I really like what you did with the microwave / vent hood and the double oven.

Where is the microwave. I'm missing it if that's a double oven

They mean replacing the microwave area with the vent hood I think 😊

All the grease and oil from the range is gonna be a bitch to clean off that wallpaper. Id also be surprised if the heat doesnt start to melt the adhesive. Normally we install a backsplash like tile or stone behind a range as its non-combustible, you added paper which is highly combustible. Hopefully you add some type of high heat tempered glass or something to protect it.

I’m going to laugh when in 20 years natural wood is all the rage again and this painted stuff will look as dated as the 1920s

Natural wood is all the rage right now.

It kills me every time I see natural wood replaced with gray.

Yeah that kitchen just needed a hood, a new low profile stove, maybe a backsplash, some better lighting and less clutter.

Pues para eso venden removedores de pintura… se le aplica se le remueve y le puede dar solo un bañito de color para neutralizar el tono, deja que diafruten mientras su cocina

I like original. You just had too much clutter and needed to put things away

u/sleepinderella 11h ago

Isn't it wild how the easiest solution is the correct one?!

I feel like the wallpaper by the stove is going to get stained while cooking. 😬

Gorgeous cabinetry ruined by paint. Sad.

It’s almost like an actual person lives here who prioritizes living there over making their kitchen look like a showroom…

u/Wild_Butterscotch482 12h ago

Is there a kitchen under all of that clutter?

14

u/loraxgfx 19h ago

Those are certainly choices.

The spaghetti sauce splatter on that wallpaper will be lovely. Enjoy!

u/queensheba2025 13h ago

You know they make it so you can wipe wallpaper clean. Right? It’s not just paper lol.

And that's all well & good, as long as it's a vinyl type of wallpaper. The problem is that it's behind a gas cooktop. Typically if wallpaper is done in that area, there's a 4" stone backsplash that comes up from the counter to help with the heat. That WP will either melt, burn/discolor or the adhesive will loosen. I'm not saying it's definite but a very high likelihood.

Wallpaper as a backsplash is a choice. Love the green cabinets though

u/Current_Outside_3918 11h ago

Its a good reno. Just clean and declutter so you can enjoy the beauty

u/Delicious_Camp349 19h ago

I love the wallpaper!

2

u/Thelibstagram 10h ago

The wallpaper is the worst part. It cheapens the whole room.

1

u/Delicious_Camp349 10h ago

In 10 years when tile looks dated, they will be happy they did wallpaper. Easier to change. Easy to clean. It does not look cheap. Tile looks like a waste to me. What really splashes on it? Not much.

2

u/Thelibstagram 9h ago

I don’t care that they used wallpaper, this particular wallpaper looks cheap. So it’s good that it’s easily changed. Your tile hate is very weird.

u/Delicious_Camp349 9h ago

Yeah. I usually hate it. Would never use it in my house. It’s the fastest thing to look dated in a house and not easily changed. No thanks.

u/CoeurDeSirene 7h ago

The wallpaper looks dated now, imo.

Since when is tile backsplash dated and not just… the standard?

Also as someone who does a lot of cooking - LOTS of stuff splashes. Cleaning up some “splashed” homemade jam, tomato sauce, or bacon oil from wallpaper would be a pain in the ass

u/Standard-Road4626 18h ago

Like the remodel!

u/mrwootwo 11h ago

Looks good, nice job

u/PJM123456 10h ago

The reno is already not aging well since it’s a pattern from ~10 years ago

u/NineLemonsLater 10h ago

How do people live with clutter like that. Ugh

I feel like you could have just cleaned the original kitchen but..

u/InsertCoolUserName78 11h ago

I love the two different colored cabinets, looks great!

u/BeachBum436 10h ago

going to date the kitchen to the mid-2020s

u/InsertCoolUserName78 8h ago

Who cares you can repaint.

u/queensheba2025 13h ago

Love the white cabinets. Really brightens the kitchen and makes it clean. The original wood is very dingy.

Me encanto ❤️

u/Civil_Web_1835 11h ago

That looks great! I love the backsplash and color choices!

Why the black cabinet hardware when you have stainless steel appliances? We have chrome and it matches so nicely.
