Cheer up a Galley Kitchen - Inexpensive


I love these colors. The white top cabinets. I think she could have painted the inside of the cabinets to match the countertop vs. the stained glass. I have seen the lower cabinets painted a hershey chocolate - and it is quite lovely.
Although she didn’t add any square footage, Meredith’s revamped kitchen lives large. The wallpaper she chose for the far wall was a last-minute find. “When I saw it, I couldn’t believe how perfectly it matched the countertop and stained glass of the cabinet windows,” she says.
DIY Tip: Tape up a sheet of wallpaper before you cover an entire wall or room. Live with it for a few days to make sure you love it. If it passes the time test, you’re ready to buy the adhesive and get to work. If you’re hesitant about putting pattern all over the wall, Meredith recommends framing a few smaller sections for a lower-commitment option. Enjoy, Beccie
