10 years ago, we bought a house that needed a COMPLETE rebuild. We had four kids, our youngest was just three months old (0 stars, do not recommend this timing 😂). We did not plan to do the kitchen right away, but eww there was NO WAY I would cook in there. So, we spent 48 hours getting the living room painted and old carpet out, then added a "kitchenette" space so we could redo the kitchen. 10 years later, it's time to redo. The kitchen has a lot of wear and tear. It was also a quick build on a budget so the cabinets aren't the best in terms of hanging on for the long haul. So, we're hoping to start redoing it late winter/early spring. Open shelves or back to cabinets is the question 🤔
