2+ min ago (880+ words) When my boyfriend and I bought a new house this year, a kitchen remodel was at the forefront of our plans. Like the rest of the house, it hadn't been updated since the 1950s. The 50s-style cabinets were charming, but the small space wasn't functional for us. It lacked modern amenities, such as a dishwasher, and the narrow space felt claustrophobic. We set a $10,000 budget and made a few unpopular plans. We tore out the old cabinets (saving them for other home projects) and set out to design a more modern kitchen. Our budget was limited, and we spent about $10,000 on the remodel. During our design process, we made a few divisive decisions that made our family " and even a few kitchen designers " turn their heads. Yet despite the naysayers, we have no regrets about the design, and we love cooking…...
