Cottage Style Kitchen on a Budget
Decorating Editor Lindsey Ellis Beatty brings her work home to rehab her drab, old kitchen, making it a bright and happy spot with color and pattern

Kitchen Before
“The old kitchen was a mess,” says Lindsey, who shares the space with her husband, Kevin, and their two boys, Walker and Beckett.
“There was a large piece of plywood in the middle of the floor where an island had once been, the refrigerator floated on
an empty wall, and the black tile countertops felt dingy.”
After spending an entire year researching, compiling tear sheets, and planning the space, Lindsey devised a manageable renovation
plan.
