Pantry Remodel – Lets Start With Drawers!

Kitchen + The Grayson House

DIY Expandable Kitchen Island + Building Plans

Kitchen + The Grayson House

We have a somewhat small kitchen, but we do have enough space for a small island. Of course I wanted to build my own island. I had thought about what it would look like for months. Originally it was going to be a lot more simple than it turned out, but then I came across…

I Deleted My Laundry Room Door

Kitchen + The Grayson House

*This post contains affiliate links* We have a very tiny laundry room that leads from the kitchen to the garage.

Paint Stir Sticks for Doors…What?!

Kitchen + The Grayson House

I built a countertop hutch with sliding pocket doors made out of paint stir sticks for the coffee bar, plus I built the cabinets out to surround the fridge and additional storage above the fridge for large cutting boards, baking pans, pizza stones and more. This was a high impact remodel. I loved building and growing my skills!

How To Install Stone Backsplash

We Lowered Our Bar to Countertop Height!

Kitchen + The Grayson House

*This post contains affiliate links* We had this bar top that just acted as a catch all. We had bar stools there but it wasn’t even a great bar because the countertop didn’t stick out enough so you couldn’t put your legs under it like you would at a table or a regular bar top….
