renter friendly kitchen makeover 

Hmm, your "before" is what I'm currently trying to achieve.

Hello. One good for everyone who is thinking to do this,before you apply contact paper,spray the surfice with water or mixture of water and dishsoap. This will allow you to avoid air bubbles coz water will push air out. Ive done lots of times this at any surface(vertical and horizontal), wood,laminate,etc. Advice worth a million.

I like the before cabinets

Omg love your tea and coffee jars! Very impressed with the transformation, wow what a difference! Well done! x

You did such an amazing job! I still cant get over what that flower art and two different doors 😂

Your perseverance & determination to keep going made me subscribe straight away! Love the transformation

It looks really nice! My favourite part is the Devotional dippers on the counter top 😂 well done 🎉

Great upload👍🏼 I would have found seeing(or even u telling us) how you overcame the tricky bits like the fridge/freezer doors/underside of top cabinets; what the costs/quantities/time line and usability/ cleaning of products are, really helpful since you’ve been using kitchen for a while though. I like your precision in the application 👏🏼

It was a lot of work but turned out beautiful. Great job.

Woowww! What a transformation 🌸💆🏽‍♀️😍😍😍 i’m in the process of renovating my kitchen and you inspired me even more, I mean that countertop😱 it looks soooo real🔥🔥🔥

You’ve inspired me to try some vinyl. Great transformation Teri x

Looks really fab!! Love your attention to detail (which I imagine you would need for this job!) 😊

Place foil or parchment paper on top f cupboards to prevent the dori grease and grime form accumulating again.

Scaffolding boards are also great to use for your shelving i got the brackets from b&q which looks like pipes x

Wow! This turned out amazing! Such a creative idea to use vinyl to cover the cabinets. Love your style! Thanks for sharing!🙂

Beautiful job well done

Excellent result...careful neat work... love it all... only 1 tiny thing... the shelving (with the scales) looks very cluttered...too many objects on it. You did an amazing transformation.😊😊

It came out beautifully!!! Hello 👋🏾 I’m new to the channel and I love it. Thank u so much for sharing and I hope you have a blessed day darling ❤️🙏🏽

You’re adorable!! And I love this kitchen makeover!! You’re so good friend!!🤍✨

First time viewer - you are very talented and very patient with your work! Well done! I was about to stop watching when there was no sounds which I would’ve done a voice over instead of releasing it this way, but happy I fast forward it to the part I could hear and see your beautiful result of makeover. You have me hooked 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

This is exactly what I was thinking for my kitchen! Thank you for putting this video together for inspiration. Where did u get your peel and stick tile?? It looks so real 😊

Just found your channel!this looks lovely!x

Pierce it and hairdryer it love x looks fab x

You could just lay a white linoleum down over the floor and calk around the edges or trim it with 1/4 round and just roll it up when you leave, it will settle and stay down. That way it does not fight with the cabinet color

Love it, great job!! :)

The work looks amazing! Great design, great results. Please excuse a couple comments in critique. Don't let it cast a shadow on the excellent results you achieved; this is just what I would have done differently. 1. I would have painted the kickboards black or a dark charcoal. Reason being that kickboards get kicked, so they show dirt, meaning you may be spending more time cleaning them than you would something darker and less noticeable. Also, if the kickboards are deeply-dark, they recede in notice while also giving a subliminal sense of the base cabinets 'floating'. 2. I would have run the counter application from the edge of the wall on down, rather than cut the counter backsplash separately and caulked it. Caulking tends to crack and leak, so it's good to avoid it when possible. If that crack had been one long fold, there would be no chance of liquids (especially spilled oils or grease, which would dissolve the contact paper adhesive) getting in there. 3. I would have taken the doors down to apply the contact paper. You can then control application better, including any heating required for better stick or stretch and easier and more accurate cutting and fitting of the contact paper. Also, it's safer than standing on ladders/stepstools/chairs while struggling with paper and tools. 4. I would have taken the peel-and-stick tile up to the bottom edge of the wall cabinets, rather than terminate in the chevron pattern. You could have created a line of horizontal tiles as a top 'capping' edge for the chevron pattern to die into by cutting out individual tiles and running them like boxcars. 5. The sink cabinet doors appear to be edged along the perimeter with a 1/8th to 1/4 inch banding that sits 'proud' (beyond) the flat surface of the doors. I have to wonder if there is a material (adhesive-backed corkboard?) available in the exact depth that could have been cut and inset as filler before applying the contact paper. 6. Did you consider doing the base cabinets in a darker or different color than the wall cabinets? Uniform color is fine, and this is a HUGE improvement from what you had previously, but I just wanted to know if you considered going beyond a uniform beige. 7. You did an excellent job and the kitchen now looks larger, airier, and more pleasant to be in. It really pulls in a lot of light from the windows! This will inspire a lot of people to do this for themselves. I'm speaking as someone with a background as a cabinetmaker, drafter, and designer of living spaces, so my interest and observations are professionally-based. I also feel there's no 'wrong' answers or methods so long as the results are safe and what was desired by the end user. And I must emphasize what an incredible job you did.

Nice. You have a good eye and I think your styling is similar to deVOL Kitchens. Quite good.

Just my opinion, but I think you are covering beautiful worktops and the wood cabinets are nice, maybe a new back splash and color on the walls would help, I like the wood

Can peel and stick vinyl be easily removed from doors, as it's a rental?

Don't ever do a peel and stick counter top..... over time it starts to peel off and look shabby

I have Indian friends who utilise a portable cook top outdoor to minimise the smells, because it will stick to everything.

What country is this.? UK SOMEWHERE. 🇬🇧 she mentioned hiring professional cleaners so shouldnt the landlord be responsible for his/ her cleanout when tenets move?

fab job! was wondering how much/how many rolls of vinal u used, as in, was it pretty costly, if you totalled up what u spent? just a ruff idea sorta thing :) xx

Loved your makeover but your. Using choice drove me nuts. 😂

When it comes time to take it down will it be able to be good as new ?

It would easier if you take off the outlet covers

How did you arrange things with your landlord to make the changes? Were there certain things you were not allowed to do?

I thought your “before” was your “after” lol

Do you put it back to how it was when you leave? Did you clear it with the landlord first?

Great renovation 👍👍 But couldn’t enjoy the video as the audio was bad…. Enjoyed watching nevertheless.

Which program did you use for plannninng??? That's exactly what I need for my living room transformation... Min 3:05

Νομίζω πως δεν το έκανες εσύ αλλά κάποιος άλλος...διαφορετικά θα μας έδειχνε το πως το έκανες και όχι λίγο πριν το τελος.....με υγεία να χαρείς την αλλαγή που εκανες

The sound is cracking xx

hermosa

Only the music plays in both L and R, voice does not - difficult to listen with headphones :(

Sound is horrible. Music is extremely loud yet can’t hear you talk unless I turn my tv all the way up. Love your style but had to click out because I got tired of turning to volume up and down.

cant really hear it

Faff? Faffy?

Your music is really irritating. But I like you and the redo.

Please speak up. Love your ideas

Not! Renter friendly. Renters cannot paint, screw in shelves, or remove permanent fixtures.

You certainly brightened up the room. And I know you did a lot of work to accomplish your preferred look. I hope you will take this as kindly intended. Using words like vile, disgusting and ugly as if they were facts rather than opinion can be off putting to someone who might have a different aesthetic than yours. Like perhaps the persons who chose and paid for the items or others who may have those things in their own home. Do you suppose?

Omg I would be so pissed off if my tenant painted and put vinyl all over my kitchen! 😳 would break their lease immediately!

Sounds interesting. Wake up and tell us about it.
