Kitchn reader Cecelia and her family live in a 1918 stucco Mediterranean Revival raised-basement home in the Broadmoor neighborhood of New Orleans. Since 1918, it has undergone two significant renovations, the second of which occurred after Hurricane Katrina. The renovations weren't terrible, but they didn't make good use of the space — the setup didn't even have room for a kitchen table! So after she bought the home, Cecelia did a complete renovation of the space to open it up and bring out its true potential. See her 'After' photos below:

Paint is a powerful tool, as this kitchen makeover proves. As Nina of Swanky Swell told us, when she took on this project the kitchen was a standard builder's kitchen with lots of orange-toned wood — pretty flat and uninspiring. But the appliances were still in good shape and she needed to keep the overall costs down. So rather than gut the whole kitchen, she just focused on updating three major areas. See the 'After' photos below:

Kitchn reader Stephanie recently sent us her budget kitchen remodel, and we were so impressed we had to share it with you. Although she did have natural light coming through the skylight, her 'before' kitchen was a little dull and colorless, and certainly not the space she'd imagined! So, with a budget of under $4000, she completely transformed it into a warm, welcoming place. See the 'After' photos below:

If you followed along with Faith's kitchen renovation, you already know about Semihandmade, the LA-based company that makes custom fronts to fit IKEA kitchens. She said ordering from them was "the single best decision" she made through her entire kitchen renovation process. High praise indeed! If you're new to this company, here's what you need to know:

When you first glance at this kitchen, you think the walls are painted black. But what you're actually seeing is black tile — floor to ceiling tile, to be exact! Love the look?

Kitchn reader Cathy was not a fan of her outdated 1980s kitchen. The layout was terrible and it had hardly any cabinets. But she lived with until she could afford to renovate, which finally happened after she refinanced her house. Her renovation is pretty spectacular, in no small part because she tracked down most of her dream elements — a 48" Viking range, a French door refrigerator, mahogany and Carrara marble countertops! — on Craigslist and cut and chopped her way to a custom kitchen design, all without the help of a contractor. 

I've been sharing my kitchen renovation with you over the past couple of months (see all the posts and the progression here). Today's finally the day: the big reveal! Here are some photos of my kitchen as it is today, after all the research, sweat, and dust. We are thrilled and feel so lucky — hope you enjoy the peek!
