This video is part 2 of a kitchen makeover. This kitchen belongs to my design assistant Kayla. We had a wonderful time making over her kitchen, from replacing her lighting, adding Peel & Stick tile, undercabinet lighting, new accessories and decorating above her kitchen cabinets.

Hello, I'm Jennifer.
This video is part two of a kitchen makeover,
so stay tuned.
I am in Kayla's kitchen.
She is one of my design assistants.
This is part two of her kitchen makeover.
I'll put a link to part one in the description.
But in the first video, what we tackled,
the first thing we tackled was her peel and stick tile
that we put on the wall on both sides of her kitchen.
It was super easy and turned out fantastic.
The second thing we tackled
was installing under counter lights.
It lit this kitchen up beautifully.
So above the sink, there was a wood header
and Kayla hated it.
So Scott removed it and then that allowed us
to put a light above her window.
Again, this kitchen just started to come to life.
She only, her lighting was so low and so dark in here
that between the under counter lights
and the lights we installed,
it just brightened this entire room.
We also installed this beautiful track light.
So to add a little bit of color and pattern to the kitchen,
one of the things Kayla did,
she chose some beautiful fabric
and had some little cafe curtains made.
This is something you can do that is so inexpensive.
You only need about a yard of fabric
and they were hung on a tension rod with rings, super easy.
Take a look at this gorgeous vinyl rug, 36 by 90.
I'll put a link in the description,
but this rug was a game changer.
So accessorizing a kitchen can be really fun.
I like to keep things pretty minimal
and keep the countertops fairly open,
but yet adding some character with the things we choose.
This is something, this is an idea I stole
from my daughter-in-law.
She took a cake stand and placed her soaps
and a little towel on top.
Also, decorating above the cabinets.
I've got another video coming out just dedicated to that.
That'll be coming out next week
and I'll put a link to that below.
Check out the beautiful light fixture
that we installed above her table.
I love the patina on it.
It's got a little bit of mint,
which is just pulling that color
that's throughout Kayla's kitchen.
I get asked a lot about different lights in a room.
Can you mix the finishes?
And my rule of thumb is you can mix two.
I never mix more than three.
So we kept the bronze with the track lighting
and the light above her sink.
And then this one, we got the aged mint and gold look.
Now on her table, she has a beautiful floral
that she made herself.
Underneath, this is actually a napkin.
So instead of going with a tablecloth,
I went with a napkin.
I kind of like to have fabric on top of a table
and underneath whatever I put on the table.
It just kind of breaks it up
and just adds a little more character to the whole look.
I wanna thank Kayla for letting us invade her kitchen
to make this video.
This was a super beautiful makeover done on a budget.
Sometimes it's the littlest things
that can make the biggest difference.
