    I love your channel. We're in the middle of a kitchen remodel after 23 years in this house. Rather than replace the cabinets, we painted them and bought new doors. We finally began installing the doors yesterday after being without for about a month...life got in the way after we painted. What a difference. The cabinets look brand new. Your estimate was spot-on. We spent about $2,000, including the new hardware, paint and supplies, instead of $5,000 for all new cabinets that would have been far more labor intensive. Thanks for all the great budget-friendly tips.

    I made sure my most used utensils were pretty and I have them in see through glass vase that has mid century look to it. I have it, my cooking oil (which is in a minimal looking white bottle with a cork), and knife block on a pretty cutting board. The cutting board has a really pretty blue resin detail. The elevation from the cutting board and mix of materials and shapes makes this one of my favorite and most practical areas in my kitchen. I'm happy to know I was doing a few Kiva recommended tips before even watching ❤. You're the best! Excited for more.

Fast forward to the design meeting and we ordered black distressed shaker style cabinets a cream taupe and black quartz countertop, all white tile backsplash and I chose copper hardware for the cabinets. I think my kitchen would be Joanna Gaines' goth cousin.

    Great tips KB! My kitchen is one of the reasons why l purchased my home. My cabinets are light grey with oil rubbed bronze hardware and a white quartz counter top. I love using wooden accents throughout my home to add warmth. I changed out the faucets and lighting throughout my home too to provide cohesion and flow. I have that same white utensil holder.

    New subscriber here. Love your videos! I like the decor on a tray idea. We just ordered kitchen cabinets for a house we are building and ordered flat doors for the same reason - I love to cook and wanted things to be as easy to clean afterwards as possible.
