I love your countertops. Taj Mahal Quartzite is my favorite. My husband and I chose it for our kitchen as well. We had two beautiful slabs set aside. They put our name on them, and when we went back a week later to pay for them, they had been sold! It was so upsetting. We never found another set of slabs that we liked, so we ended up getting Cambria Berwin quartz countertops that are also very nice. There is a lot of Mica sprinkled throughout, and every time I wipe down my countertops they glisten. It makes my heart happy. I really do love my kitchen, but every time I watch your videos and see your countertops I am reminded how beautiful that quartzite is. 🙂

[@chelseasummers2365]

The island color it looks amazing. Leave it as it is, don’t overthink it.

[@wendyriggles7589]

I wouldn’t change the island color. It looks great and creates a cohesive look between spaces. Great work!

[@NoseyFloridaGirl]

Beautiful! Quartzite is the best surface for countertops! Love the Evergreen Fog Island .

[@Mijah1016]

Two tier island is so 90s or early 2000. I'm so glad you got rip off it and the green color looks beautiful. I really like it and hope you keep the color. Amazing job you and hubby did and you guys are such a great team!! 👍

[@debbiemontford3045]

Looks amazing. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 I like the color of the island- wouldn’t change it.

[@MamaRoberts09]

I do love the green island. It was a good choice. Repainting the cabinets instead of resurfacing was great. Love your new look!

[@kenesh02]

The color on the island is stunning. Great taste!

[@bevmiller4671]

Amanda, hi, your kitchen really turned out beautiful. You shouldn't question your choice of your island color it helps with the flow of the house to tie the color all together. You seem to really enjoy the color and it looks so nice with your book cases. You have taken a house and really made it a home. Blessings to your family Take care.❤

[@amandaplayton1440]

I just love the single level island of ,I opened up your kitchen up so much and the color counter tops makes your kitchen so much bigger ..

[@IMOO1896]

I love to see couples working together on projects! Most of the time it’s either wife or hubby, but your tag teaming is refreshing.

[@toniridge9064]

I love the island color. I think it will always look a different shade since it gets more light than both of your offices.

[@ritarees3778]

When you see the start to finish here it highlights the difference you made to the kitchen and it’s absolutely beautiful 😍 xx

[@vickilewis9029]

I so enjoyed watching this video today. I can never say it to much the kitchen make over has made such a big difference to your home. The saying "Let there be Light" because it certainly does. I love everything that was done to updating the countertop, the lighting, and the furniture. Everything flows so beautifully. I so enjoyed seeing the kids jumping in to lend a hand. You and Kyle did a beautiful job and deserve a pat on the back. I enjoy watching you two working together. God bless you and your family and Thank you for sharing with us. Please stop and enjoy your holidays. I hope this text finds you in a peaceful place. Till Next time.

[@marielysanchez2604]

I loved the island color, it looks cohesive with the rest of the house. I love it! This is my style ❤

[@Smachel0369]

The island (and whole kitchen) is gorgeous! I say keep the color. Although, I’m sure if you paint it a new color you will make it look good that way too.

[@debbiejansen555]

I've seen all the individual videos but its fun to see it all together! ❤😀

[@jamiepratt9295]

I love the way your kitchen turned out! It has inspired me to paint my cabinets and do some other things to update and brighten my dark kitchen. I love the color of your island and that is doesn't match the cabinets. Thank you for always keeping it real and inspiring others to do better and it doesn't have to cost a fortune! You and your husband work so well together in these remodels.

[@laurarodewald2276]

The kitchens is beautiful,WOW! a real transformation. You both did awesome👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@johannagiacalone6270]

I remember the before and after. This was a lot of work , the tiles/backsplash looked really hard to me for some reason. You guys did an amazing job. Oh and about the tiling , that upscaled your kitchen soooo much. I can’t believe how much more beautiful it is. It’s incredible.

[@lizelleliebenberg2035]

Looooove the lighter colours!!! Oooh but the dust afterwards is workout in itself.

[@rhondamastropoalo2237]

Kitchen looks BEAUTIFUL but I agree with you on the island green,if you don’t LOVE IT change it . IMO I’d do very neutral almost white . Choice’s are endless as you know lol,looking forward to the next video.🤗✌️

[@loripretti843]

Single tir Absolutely Positively!!! God Bless Us All!!!

[@jacquelinewest514]

I so love your Reno’s. This was exceptional. It made such a huge wonderful difference. No 1 fan 🇦🇺

[@Chich8058]

It’s great to see how much you and your husband work well together, you get to learn at the same time, it’s a even more beautiful as a team ❤😊

[@kelleypaylor8353]

ABSOLUTELY love the kitchen now…. It was so gratifying seeing it come together… almost forgot what it looked like before😮

[@ditzy6014]

Single tier Island for sure. I love the way the kitchen turned out

[@rhondageorge3159]

I loved watching the makeover again. That was fun to see!! I definitely love the evergreen fog on your island .. I love how it matches your shelves. I think you picked the perfect color!! You guys are amazing and how you work together!!

[@carolynlulinski8593]

WOW what a beautiful change y’all made in this kitchen. It really is gorgeous. Great choices and every single change is amazing. Love it 🎉❤The single height island looks modern and fresh.The corner tops & back splash made the biggest change.

[@Esh486]

Wow guys, you did a phenomenal job! the countertops are just so beautiful, everything turned out gorgeous!

[@mirandamccoy6114]

It’s insane to watch this transformation! I remember watching each of these videos! I love your kitchen ❤

[@mclyle7986]

WOW🤩 That looks incredible🤩. I liked your other one too, but I love how light and airy this one looks. So much brighter. You all did a fabulous job. You certainly gave me great ideas and a good lesson on my kitchen redo. Thank you for always inspiring me. Blessings to you💖💖

[@marymorgan7674]

It looks amazing! I love the color of the island. I wouldn't change a thing.💖👍

[@rebekahschroeder7949]

I’m a two tiered island girl. I definitely see your point on maximizing the work surface, but the reason I am pro two tiered is because I like the way it blocks any dishes/messes from our living area. If I have guests over and I am cooking, I want everything to look tidy from the living room. For the same reason I like a separate dining room from the kitchen. However, I do tend to entertain more formally, so that style tends to dictate not being able to view the kitchen from the formal dining room. I love your kitchen, though! You’ve done a lot to it and all of your effort has paid off!

[@doreenward6800]

Still love the counter stool redo! And you’re right… the seat sanding takes FOREVER! After seeing your video I did the same thing with some thrift store chairs and used Beyond Paint…. Great stuff!!

[@BobbieJeanM]

I thought the “before” at the beginning was the “after” and loved it. The after is also really nice and tastes do change over time. That was a lot of work and you both did a good job.

[@blackeneddove]

Same! I thought the before was a very nice kitchen. But their after is also very nice.

[@leslievalenciano-lopez8887]

How beautiful! Everything looks amazing!!!

[@yourlovetoy]

I LOVE how handy you two are! I'm slowly purchasing power tools in hopes of learning how to do some stuff myself.

[@lindabrown545]

Oh wow your kitchen turned ou just beautiful. I love everything and would not change anything. Enjoyed watching

[@rondapendegrist1979]

Love your kitchen makeover...especially how light and airy it looks now. You and Kyle did an awesome job and as always worked so well together...you're a great team!!!

[@shireenbadirkhan4057]

Love the harmony in your work. Like all your renditions 🥰

[@judygass9114]

Awesome job ! You must be so so happy how it turned out ! Great job can wait to see what you do next !

[@joantuttle4575]

So beautiful. A great professional job. I am so glad I found you guys on you tube. I thoroughly enjoyed looking at your makeovers. You both are very down to earth and it’s all about your work not yourselves. Love that. I look forward to all your videos and will pass it along to my friends so they can enjoy also. Hope you have a great yr ahead. Greetings from Newfoundland 🇨🇦

[@lauraquigley6403]

Great job renovating! I also Love 1 tier countertops! I Love the way it looks!🙏🙏🙏

[@nancysalmon3333]

Love the way this transformation looks!

[@tinacorrell9930]

It turned out great, I love the beadboard.

[@jos-1994]

Hey Amanda and Kyle. To say that this was a labor of love, is an understatement. The transformation at every corner, top to bottom, overall is outstanding. It looks like a completely different kitchen. I prefer the 1 tier island which gives you more surface space and allows for your whole family to sit, eat, chat, cook and play. I agree about the color and that's from my vantage point and screen. The color seems to downplay the beauty of the island. I think a lighter, neutral color would serve it up in its true beauty using scuff proof paint of course, given you have stools all around. I love white dove which you used in your kitchen and fun fact I used in both of my bedrooms. Great job 👍🏽🙌🏽

[@mezi99360]

I don't usually like herringbone (it usually makes me think of the chevron prints from the 2010s) but I really like the way the backsplash turned out for you! I think it's the marble, it looks so soft, and you kept your grout light. It looks really nice!

[@lfuentes4098]

I don’t think I ever watched the kitchen makeover from start to finish. Thanks for the recap. Love the backsplash. I do like the evergreen fog on the island. Your right that it’s a little more blue green than the bookshelf but it’s still a beautiful color.

[@ruthhuezo1964]

❤¡Me encanta, el cambio! Ustedes son inspiración.

[@jeannethbayle2716]

It looks so great. It didn't look awful before BUT what a great change. Seriously awesome. Thank you for sharing.

[@carmeb.a7142]

Os felicito !!!!! Ha quedado una cocina magnífica y muy actual. Vale la pena el esfuerzo. Saludos desde Barcelona.

[@JuJuBee223]

I love this makeover! It’s so bright but still warm and inviting. Have you thought about adding height to your upper cabinets by building decorative lighted cabinet boxes to the tops. It would mimic the height of your cabinetry across in the living room.

[@susanqueen4628]

Turned out beautiful! I love the island color! Watching y’all do the tile makes me want to try it!

[@reneemoore3658]

For your house, I like the new island best. For our house, I like the split level island best, but ours is attached to the wall, so it's not out in the middle of the floor. Your house is absolutely beautiful!!! 🎄

[@ceviharris]

Love your renovation videos! We are coming up on only 2 years in our first home and there are so many things I want to change, but we live in an Condo so I don’t want to go crazy; not to mention how expensive renovations are. But your videos have given me so much inspiration, to do some simple cost efficient DIYs tackling one space at a time. Thank you for sharing!

[@JenniferSwift]

What a beautiful space, Kyle and you are amazing to watch working together. It’s all well worth the time and sweat to make a place you love❤ thank you for sharing your home with us!

[@kathylively1530]

Hi Amanda! I watched the original videos & watched them again!😉 I had forgotten the before look & it was nice to see the transformation again which is fabulous! I personally wouldn’t change the green color on the island as it pulls the kitchen together with your living room with the book shelves. You & Kyle work sooo well together & you’re both very handy with DIYs which I couldn’t imagine doing, I’d have to hire someone but it’s very nice to see you both working along side one another in whatever projects you have to do!😁 TFS again! Blessings! 🙏❤️😊

[@kathylively1530]

I also love the 1 level countertop on the kitchen island.😉

[@sylviatrevino7282]

This is one of my favorite videos ! You guys did a great job. And as always, love the music . Gracias

[@mccalleto7506]

I love the green on the island.....

[@debralawler-nt9si]

Its such a transformation hard to believe its the same cabinets the island made the kitchen gorgeous

[@sayub1264]

I absulately hate 2 tier island. We have the same issue in our kitchen. We have decided to cut it off and make it a single tier. Great kitchen renovation, Amanda! I really enjoyed watching the whole process. You both are very handy. Overall a very informative vlog!!

[@TracyHunt-x4g]

Beautiful. A dream kitchen to be sure. And I actually love the green island color.❤

[@TaniaCowling]

I have a two tier island with black granite very much like yours. I prefer a one level island. Trying to get hubby to change it is impossible. Lol. Your kitchen renovation is awesome. Watching this video on my television So cool. 😊

[@valorieviles3992]

Herringbone adds so much elegance

[@ThisCrazyLife]

I totally agree! Thank you!

[@valorieviles3992]

I think it also gives the appearance of a more larger space.

[@cack121]

We totally gutted (right down to the studs) our entire kitchen. Plumbing moved, electric moved, island moved....new ceiling walls floors cabinets window doors etc. New counters and even the skylights got replaced. Was definitely a bit stressful, but OH MY WORD I absolutely LOVE it and this will last us forever as this IS our forever home. Your kitchen came out so nice, we have similar taste too

[@cathleenweaver6483]

I watched all the reno videos and it's so fun to watch it all come together in this video. Such a beautiful kitchen 💜💙💚💛🧡

[@yaniracastro5883]

Les quedó hermoso todo muy muy lindo ese color de la isla está hermoso y mil veces mejor las encontré de la isla de un solo nivel les quedó preciosa.

[@wendybray2482]

It looking very pretty,love the counters beautiful

[@Carole712]

I originally watched this makeover as it was happening. You guys did a phenomenal job and your kitchen looks fabulous. I love the color of the island and how it ties to the living room shelves. I’m hopeful that you don’t change it. 🎄

[@Clevast]

Wow, your kitchen makeover is absolutely incredible! 🏠🔨 The transformation is mind-blowing, and I'm loving every detail. Your creativity and dedication shine through, making it look both effortless and stunning. Thanks for sharing the journey! 🌟

[@gooseygirl1]

I'm a team single tier island all the way. For one, it's cleaner looking and opens up the space, and for another, I'm short and tall islands hit me right around boob height. Not very useful for a shmall like me. LOVE the finished product. I followed every video of the entire process and so it was super cool to see the condensed version of the kitchen reno..

[@gloriaschember9177]

Grey lighter in color would look awesome and neutral to blend with your decor ❤️

Wow this is incredible Ur kitchen looks beautiful and I really love the island colour please don’t change it. It looks amazing with black bar stools. Fantastic job u two 🎉

[@michelleheeson9536]

Heyyyy !! I remember you and Kyle going and choosing your kitchen counters then doing all the prep work. Always thought sink area was good but changed my mind once you changed it and made it one level, great choose. ❤x

[@lovestosingalot55bodin7]

This is the first time that I watched your channel. You both did an amazing job. Amanda you did a great job with the herringbone back splashes. That was quite the undertaking; especially for the first time. Your kitchen would be magazine approved. I don't mind the colour of your island "fog green". Being that you have black chairs, you wouldn't want to go too dark on the paint. The bead board and new appliances and painted cabinets and L.E.D. lights all add to the ambiance that you were trying to create. I say a job well done. I am sure you are both proud of yourselves and why not and the kids love it too! Enjoy the fruit of your labour. from Canada. Happy New Year.

I really enjoyed watching you transform your kitchen. It turned out amazing. It’s amazing what you can do when you set your mind to it. It’s also a great bonding time with your spouse as well. Having said all that my biggest concern was when I saw both of you using and leaning over that saw that was on the ground. Oh my goodness, my heart was palpitating. Please please please raise it up higher. Being on the floor someone could trip and fall on it and that was freaking me out.

[@robinmcmillin-of5ff]

I love the makeover you did on your kitchen! Seeing it all over again makes the urge to redo mine even stronger but not sure that’s in the finances anytime soon 😢. As far as the island I would have to agree with you on liking a one level better but that’s just my preference. I like the green you painted the island as well but I also feel we are just looking at it in a video and you are the one that has to live with it day in & day out so if you feel it needs to be repainted then that’s what you should do!
