We still have a post coming for the beams but other than that–this brings us to today. We couldn’t be happier with the way this kitchen turned out. I would copy and paste it in our own house in a heartbeat. Here’s how the Fullmer kitchen looks now:
And here’s how it looked before we started:
Before, the kitchen and dining room was crammed together on one side of a wall of cabinetry and the living room was on the other. We removed the wall and placed the dining table in the center which allowed us to extend the kitchen all the way into the previous dining space.
The left window remained the same size (although we did update the window!) and the right window was made slightly smaller to match and to fit cabinetry to the right and beneath. We used Ikea cabinetry with Semihandmade doors for the entire kitchen! It’s a great budget-friendly way to go, and we love the mix of fresh white (supermatte white doors from semihandmade) mixed with our own line of Semihandmade doors–here we used the Cove color which is a beautiful, durable light warm wood tone.
Here’s the before of the same angle:
I’m absolutely biased since it’s our own line, but the Cove doors really make this kitchen something special. We carried the wood from the pantry wall, to the island and installed two opened shelves on the opposite side of the kitchen that we stained to match to unify the whole kitchen. (Linked all the sources at the very bottom of the post!)
With a house full of young kids (and the sippy cups to go with it!) we were happy to give the Fullmers plenty of stylish, closed storage and upper cabinets. But it needed this breathable, open corner to balance it out. You can have both!
Another layer of interest that adds an understated, but important touch is the backsplash. It’s like your basic subway tile grew up. It’s varied and warm and soft and—ugh. I love it. We originally got it for the cabin kitchen, but were so happy to repurpose it here.
We took on this project shortly after the complete loss of our cabin to fire. Separately, but simultaneously, our friends were hiring out their kitchen renovation and I was answering their questions and advising them on the daily. Chris and I talked and thought, “Maybe a project would be good for us right now.” and we asked the Fullmers if we could do the renovation ourselves. They shared inspiration photos and I quickly got excited about the possibilities and drew up plans. We had the best time doing this kitchen and it helped lift our spirits and keep our minds occupied.
The tile sweeps over the whole backsplash and up to the ceiling where there are no cabinets. We even tiled the range hood which really helps everything blend in person so other things can stand out. A common mistake I see is trying to make everything a show piece. Supporting players in a room are just as important.
The Cove cabinets from our line with Semihandmade are definitely a statement piece. So are the White and Brushed Bronze Cafe Appliances. They are gorgeous and actually tie the wood and white together as well. Bonus, The Fullmers have been so happy with their performance too. Win win win.
The other show stopper is absolutely the chandelier over the island. It was a risk I wasn’t sure about until I unwrapped it and then have never been so sure of something. It’s common to put pendants over the island and a chandelier over a dining table but I just thought–let’s switch this up! And I’m so glad we did. It’s art, truly.
Here’s how the dining room looks with the kitchen.
One last before and after? Okay!
We came so far in this kitchen and we had the most fun doing it.

We attached boards to the back of the cabinet before installing, then mounted the junction box directly to that. Because that cabinet actually sits out from the wall a little bit we just ran a wire from a junction box nearby that was going to be covered (making sure all the wire connections were contained within a junction box) out to the new box.

Love this! Quick question on the Bedrosians Cloe White – do you feel it pulls the tones it’s surrounded by? It feels warm here, but I’m interested in using it paired with cool gray and black and not sure if the undertones will work or contrast. It’s not letting me order a sample online, so wanted to check before investing in a box!

I love it so much! The only thing that I cannot get behind is the amount of mixed finishes. I see bright matte brass on the chandelier, black pulls, bronze/copper on the appliances, brushed nickel on the sink faucet, and stainless steel in the appliances – too much for me! I think it’s the bronze/copper appliances bugging me the most. Yes they’re gorgeous on their own but I can’t see them mixing with other metal finishes well. Good thing I could never afford them anyways, ha!

I am in love with all the choices you made in this kitchen! I have a question about mixing metals. I am replacing my counters, sink and faucet and am looking to do something similar to what you’ve done in the Fullmer’s kitchen. My cabinet hardware is aged brass and my appliances are stainless steel. Can I do a polished chrome faucet as a stand-alone metal? It’s hard to tell in the photos what the finish is exactly on their faucet. I’m hoping to avoid anything brushed nickel or stainless steel.

AUTHORI usually recommend repeating a metal at least once in a room. Polished chrome could tie into the stainless though–that’s what we did in here

First of all, this is truly my favorite renovation you’ve done! It’s just SO beautiful in every way.
One comment/slight critique I have is about the dining table being parallel with the island…I feel like the island dwarfs the dining table a bit, despite the island seating fewer people. I don’t know if their space can accommodate a bigger table however. But on the other hand, I see a big plus in that the island can serve as overflow seating. Either way, still a gorgeous kitchen and space.
Now something I’m really curious about if you care to share, is if there was a previous kitchen plan the Fullmer’s had before you got involved. Just curious to see a mood board/or what other plans they may have had! And how that evolved over time. Think that could be helpful to us readers.

Love, love you two, Becki Owens, Lisa Furey Interiors, Schilling and Company (local), Sarah Richardson (no one does fabric like she does), McGee and Co. and many more, but I can’t afford most of the furniture/products they use. Yes, I bought Rejuvenation mirrors and knobs on sale, but I also bought a wonderful Target mirror.

I love, love your layout changes. The wall of pantry/storage is one of my favorite useful things I’ve been seeing in kitchens – we have a small wall clad with storage in our small kitchen and it’s great. Still not totally sure about the Cove color since it seems to pull pink, but I guess red oak is… red… so nbd. Great wood texture, though. And THE CHANDELIER. Sculptural is the word for it – great leap of faith that completely paid off!!

Gorgeous! Question about the windows–is the window above the sink a tiny bit off center from the sink? It’s hard to tell if it’s just the angle or if the window is slightly left-set. I’m in the planning stages of a kitchen renovation and am having the HARDEST time with the layout of windows, the sink, and the range. If the range is centered between windows, the sink is slightly offset. If the sink is centered in the window, the range is slightly off center between the windows. OR I could make the windows different sizes… It’s driving me crazy!! But maybe in real life, it doesn’t matter if something is off center by a few inches?

The kitchen looks so beautiful! How do the Fullmers like having the dishwasher behind them? From the pictures of their old kitchen it looks like the DW was in a REALLY inconvenient spot, so anything is an improvement, but I still just imagine water dripping on the floor as dishes are transferred behind them. We’re so used to dishwashers being to the right or left of the sink that considering an alternate location could add flexibility to the layout, so I’d love to know how it’s working in that location .

I LOVE this kitchen!! Really specific question to start: I’ve been staring at pictures of the cabinet wall for WEEKS, and I just need to ask..are the tall cabinets on either side of the refrigerator 24″ or 30″? I’m doing a full cabinet wall in the house we’re building (super similar to this!) and trying to decide between three sets of 24″ wide tall cabinets, or two 30″ + one 12″ (thinking that would be the tall cabinet with wire baskets for produce). The 24″ provides more symmetry, but the 30″ perhaps more function. What are these?

SUCH a lovely result – light, bright and clean and yet warm at the same time. Truly a job well done. There should also be a mention for choosing to use a bench as part of the dining table seating as this really helps to avoid the potential cluttered look that you’d get with all chairs (particularly as they back on to the stools).
Will you be giving a budget breakdown/total spend? (I know that you’re in a position to have probably got some deals, but I think that an idea of what it would cost someone else to replicate this would always be informative).

AUTHORI’m not certain we’ll be sharing a cost breakdown since it wasn’t our budget or money that paid for everything.
