This is the kitchen that Ikea built. Well, maybe not built but they at least provided all the materials! We did all the building.
The cabinets & appliances cost $6,200 (tax & delivery). The counter top was around $62 linear ft. I believe the flooring was around $4-5 sq. ft.
I will be out of town next week on spring break but as soon as I get back I will post the exterior before and afters.
Faucet: Overstock
Sink: Ikea (not on internet, it's called DOMSJO) $299
Cabinet Hardware: Ikea, ANTIK & GREJ
Countertop: Corian (Home Depot, inc. install)
Flooring: Armstrong
Breakfast Light Fixture: Ikea
Breakfast Table: Ikea, Table, Chairs, Chair Pads
Rugs: Ikea (older, not available)
Cordless Roman Shades: Payless Decor
Appliances: Ikea (Micro, Fridge, Dish, Stove)

Whoa! I'm in love with your kitchen, and more than a little bit jealous. It's gorgeous! All of the details are fabulous, down to those fun striped rugs. Nice job!! :)
How fantastic!!! And I know this is a small thing to focus on when so much work went into this space, but I am loving those striped rugs. They add such a fun element to the space!
Love what you did. Every element you added looks divine. Even though it is still a white kitchen it looks dramatically different and warm. Love all the details. All of your hard work was worth it.
My best- Diane
It turned out beautifully! You did an amazing job. Now you just get to enjoy! Oh, love the split door in the background too!!!!

Oh, girl - AB FAB!!!!!!!!! Can't wait to see the rest. You are a miracle worker, as usual!
Ikeacredible! Love it. We were at the big Ikea in Schaumberg Illinois last week and I was drooling over some of there new kitchen mock ups. So functional.
I also love those rugs and if it would be okay I would like to take one of your images and use it in a future post on my love affair with striped rugs. Would that be okay?
Again,

What a great transformation! Lisa
Hi! Your new kitchen looks fabulous! Enjoy your New England Long Plank - Boston Tea laminate floor!
Kim at Armstrong Flooring
Oh!!!! It turned out gorgeous!! I am jealous :). Fabulous job!!! Love seeing all your projects!
This looks AMAZING!!! I love your dutch door and the lighting and the black hutch...it all. I know you must be soooo happy that it is over.
How are you enjoying the IKEA appliances? I've been thinking about using them.
Yea! Yea! Yea!
How pretty!
So, Christy - did you use the Corian "White Cloud" for your countertops? I know you had previously loved it, and wanted to use it. I, too, would LOVE to have it on my island - but for now, it's faux painted . . . but I still dream of White Cloud in my kitchen!
I love it! You guys did a fabulous job!!!!
Love it!
Whitney
AWESOME work! So pretty and fresh. I'm loving that dutch door. LOVE dutch doors!!!
Wow, This is marvelous ! Fantastic job, so fresh and clean, I love the brick just outside the room the contrast is wonderful!
Your kitchen is amazing! I love those cabinets. It looks so open and crisp and I adore the rugs you chose. Everything is absolutely beautiful!! I am in love with the little bar too, what a great little spot. :)
Looks lovely! It also appears we have the same dining set, Ikea Liatorp all the way :)
Wow, I am now a follower because it looks like our taste is very similar; white and minimal clutter! I love the kitchen!
Beautiful! I really like how you have the tall lamps on the counter. Makes a great statement.
Oh my. You know how every once in awhile there's a photo you see that eats at you? That you have to keep looking at? Your kitchen... sigh. I have been planning to wait to "fix" my tiny, 4-doorway-ed, 1970s kitchen until I can do it "right." But lately I have been thinking about just doing ANYTHING, new Ikea cabinets and that sink, sigh... You may have just pushed me over the edge. More, please. :)
So jealous. Love it! (The Dutch Door is darling!)
I love the new look! The wood floors and recessed lighting make a huge difference! :)
Absolutely Gorgeous! I'm now hoping that Santa will bring me new appliances this year...I know it's a long ways off, but you've gotta start hoping for these things early, right?!
Wow! Great job on the kitchen! I'm partial to white kitchens & yours is gorgeous!
WOW, that looks so great (love me some Ikea). I have identical looking tile flooring in my kitchen currently and really want your new look :)
Love it! I have been considering ikea for our kitchen remodel also. Your cabinets look great. Did you have to assemble them all yourself? If so, how long did that take and how difficult was it?
This is gorgeous!! Hope to see you at My Dream Canvas.
WOW your kitchen looks wonderful. I've been wanting to do a remodel too but I'm hesitant to use IKEA cabinets. I live 4hrs from one so it'll be a trail to get them to my house ... no delivery. Tell me how do you like them now? love them? sort of love them? thanks
Wow! it looks awesome! the floors make it look much warmer dont they. you have done a spectacular job!
I LOVE it!!! I'm so jealous right now! :) I shared your post over on my blog www.mommysreviewsandgiveaways.com
I love it! We are thinking of doing something very similar when we are ready to do our kitchen! Thanks for sharing!
It looks great! I really need to go to Ikea more often.
That is one funky chandelier in the before picture! What did you do with it? That's something that might have sold for a lot of money on Ebay!
your old kitchen was not bad at all...but the New...WOW!!! BEAUTIFUL!
enjoy your spring break
Great job! It looks wonderful! Such a beautiful fresh space!
Congratulations, your kitchen is great. I have designed and installed 6 Ikea kitchens for clients and they were all great. I am always amazed at the engineering of the installation. The first kitchen is about 7 years old and still looks just as fabulous. I know some are concerned because it is so affordable, but go for it. You'll be glad you did!
I love it! I'm in the last stages of my kitchen reno! Love to have you check it out! http://www.shabbyfrenchcottage.com/2011/04/120000-kitchen-makeover.html

It's beautiful!!! nice job!!
This is an amazing transformation! I am curious about the Ikea appliances. How are they in terms of functionality? Are they as good as they look? I would love to hear your views on them!
Your kitchen looks amazing! We are in the midst of an Ikea kitchen reno right now, and yours makes me want to get ours done that much quicker! I've been having a lot of fun browsing around your blog and I'd love to add a few of your images to my inspiration galleries and include you in a feature post. Let me know if you're interested!

What a great job, I have such fondness for Ikea, it's affordable and looks fab.
