! I can totally see you sitting there blogging. <br />The flow of the downstairs is just so great now! You guys should be so proud! It was so special for me to see these after pictures because I can't even count the number of times I sat (I mean ate football food/chinese/cake) around the old kitchen table. I just love your house! It has always been such a warm and faith filled place and I love all the new stuff you've done! In a couple of summers, we'll have to have some sangria out on the porch! xoxoAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01408376397606181124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5937303870758455964.post-49127763570676482572016-06-01T13:15:15.659-04:002016-06-01T13:15:15.659-04:00Yes to painting the cabinets!

And yes, we just changed the light in our "dining" room (we use it as a play room except for twice a year) and boy howdy.

I'm obsessed with white kitchens too and am going to tackle some oak cabinets in our new rental home next month. Landlord gave me permission and I've been scouting Pinterest for ideas. I've heard and read that Benjamin moore's advance paint line is amazing for cabinets- it's self-leveling and long lasting. A bit pricey but cheaper than replacing cabinets. Either way, looks great!Shannonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18385125152722680152noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5937303870758455964.post-54204464281247424912016-06-01T09:52:50.632-04:002016-06-01T09:52:50.632-04:00Oh, that's beautiful.
