Welcome to our Scandinavian Modern cabin kitchen reveal! In this post, I’ll be sharing the process of renovating our cabin kitchen and our experience doing an IKEA kitchen.
Say hello to our beautiful Scandinavian Modern Wisconsin cabin kitchen that my husband and I renovated on a budget.
We couldn’t be happier with how this IKEA kitchen turned out and I’m excited to dive deeper into all of the details of this renovation.
The Scandi/Mod Design
The overall vibe of our cabin is Scandinavian-modern with a rustic twist. We purchased the home from owners of 30 years who did a great job preserving the natural wood paneling in the home. There was a lot of carpet — even on the kitchen island (3,000 sq. ft. to be exact) — and an original kitchen that badly needed some tender love and care.
Our goal with this renovation was to infuse the home with Scandinavian modern vibes while keeping the true charm (insert: wood paneling) of the cabin.
With that in mind, we kept the wood paneling on the walls and ceiling and installed a beautiful white backsplash with white paint to finish it off. Instead of doing white or natural wood cabinets, we went green/grey to make sure it paired nicely with the wood paneling.
