Next to the fridge, there’s an open pantry where she can keep her dry goods.

The solid maple countertops were handmade by Tanya’s husband, a crafty person himself. They were built to fit the kitchen, and stained white to match the room.
The wood grain still shows through a bit, though, which makes the counters look a bit more warm and organic.
Tanya isn’t sure about the ultimate fate of her kitchen (she’s contemplating a new floor, among other things), but for now, she loves the new look. In total, this makeover cost $1,492 (CAD, so about $1,135 in U.S. dollars), and it was thanks to hunting around, being thrifty, and DIY-ing!
You can see more of Tanya’s projects on her blog, and you can also keep up with her latest adventures on Instagram and Pinterest.
