DIY SMALL KITCHEN MAKEOVER FROM START TO FINISH

[@diyhuntress]

I just wanted to take another moment to say thank you to all of you for being so patient, so encouraging, and so amazing throughout this past year as I renovated this kitchen. I’m so proud of the work that was done in here and so excited that you all are just as stoked as I am to see it come to life. Couldn’t do any of this without all of you in my corner. Thank you a million. You make dreams come true. Love you all so much! 💓

[@mawbell3]

Just went through all your kitchen videos! it looks UHMAZING! LOVE IT!

[@colleengould9114]

What an amazing transformation. It isn’t the size that matters. It is the attention to detail. You did an amazing job! Of course, dad helped.

[@diyhuntress]

Thank you so much! 🥰

[@cvonsutphen]

*Gorgeous* . Love the shelf on the side of the fridge. The sight lines are lovely, and even though it's a small kitchen, the island is everything and gives you a functional work space. Well Done!

[@diyhuntress]

Thank you so, so much!

[@bluecurlygirl]

You did such a fabulous job. I'd be darn proud of it if I did it too. You and your dad really are the dream team. It's been a joy being on this journey with you.

[@diyhuntress]

Thank you for being here! 💓

[@anticapitalisthomedesign]

You NEVER disappoint! Fantastic work 💪

[@diyhuntress]

You’re the best. 🥹

[@hollismorgan1399]

Sam!! This looks amazing! You put in so much hard work through some hard times and fun times of your life! Congrats!

[@diyhuntress]

Thank you so much for your love and support. It means so much to me. 🥹

[@letitiakiu]

the counter to ceiling backsplash is JUST SO GOOD!! this is the motivation I need to finish the floating shelves in my kitchen haha

[@millie8984]

Congrats on reaching the finish line on the kitchen. Looks fantastic. Daughter is in process gutting her kitchen and it does seem like it will take a year. Nice to know others have taken that long. Floor tile goes down in April!

[@diyhuntress]

Thank you so much! It really is such a big process. It’s okay to take it slow. I’m so excited for her!

[@chandracox6814]

I love a woman who can do anything and everything on their own. Such a badass! I'm working my way towards better skills. I just bought a bunch of new tools recently (jigsaw, circular saw, table saw, etc.) And I'm doing a ton of stuff to the house I just bought. I'm doing it all myself. Its so empowering!

[@naturalgalwilliams]

Hello friend. Out the gate, I love the relationship between your dad and you! I look forward to seeing the craft blossom into greatness. Many blessings. OneLove ❣️

[@diyhuntress]

He’s the besttttt.

[@janhunt6214]

The finished kitchen & dining areas are so amazing. Congratulations on a huge job well done!

[@diyhuntress]

Thank you so much!

[@nilakshiroy6]

[@jessicahites871]

Oh Sam it looks absolutely wonderful!! It's so spacious and bright now!! You did an excellent job on everything!! Just shows what a little heart, time and DIYing can do!!💖

[@diyhuntress]

Thank you so much! 😭

[@EmanuelYeotis]

What an amazing transformation. You should be very happy with the results. And I would also like to say your father should be so proud of you. Looking forward to you're next vidio.

[@suetillman1517]

This is soooooo awesomely beautiful. All your hard work is soooooo worth it. Congrats. Rest your backs. 🏠🏡

[@diyhuntress]

Thank you so much!

[@sharonkerchinsky9965]

It looks awesome. I really like how you hung your backsplash vertically.

[@diyhuntress]

Thank youuu!

[@moda78z]

Congratulations, Sam! It’s gorgeous! I’m so happy for you! 😍😘👍

[@diyhuntress]

Thank you!

[@leahstaska2515]

It is BEAUTIFUL! Very well done. Great use of space. Love the shelf on the side of the fridge.

[@diyhuntress]

Thank you! It’s been so helpful!

[@linjaysha]

Looks fantastic Sam! I've enjoyed every second of the process! Thanks for bringing us along for the ride. You and your talented, funny, fabulous dad are a great team!❤❤

[@MacT4972]

Sam, your attention to detail makes this space comfortable, stylish, inviting and home. I love your new kitchen!

[@justme5544]

Beautiful! Amazing! You have all the things, so it's perfectly sized for this home. Not to mention, it will be quick to clean up.

[@diyhuntress]

Yesss! Thank you!

[@prosie1968]

I think it’s a perfect kitchen for the size of your home, it looks amazing.

[@mikecolo2158]

Fantastic design for a small kitchen. Congrats on the finished project. Enjoy that space!

[@diyhuntress]

Thank you! 🥹

[@SimplyHandmade]

I know you keep saying how small but girl it feels so spacious in person. Seriously! I love how you completely transformed this!! 🥹🥹

[@953orion]

Fantastic transformation! It really opened up the space and makes it all look so much bigger! Great job sam!

[@lisacamilleri211]

I'm crying and I did t even do it. Such an amazing cozy little kitchen. You should be very proud of it and everything else you've done in the house.

[@diyhuntress]

🥹

[@xingcat]

Your kitchen looks FANTASTIC. It is in a small space, but it looks like you have all the room you need to put together meals, to entertain, and to live in it. I especially love the floating shelves over the coffee station and the fridge shelves. Both really make the kitchen look different than other spaces I've seen and they're very you.

[@LitleWujoo]

Looks Amazing. Thanks for taking us through the process and the reality of what goes into such a huge undertaking. Especially seeing your vulnerability and positivity throughout.

[@Stephanie-lg1cm]

Absolutely amazing!

[@diyhuntress]

Thank you so much!

[@dawnpakstas4650]

Oh my gosh! It looks amazing! Enjoy your house! 🥰🇨🇦 Well done❤️❤️

[@diyhuntress]

Thanks so much! 🥰

[@altheawood6656]

So warm & inviting. Love it all, Dani!!

[@diyhuntress]

Thank you!

[@jessicahites871]

Althea, this is Sam;)

[@debbiemoreton2372]

Absolutely stunning!

[@diyhuntress]

Thank you so much!

[@cynthiapm8149]

Love it! And that fridge. Question, why did you chose to face the island with microwave facing the dining area? I ask because we rented an apartment with one like that (no microwave though) and we'd bang our legs on the handles all the time since that was our main walkway. We eventually removed the handles and put them back after we moved.

[@jessicahites871]

She mentioned this in a previous video.. There's more room on the dining room side so they're not bumping into drawer handles when they walk between island and cupboards:)

[@DIYDanie]

What a journey - but SO worth the wait xo

[@diyhuntress]

Can’t wait to have dinner dates with you in this kitchen. 🥰

[@karenvandermerwe8721]

This looks amazing Sam! Well done!!!

[@diyhuntress]

Thank you!

[@aleisaetheridge8682]

I think this is one of the most beautiful renos Ive seen ,the kitchen ,the living room and dining room r just gorgeous ,truly gorgeous and so warm and inviting .

[@beverlyherring6595]

You have done a lovely job of making your living/dining/kitchen area compliment one another. Enjoy

[@random_hurricane]

Amazing transformation! Wow!

[@diyhuntress]

Thank you!

[@norcaldata]

Turned out amazing ! I love the microwave! Great job!

[@diyhuntress]

Thank you!

[@madelynvazquez9006]

Gorgeous, wishing you unforgettable moments in your beautiful home 🙏🥰

[@samanthavinson5030]

Hi Sam, Congratulations on completing the kitchen. It looks great!! You have definitely motivated me in building🧡

[@diyhuntress]

Thank you! That makes me so happy!

[@valeriehicks7050]

I have tears of joy for you young lady. Keep doing your dreams.

[@JennaMcCallister]

Sam, I am COMPLETELY freakin’ blown away! My hubs is watching with me, and all he could say was “wow.” When you started crying, so did I! I actually was really down when starting this video because some of my own projects were not going well, and you helped me ease up on myself and get some motivation to fix it and keep going. So proud of you!

[@iamcameronstory]

Incredible work! Congrats! 🎉

[@diyhuntress]

Thank you so much! 💓

[@loriallen6650]

My top 3 reno/design I ever saw. If I were to have my ideal 1st dream home this would be it inside & out. Very similar taste. You and your dad knocked it out of the ballpark w/ the bases loaded....WoW!

[@NanookiePookie]

Girl, you killed it!! It looks awesome! I love that you maximized a small space so that you could get the most out of it. Thank you for bringing us all on the journey with you.

[@MarcusTobe]

I was amazed by the results in this DIY small kitchen makeover. The step-by-step guide and budget-friendly solutions were incredibly practical. I now have the confidence to revamp my own kitchen, thanks to the inspiration and tips shared in this video.

[@beckymcdonald8040]

Wow! Truly worthy of a magazine layout! You did so much, with such small space. I am sure you have increased your property value astoundingly! You should be proud, Girl, it is stunning!

[@irmadiaz5928]

After all the refurbishing the kitchen making an open concept Area your decor looks excellent love the way it looks 🎊🎊🎊👍🏼👍🏼

[@diyhuntress]

Thank you so much!

[@trishare]

When you added the shelf to the side of the fridge it added such warmth! Loved it ❤

[@spazmat123]

It looks so good!! Congratulations 🥳

[@diyhuntress]

Thank you! 🥹

[@dmtn198]

A fantastic, inspirational remodel of the space. I've been watching from London, England so thank you for bringing us along with you on this journey.

[@diyhuntress]

You’re so awesome - thank you!

[@Tania689]

Great job congratulations

[@diyhuntress]

Thank you!

[@mallymakings2853]

WOW. This definitely has the WOW factor and you should seriously be proud of all you have accomplished. The only niggle is the microwave facing outwards into the dining room but that’s just my opinion and it’s *your* space so it doesn’t really matter. I think it’s all absolutely stunning and it’s certainly a home to be proud of. Congratulations, Sweetie. I’m doing a happy dance with you. xxx

[@evelyntobias8081]

I came on here to see if someone else had the same opinion. I was wondering the same. The only thing I can think of is that the drawer might not open all the way if it was facing towards the inside. Otherwise I think it looks fantastic!

[@michellejoly9914]

How beautiful! You have done such an amazing job. I hope it makes you smile each time you walk through the front door 😍

[@dominiquel7402]

Congratulations Sam! You can be proud of yourself. The outcome is spectacular. Wishing you a speedy recovery too.

[@conniepleasantnails]

I think you did a fabulous job. I like all of the use of texture. You made plain white Home Depot cabinets look designer level. Wood accents, green plants, stainless steel and really luxe counter tops. I also love that you hung a dark window shade. Your kitchen does not look cheap by any means and I appreciate how proud you are. You should be. ❤

[@lovingmayberry307]

It's awesome, Sam! 👏👏👏

[@kyslotgirl6581]

Totally AWESOME!!! You and your dad are amazing. Reminds me of myself and my dad doing home projects together. Love everything about your channel. Keep up the wonderful work!

[@MsTemptation]

Wowzers!! You guys did an incredible job with remolding your home. I wouldn’t have the patience because I like having everything done immediately. Your home looks so warm and inviting. Bellissimo.😊😊

[@ednareid5315]

Bravo!!! Great job Sam!! You are a rock ⭐️ Shout out to the best dad ever!!!

[@irmadiaz5928]

I loved watching your videos such great Ideas the way you explained every details thanks for sharing your video with us 👍🏼👍🏼

[@diyhuntress]

Thank you for the love!

[@kmorris2238]

Wow! Awesome!👍🏻👍🏻

[@SandiD1959]

What a talented young woman you are. The whole space looks polished, warm, cosy and so well finished. You should be very proud of yourself!

[@diyhuntress]

Thank you! 💓

[@joannahale4222]

Well done, Sam! Everything looks fantastic and very inviting ☺️

[@rulu3345]

It looks fantastic!!! The backsplash tile adds really nice depth and texture... Great job!!

[@lindamarlow4663]

Awesome job. Be very proud of yourself. You did a wonderful job renovating your home.

[@mayaboyd1515]

You did a phenomenal job! I love how cozy and functional the space feels.

[@GODSPEAKS898]

I really love your kitchen ❤❤❤! No matter how small it is, removing the walls actually gives the appearance of it being larger and you did a beautiful job. By the way, I have the same exact stove in my kitchen and I am loving it!! You are truly a woman of talent and I can’t wait to see what you will do next. Thank you for sharing your home renovation journey will all of us. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾❤️❤️❤️!

[@JaskaranSingh-rn7sk]

Its looking so damn sleek, absolutely perfect!! and coincidentally when you were happy crying someone was cutting onions here too weird right 😂 well, sooooo happy you bring so much inspiration and joy ❤️✨

[@diyhuntress]

You’re the besttt. Thank you for all the love!

[@cam-tv5rb]

I'm so happy for you!! You're such a hard worker and I love watching your work pay off. It's wild how different this house looks. You're amazing!!

[@tiffe4772]

I'm impressed with the work you did. For everyone else with an open concept floor plan and no food storage space this is not the video for us :)

[@oliviagoforth2857]

This gives me hope for my small kitchen remodel. This is a beautiful space.

[@jannibal9273]

Wow, you are one brave and skilled woman! It looks great. So nice to have a Dad with skills who is willing to help too. That was quite the project. A kitchen doesn't have to be huge to be functional and beautifully designed and decorated, and you've got a lot less space to clean. I mean, really, who needs a 15 foot long island??? I think it's beautiful. The only question mark I have above my forehead is whether you considered adding some woodwork and molding to the top of the cabinets to close in the space up to the ceiling.

[@jenna5488]

So light and beautiful! Great work!

[@gillewismusic]

I audibly gasped at the reveal. You did a fantastic job.

[@sjg1829]

I love what you did! I have a small kitchen with no microwave as well so I’m definitely grateful for the drawer microwave and under sink basket idea.

[@freedomofreligion3248]

You're REALLY talented, woman.

[@mojoholo9529]

Cute, fresh and airy. Job well done, my lovely.

[@tonyaleary2996]

So good. So, so good. Fabulous job! Just beautiful.

[@christinep58]

BEAUTIFUL!!! You’ve done an amazing job on that kitchen. Also the other renovations you’ve done are beautiful also. Can’t wait to see the next project 😊

[@cnovalles73]

That cabinet microwave is next level!! 😱😱👍🏼👍🏼

[@bernzicunningham7619]

Awesome girl. I’m so proud of you. I wish I had the courage to try this but still I think I can do something more with my small kitchen. Knocking out the walls did wonders. Great job!!!

[@Randis-vv5hg]

Wow Sam! What a glorious space! Your shining personality makes watching your videos such a pleasure. Looking so forward to seeing more of your work!

[@diyhuntress]

You're the best! Thank you!

[@shabbysuse7821]

Wow!

[@diyhuntress]

Thank you!

[@wells328]

Girl, you did that👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

[@TamarLitvot]

The whole space is now fantastic! You did a great and inspiring job. Congratulations!

[@monak2069]

This is the dream scheme! ❤ This is exactly what I'd like for my kitchen!

I'm so happy for you! It looks great. Enjoy your new kitchen!

[@1107red]

So, so beautiful, great use of space

[@jaymiearmitage3020]

It looks amazing..very inspiring❤️ Question...where did you get your shades/blinds from??

[@diyhuntress]

Thank you so much! Home Depot! I’ll grab a link!

[@ladyt2587]

So very proud of you and happy for you. So much love sweat and tears but you have yourself a lovely open concept. The kitchen looks lovely. It all looks lovely and you have increased the value of your home as well. You Go Girl!!!!!!! 🥰👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@cyndymc3363]

@DIY Huntress you rock!! You did a fantastic job with your house and I love how you styled it as well. I love that your Dad helped so much & has such a great sense of humour 😆. You can really see the bond between you both💞I was very close to my Dad who passed away two years ago, so the episodes with you & your Dad really tug at my heartstrings😭💝 I'm looking forward to your future DIYs to come!

[@jamiemasterson3029]

I love love love it! So beautiful, Sam. Your home is beautiful, you have done a great job on everything. I am so looking forward to seeing what comes next.

[@marywest2896]

turned out so beautiful!!! I think the size is perfect. enough counter space to work on and not so big you walk yourself to death running back and forth in the work triangle...love the microwave drawer. I am really loving all the big deep drawers available now for pots and pans as such, makes getting to them so much easier.

[@diyhuntress]

Thank you so much!

[@loriegabidel]

It is STUNNING.

[@Thrower23]

Sam! Just…..WOW! This is so cozy and inviting!!!😎😍

[@massieb]
