When I posted a photo of my kitchen on social media 📸, the reactions came quickly: mockery 😂, laughter ðŸ¤, harsh comments… I knew it was outdated, but I didn’t expect such a flood. However, I had a plan 💡.
To show you the result of this transformation, I invite you to check out the before-and-after photos below 👇. You’ll see for yourself the drastic change my kitchen underwent, from floor to ceiling. 👇👇👇
Today, this kitchen is nothing like the one people mocked. With a limited budget but a clear vision, I transformed it from top to bottom. Painting, reclaiming tiles, smart adjustments… Every detail was rethought.
The upper cabinets, poorly fixed, weren’t part of the final project. However, an unexpected problem arose: tiles were missing at the top of the wall. Fortunately, they were hidden behind the fridge.
I came up with a somewhat crazy idea: to reclaim and reuse those tiles. My father, always patient, helped me with this task. We even found more than we needed, but in trying to remove the glue, I damaged one.
After a good wall smoothing and a coat of white paint, the room finally came to life. Gone was the dark and suffocating tone, replaced by light and freshness.
The mockery? It gave way to admiration. Those who mocked me at first are now the first to congratulate me. It goes to show, you should never underestimate a good dose of determination and a bit of elbow grease!
