Catherine G. took re-claimed chic to the max with this inexpensive kitchen makeover on a $400 budget! Great job, Catherine.

 

(Left) Before

"A recent move to a wartime cottage with little money to decorate or do improvements inspired me to makeover the kitchen as inexpensively as possible since it was the home's one small bathroom that really needed a pricey professional renovation. I set a budget of $400 to include all paint,building supplies, glass and new hardware. I came in just slightly over budget ($27) because I needed to order the bin pulls from the US to accommodate the specific, not standard width centre to centre spacing of the existing hardware holes for the four drawers. I am happy with the results and as a result have been able to reno two-thirds of the bathroom to date."
