Updated Kitchen Cabinets

updated kitchen cabinets with wallpaper


Guys. I'm so excited to announce...(drumroll, please)...we have kitchen cabinet hardware! In case you're just now visiting Home Made Modern, it's been 2 years, ya'll. Two years of trying to open drawers with no handles. (See our journey here, here, and here.) Last weekend, I finally painted the drawers and doors and installed my shiny new cabinet pulls courtesy of D. Lawless Hardware. Read on for an easy and cheap way to update your kitchen cabinets!

But I'm getting ahead of myself. Awhile back, I used bead board wallpaper by Allen + Roth to cover the inserts of our cabinets. There was nothing structurally wrong with our cupboards. They were just very '70s. Pretty plain with outdated hardware. Since we were (are) on a budget, we decided to save them and just update them a little. So I wallpapered them, and they stayed just like that for awhile, collecting finger smudges and devoid of hardware.

Finally, I found the time to clean them with Clorox wipes, and paint them with Sherwin Williams paint in Sea Salt. Wow, the color we chose wasn't much different than the white that was on there already, but it's not as stark and just looks so much better.

Finally, I installed the jewelry: brushed nickel pulls from D. Lawless Hardware as well as new hinges. (If you haven't shopped there for cabinet pulls and knobs yet, you should! They have a great selection and the prices are awesome.)

There you have it. An inexpensive, but very effective IMO, way to update your kitchen cabinets. We're on the home stretch now, I think. Just a couple more things to do in our kitchen!

You may have a holiday party or two to attend in the next couple of weeks...or maybe you already went and showed up empty-handed. Here are some handpicked hostess gifts that go beyond the ubiquitous bottle of wine. Show up with one of these, or send one along post-party with a thank you note, and you're sure to be invited next year! Keep in mind that many of these shops have "Gifts Under $25" collections, so if you don't find what you want here, browse a bit more. And finally, do yourself a favor and stock up! I made sure to include really reasonably-priced things so you can buy in multiples and not break the bank. Haitian Spirit Recycled Steel Ornaments --The Hunger Site Store (every purchase from this site helps fight hunger) Sassari Napkin Rings --Crate and Barrel Wine Cork Candles --Vat 19 (I know I've handpicked these before...I think they're that cool.) Owl Salt and Pepper Shakers --Pier 1 (they have lots of other cute sets, too) Set of Kitchen Towel

Peaches and Cream Scones

Good morning, sunshines! Sadly, peach season is coming to a rapid close, but before it's gone for another year, you've gotta try these scones! They taste like peach cobbler that you can hold in your hand! If you recall, I rounded up some great peach recipes for you a few weeks back, and this was one I just had to try myself. The recipe comes from A Latte Food . The only thing I changed was the amount of vanilla that went in the glaze. I decreased it from 1 T. to 1 tsp. Hop on over to A Latte Food for the full recipe, then swipe up the last of summer's peaches before they're gone!

Blue and Red Valentine Decorations

Hey there! Happy Monday! Have you undecorated for Christmas yet? I have to do a decoration detox for a bit after the holidays. I keep the decor to a minimum, but around now, I start to think about Valentine's Day decorations. I think it's hard to work with red and pink since our house is mostly blue, gray and green. But these blue and red Valentine craft ideas would look great in our house, and maybe yours, too! via via via via via via via via via You May Also Like: Key to Our Hearts Valentine Art DIY Heart Crayons Grilled Chocolate Marshmallow Sandwiches Vintage Valentine Crafts
