Everything old is new again

We just did a partial redo of our kitchen!  We don't do things like this very often, so this was a special treat!  I got the name of a great contractor from our neighbor and friend down the street.  She had a major remodel of her main floor, down to the studs, and she's fussy!  I knew he must be good if she approved.  
This is our vintage kitchen, c. 1950 cabinets (custom!).  We painted the cabinets white and the walls "Gatherings" (Magnolia paint from  Ace Hardware, loved it!).  And this is pretty much our whole kitchen!  (refrigerator removed for the reno)

After - glamour shot with mood lighting! New: sink, faucet,  quartz countertops, gas cooktop, tile backsplash, and floating vinyl plank flooring.  We are so pleased with how it all turned out.  It's like a dream.
Our contractor, Carlo, said he would have extra quartz, and did we have a vanity we would like to use it on?  Yes please!

Bathroom before - we have a tiny bathroom also.  A realtor friend told use one time that we have a "doll house". :) She also said she could sell my house in 10 minutes.  Our house is pretty cute, and in a terrific location - really nice area, and you can walk to everything:  church, schools, library, stores, commuter train, and about 20 restaurants.  


Here you can really see how beautiful the quartz countertops are.  Carlo also found us a beautiful new rectangular sink.  Again, we love it all.
