From Oak to Over the Top!
There’s nothing I love more than wine, Ryan Gosling, Cornuts, making a small room look bold and beautiful and this wee kitchen satisfied in a BIG way. But here’s the deal – I only have 2 photos. However, this kitchen is so friggin’ gorgeous that I just HAD to share, even if all you get is a before and after – IT’S WORTH EVERY SECOND!
Before, it was functional and tidy, but no screamin’ glory. Orange-toned oak, pinkish granite and serviceable vinyl flooring…
After, FREAKIN’ HALLELUJAH!
I know, I wish there were more photos too, but that’s all I could pull together for you. Now, let’s chat about what they did…
- New lower cabinets painted Sherwin Williams Gauntlet Gray
- New upper cabinets painted Sherwin Williams Pure White
- New vinyl plank flooring
- White subway tile with 2 floating shelves
- White quartz countertop
- They took the undercabinet light and moved it higher to create more of a feature
- And NOTE that they filled in the space ABOVE the cabinets – mad love
And note the detail of the empty drawer space – genius! Just joking, it just wasn’t installed yet.
I KNOW, I wish there was more too! But that’s it today – just a quickie.

An Oak Kitchen Remodel with White Dove
Love the gauntlet gray cabinets on bottom and bright white up top, as well as the subtle wall color with the flooring. Nicely done. Bet they are thrilled!
Love it! Any info on the flooring, love the brown gray color of it with the guantlet gray.
Oh, Robin, I wish I did – hopefully the owners will read this and let you know!

Beautiful, Kylie. It’s amazing how a few simple changes can make such an impact! I would love to know what brand of flooring you used.
Thank you Connie!
Great example of making a soffit look great. Very nice.
You’ve touched a bit on “Double Cathedral” cabinets before. Do you think that painting just the center panel, or just the outside area, might make the cathedral affect look novel instead of “trying to be up-to-date” and failing? Mine are paler kind of yellowish honey and thought White Dove would be good.
Hi Sue! If it were me, I wouldn’t – I think it would only highlight the feature and while it would make it unique…I can’t say that it would be a GOOD unique. I’d be inclined to keep it all the same 🙂
I LOVE the clean look of white upper & gray lower cabinets …with white quartz countertops. But I’m wondering if we are near the end of the gray & white era? I would like my refinished kitchen to be in style for the next 15yrs 🙂
This looks fantastic! I love the colour choices.
