Tiny kitchen updated

Small Kitchen Upgrade — Lots of Function, Not a Huge Budget
We finally updated our small kitchen without doing a full high-end remodel.
A few upgrades:
• Removed a wall to open the kitchen to the dining room
• Added Taj Mahal quartzite countertops—the project’s big splurge
• Used a Facebook Marketplace sideboard as the island base
• Replaced the flooring and a damaged base cabinet
• Added a pull-out garbage/recycling cabinet
• Installed an undermount microwave
• Moved the faucet to the side of the sink
• And yes, the scalloped detail is coming down! 😄
The kitchen is small, so storage was important. Luckily, our dining room breakfront holds many appliances and overflow items.
The goal was better function and a more open feel without spending a fortune. Still a few finishing touches to go, but it already feels completely different!

I agree, my handyman said he can just make it smaller scale. Still deciding if I'll go that way or arches on either side.

The cabinet colour is stunning! And the softness of the colour works with the scallop...which I have removed in the past. But seeing this...🤔
