A Romantic Dream Kitchen

My friend Staci has a big, beautiful home, but her kitchen felt dark, dated, and full of wasted space. From the very beginning, I could see the potential—but I also knew it would take some big changes to bring her vision to life. Walls came down, windows and doors were replaced, and little by little, the transformation unfolded.

Working with Staci was such a joy. Her sense of style was impeccable, and she knew exactly what she wanted. At the same time, she was easygoing, happy, and always open to new ideas. That combination made the process not only smooth but also really fun.

No detail was overlooked in this renovation. Gorgeous American-made cabinets, stunning natural stone countertops, high-end appliances, a spacious sink with two faucets, and the most dreamy backsplash all came together to create a space that feels warm and elegant. One of my favorite changes was installing a large new window above the sink, flooding the kitchen with natural light and making it feel open and inviting.

The end result is nothing short of a dream kitchen—romantic, functional, and designed to be enjoyed every single day.
