Traditional Kitchen with French Bistro Flair

I’m excited to share this recent kitchen remodel!

Starting with the floor plans… the clients initially were interested in a “pull & replace” scenario (pulling existing items out and putting new back in the same spot). But because walk-in pantries are often not the best use of space, we convinced them to consider an alternative layout that reduced the pantry closet size. The outcome: a larger kitchen with more organized pantry storage and a bigger island.

Here’s the Before:

And the After:

Aside from the layout change, we also updated the look. After exploring several different styles, the clients settled a sort of french bistro theme with white cabinetry accented by pale yellow and a provincial blue.

Here’s the kitchen before:

And here’s the kitchen now:

We integrated antique / matte brass finishes, fireclay sinks, glass tile backsplash, and the new Pental Calacatta quartz countertops to complete the look.

We incorporated these tiles into the backsplash – they tell a personal story about the client and their pharmacy background.

And the final finishing touch was the new upholstery fabric for their dining set. We found the perfect fabric from Robert Allen that coordinated with the colors and perfectly accentuated the lines of the dining chairs.

Upholstery Class Success

One of these days I’ll be able to show you my finished product from upholstery class (the unfinished chairs are patiently sitting in their spots in our dining room, begging for attention). But in the meantime, here’s an even more amazing project by Susan over at Freshly Picked. I met Susan & her husband in the class and loved to see the weekly progress on the sofa. Almost just as cool is the time lapse video they created.

DIY project – Footstool

Nicole Zeigler — Sun, 21 Feb 2010 22:32:00 +0000

Last summer I took a beginner upholstery class and we all made our own footstools. I used a Michael Miller fabric (Feeling Groovy, color: spa) that I found on etsy, along with simple furniture feet from Lowe’s (I painted them a dark, dark, almost-black brown).

I’m currently in the next class and am working on 2 mid-century chairs. Will post these soon!
