Farmhouse Kitchen Makeover

January 27, 2016 By Karen Creel

We have lived in our house for over 25 years and it is due for a major makeover. The kitchen had old sheetrock that would crumble when removed, so we had been through two wall paper cover ups. I wanted it torn down to the studs and new sheet rock put up.

Farmhouse Kitchen

Our kitchen and dining room, are one big room, so this meant two rooms were unusable. You can see the old brick look linoleum (it seemed like a good idea in the 90’s), and the “pop corn” ceiling.  I wanted it all DOWN!

At one time, there was an old stove where the flue is.  We had an old round iron one there, but never used it.

A new wood floor went into the kitchen.

And bead board paneling painted white covers the ceiling now.

The island has a drop in stove, and the bead board paneling was used to surround the island.

New molding surrounds the walls that were painted and the farmhouse kitchen makeover is now complete.  All my flea market finds have found their way back into the cabinets.

This is a view of the dining room.

I had an old seed sack I found at the Nashville Flea market framed to hang on the wall.  It had been stored away for months, just waiting for my new kitchen and dining room.

This makeover was a pain for a month while waiting on it to be finished but I couldn’t be more pleased.  Now on to the living room!

A Quick Note…

Gardenchick is a place for gardeners, flea market fanatics, lovers of the farmhouse look, and purveyors of all things rusty!

I’m not sure when my fascination with junk began, but gardening was in my blood from an early age.  I remember my grandmother could throw a few seeds out and have the prettiest flowers.  Sweet peas were rampant beside the front porch.  I can see her now, bent over pulling weeds, and I find myself doing the same thing anytime I’m in the yard.  My dad was raised on a large farm, and even though he moved away, and we always lived in the city, he had a garden.  He had me help him  plant a garden in May before he died in August.  So you can see, gardening just comes naturally to me.

I can’t explain the love of rusty and all things chippy, but I have dug through more barns and sheds than I would like to admit to bring out a rusty wagon or old chicken feeder.

So, I hope you will follow along, and we can learn a few things together.  I’ll be sharing gardening ideas, my flea market finds, and thrifty ways to repurpose.
