Before and After Pictures of our Westervelt Kitchen Remodel


Here's a before picture showing "the view" from the dorm entrance down to our apartment.  (We go down the stairs to get to our main living area of kitchen/living room/office and such.  Then the upstairs is all our families bedrooms.)
This is the new view from the dorm entrance down to our apartment.  (This picture was taken from the same spot as the above one, just zoomed in a little different.)  I really like being able to see the guys enter the dorm while standing in my kitchen!

This is a before picture again, showing the old view from the living room looking towards the kitchen.
And here is the after shot from the same angle.  We love the openness of it!  I enjoy being able to be in the kitchen and still see what is going on in the living room and dining room!
Before picture... from our front door looking into the kitchen.
After picture, taken from the same spot... We were able to take out the entire wall between the kitchen and dining room.
Before picture...this is our old kitchen.  They took out our old cabinets and made completely new ones.  
Now our upper cabinets go all the way to the ceiling.  Back behind the boys to the left, is a new addition to the kitchen as well.  It used to be a closet with 4 shelves, we turned it into a bake center.  I love having all my baking supplies in a back area so it doesn't look quite as cluttered in the main area of my kitchen.  Our dorm guys use our kitchen a fair piece as well, they cook a lot of noodles!
