Did you tune in?! I can’t believe this is my life… I’m just a small town girl with big dreams. As cliche as that sounds, it’s true. HGTV here we come… I’m calling it now 😜
The Florida kitchen project is COMPLETE! #ElkayPar The Florida kitchen project is COMPLETE! #ElkayPartner ✨ Can you even believe this is the same space? (Swipe to see before! 👉🏼) It’s pretty incredible what a few cosmetic changes can do to a space. We added new flooring, painted the cabinets, installed a new backsplash, new counter tops and my favorite part… the stunning new stainless steel sink from @elkay_usa !We went with the Pergola 9” deep drop-in sink, and the stainless faucet makes such a statement! We were able to upgrade this space and get the luxury look at a DIY price! What do you think!?
