Kitchen Makeover For Under $10k

- We love a reno challenge, so when our friends at Dulux asked us to use their new Renovation Range to totally transform an old kitchen, we said “bring it on, baby!” #challengeaccepted
The catch was that the end result needed to be Unrecognisable, Unbelievable AND Under Budget! We were pretty confident about achieving the first two, but the UNDER budget was something we’ve never actually done before. We’ve come close… even ON budget, but never under. - Jak na to + styl
Before: Too much timber
After: Too much off-white paint
I feel like the timber wasn't the problem, it was the walls. The timber would've looked really cozy with the white walls. I would've at least left the timber benchtops tbh.
I wish they had spent the rest of the budget on nicer knobs and sanded and restained the countertops to remain a light wood 🙈🙈🙈
I agree! I was expecting gold knobs. The warm wooden tops would have been nice and cost way less. I just wonder how food safe the painted tops are
I also would have left the counters a lighter shade of the wood. The know are ugly. They make the cabinets look old
I would have white washed the brick, added a lighter finish on the countertops, and painted the cabinets a dusty, medium green. Green would look great against that copper hood vent. An old farmhouse sink would look good in there too. The painted white tile looks good.
Hi Spencer, we really wanted to trial the Dulux Renovation Range in this kitchen transformation so it was the perfect chance to give the Tiles & Benchtops product a go x
I agree, this is just an advert for the new range of dulux.
copper knobs would have been the perfect touch to really emphasize the hood, as well as a copper tone faucet ! Nonetheless, great reno!!
I love everything but the white painted wooden countertops and the door knobs. It would’ve added more character if the wooden countertops were sanded to their original color and varnished with a clear top coat and copper rounds knobs would’ve tied in with the incredible oven hood top
Kelsey Theresa I totally agree but I guess when you are sponsored you have to show the full range of products
Hi Kelsey, we really wanted to trial the Dulux Renovation Range in this kitchen transformation so it was the perfect chance to give the Tiles & Benchtops product a go x
Kelsey Theresa well you tried it out now time to sand the paint off!! And expose that beautiful wood
@@SableSunsets hahahs... Very good suggestion. That's the way it should be done. Thanks for the courageous advice...!!!
totally agree
It's actually depressing that you painted over those STUNNING countertops. And paint as a countertop? No way that will last. You literally just painted. Paint for 10k and an expensive sink.
5 grand went to trades though. I actually like the benchtop now the more I look at it but I did like the timber too.
Every house I've lived in, I've painted the countertops...and they are still going strong. I've done this for others too and they still love theirs!!
MrsAriann I was really depressed when they painted that timber ceiling as well.
Sanding it back and revarnishing a lighter colour would have looked so much better. Having so much white in a kitchen would just make it a PITA to clean.
MrsAriann the paint was specifically formulated for this type of application . I think they did an amazing job ...yes it’s just paint , but when you’re on a tight budget , this is a great way to do it
I can't believe you painted over that beautiful wooden bench top.
you should have heard me shout "YES!" when i realised there was a new video! and of course the kitchen looks fabulous!!
Magnolia Amethyst we heard you!!! 😂
Magnolia Amethyst felt exactly the same today!!
bahahaha,my hubby says he heard me! XD
*high five!* we need our three birds fix :D
So wish they had left the timber benchtops, would have added much more warmth.
agree.
And the brick wall
The ends result is stunning, the bigger question is longevity, how quickly will it start chipping?
If it's prepped the right way, it won't. And they'we prepped it, allright!
@@KatarinaP81 Painted countertops is the worst idea.
Like it but I wish you had left the unpainted brick wall behind the sink exposed rather than hiding it in white paint
I agree. I think the whole coastal look is getting tired. White is getting boring.
Annie Hodgson Totally agree. The exposed brick would have been a beautiful contrast to the white. What a waste of exposed brick!
The warmth of the brick and countertop would have added in so much dimension into the room.
I really do love the 3 birds and their style. However, 10k for a paint job is just not realistic or the best use of a budget. The appliances seem to be the same and the worktop (which food is preped on should not be painted unless you are on $762 budget)
ahh this one is a miss, unfortunately. There is just so much you can do with a 10k (even with the cost of labour). That being said the styling was very well done.
I'm going to agree with you on this. Literally everything was painted and that was disappointing for me. I know labor is costly, but to me they should have been able to stretch this budget a bit more. Styling seemed to eat up the budget too when getting new countertops (or refinishing the wood countertops) and a new backsplash would have gone miles for me.
@@ItsMsHeatherNicole I agree. I also wonder why they didn't replace the hotplates. That would have made a big difference to how it looks.
It was about the paint guys. Brand work. Good renovation for the collab.
There is $4333 worth of labour, the job would be the difference of $4632. But for DIY purposes budget of 10k could have gone further. I actually did my kitchen in January using this product and it is awesome I did it myself, there is a lot of work that goes into this, days of prep and recoat. But it come out awesome. My splash back was black tiles so I had to do 3 coats and each coat is a 8 hour wait.👏👏👏👏😊
@@salmasky9739 People seem to not be getting that. They aren't doing it for themselves. Dulux asked them to show off the paint line here.
Three Birds Renovations : what color we should choose?
Three Birds Renovations : WHITE ALWAYS WHITE XD
Am actually surprised their HQ is not white
Hi lovely, there's no white here! This kitchen is Shetland Lace - www.dulux.com.au/colour/shetland-lace x
As much as I'm over white, I'm grateful not to see any stainless steel.
Three Birds Renovations let’s be real, it’s white...
10k for paint?
Seriously they could have bought a whole new kitchen with new appliances from ikea.
i get this is advertisement but this is just a disappointment. use dulux for walls but for a kitchen make over?
the 10K came from all the painters doing all the work, instead of them lol.
@@Sean-mc4iq yeah was 3k Labour but Still, 10k for what is just a painted kitchen is a rip off
And don't forget the white sink. 1240$? They own a shop for that price or what? For that kind of cash you could get the sink with the faucet and a good microwave too. 'the f**k..
And "handyman"?? That handyman for almost 500$ he should've made the electric and plumbing part (don't know why they needed a plumber though)
And f**k those handles for 282$..just..no
Litterally every makeover video on youtube these days: lets just paint everything white and call it a day
because white makes the ugliest old things look new and clean
@@unusableaccount7439 they could've painted it grey or dark blue. There is 0 contrast in this kitchen.
That rangehood is beautiful 😍
more budget-friendly renos like this, please!!
im glad you kept the hood! I think it looks great, the lighting and barstools bring it all togethr!
You all probably dont care but does anyone know a method to get back into an Instagram account??
I was dumb forgot my password. I appreciate any tips you can give me
@Walter Salvatore instablaster =)
The knobs are still outdated and now the countertops look outdated. They were beautiful in the original wood tone. This is a case of too much of the same thing . The Natural wood tops would have set off the entire look of the kitchen . I could have done this on $2k budget.
The cabinet doors are dated too
They live in Australia where everything is ALOT more expensive......
@@daniel.s8126 I hope when I’m 50 I’m not still arguing online about the price of paint like you... lol
It’s a shame that the copper of the hood wasn’t integrated a bit more- still an awesome reno though!
How could they incorporate it more?
L M add copper taps instead of gold, or maybe add copper accents in the light fixtures or decorative pieces like some bowls. The main thing that seemed a little strange was that they went with gold instead of copper because that would’ve been an easy swap
L M I’ve also seen some people say copper knobs
Katie Quirk Ah, ok I see what you were saying. I had some wine while watching...haha
L M I’m just the same 😂
So nice to see a gorgeous transformation with only paint💛 So much more sustainable than replacing it with a whole new kitchen☺️
Yay I missed your videos! This is a great makeover well done 👍
Bonnie: "Nooooo! Oh UNDER budget. Yes." 😂 Great transformation. Personally I would have kept the bench and ceiling timber for some contrast. I think one day we will look back at this painting over wood and realise that was nuts. Still loved the video and glad you showed how to fix hideous aluminium windows. 😘
Absolutely STUNNING! Thank goodness you got rid of that red brick wall! Beautiful guys.
Everyone is complaining about how the paint job is so expensive but tbh I think its totally realistic and worth it. If they would have bought new kitchen cabins this reno would have been waaaay over the budget. Also look how fantastic modern-boho-farmhouse style this kitchen turned out? This is basically my dream kitchen!
I understand some people love the timber countertops, I personally don't. I would have done the exact same in this space. But I would have liked to add a little bit of accent with a boho rug and decor just to warm it up a little bit more but that's my personal taste.
Amazing video Ladies! ♡ greetings from Germany
White really conveys the feeling of fresh and clean. love it.
As soon as I saw the notification for this video, I had to watch it straight away. Been missing seeing contents from you guys so much. thank you for a great video❤❤😃. Don't be away for too long🤗.
GORGEOUS!!!! ladies I expected nothing less than spectacular from you all!
Love this transformation!! Thanks for coming back to the basics! We can't always afford to rebuild and need to spruce rather than ripout!! Thanks three birds 🤩🤩🤩
That oven hood top! Love you girls! ❤️💯👍
wowee ladies, just amazing as always and its good to know what can be achieved on a small budget :)
I woke up today needing some 3 Birds and thinking Lord I need some new stuff from my faves and so I started watching old videos and in the middle of Colour Me Hamptons, this notification popped up! I just grinned reallyreally loudly ... God loves me truly! Thank you Birds! Made my 2020 so far!! Awesome as always. More. More. More.
i love absoutely everything you guys do!
More videos like this would be amazing. love you so much!!!😘😂😁
Jasmine Nybo thanks lovely. Glad you liked it 🥰
I hope you make more videos like this!!! I LOVE seeing how attainable these Reno's are ... especially with the strict budget. Love your work gals xxx
THANK YOU FOR THIS!! I really missed your videos! 🥺❤
Once again I’m just here for your amazing outfits and positive vibes !! 💋
Amazing 😍 Missed you incredible ladies!
So glad you're back!!! Keep the videos coming 🙌♥️🙌
Just so so good. You guys are my ABSOLUTE FAVS ❤️❤️
Blown away! Stunning transformation! 🤩
love everything, and what's more important anyone can do it. Great job!
Gorgeous transformation. Very inspiring!
Missed you ladies so much! Beautiful transformation!
I think a painted black countertop would have been cool! To match the black legs of the bar stools- the possibilities would have been endless! I love that you painted the roof, the bricks and cooktop splash back, made a HUUUGE difference!
Great video girls! love a good kitchen freshen up, your style always takes it to another level
Honestly I love you ladies so much. I look forward to bringing you to my country one day to work on my forever home. 🙏🏽❤️
This is exactly my style! Awesome job 😍
It really took me off guard when i saw the young man painting the sealing with an air powred tool without a mask 😢, their working conditions need to improve
Yesssss, I’ve worked with contractors that just don’t care anymore. They say it’s a hassle which is so bizarre. I guess getting sick is fine for them. Smh
We always ask our professionals to use the correct safety equipment. Whether they do or not is another issue 😬😣
I love you girls, love the very homey style that you create, and the different skills each of you bring.
I think the kitchen looks amazing! Don't know why people are so bothered by something they don't even have to live with! The paint transformed the kitchen, made it so much brighter, more modern and more welcoming! I actually love the knobs! I thought this was a great way to promote an amazing product, and it looks gorgeous! I would happily live in this kitchen, looks stunning as always! :)xx
Wow! Love how paint transformed this kitchen completely! It's inspired me make over my rental kitchen. I'm going to paint everything white (except de counter tops). I just got an okay from my landlord. So excited. Hope it turns out as well as this make over :)
Amazing. Once again ladies.
Waoooo! The change is amazing!! 👍🏻❤️
Waw what a makeovers! I would have sanded everything down because the wood looks great and well cared for. And then I would have painted it white 😄 change the stove etc and maybe at a beautiful stone on top of the wood to make everything feel expensive.
I love the transformation but doesn't it feel like they used more for styling than the actual reno?
What a beautiful transformation!
looks so beautiful, wish i could do this to my kitchen 💗💗
Love love love this look is like how my bedroom is going to be.
I love all of your makeovers😍🥰
Love transformations that we all can afford!! LOVE the white. Absolutely GORGEOUS!!!
And its not even white! Just jarring with the fridge. I didn't like any of this, it's just an expensive paint job.
Amazing job guys! Looks fabulous!!
Oh how I’ve missed you girls 💕
YES ANOTHER VIDEO love you girls so much
My favorite birds! (love these ladies)
Major makeover - it was all the 'un's' and more - smart. Great inspiration. Glad you guys are about :-)
Jackie Grant thanks gorgeous. Glad you noticed the “uns” 😂
What a stunning transition! Absolutely beautiful kitchen and you took it from a little dim and very dated to a big, bright, beautiful space anyone would be proud to cook and host in! Lovely job as always! Paint is truly the least expensive, most impressive change you can make on a budget and the most modern formulations make painting things that would have been an impossible mess just ten years ago, completely DIY friendly and DURABLE!! I love that!
Thanks for your kind words, April! xxx
Wow! You guys are amazing. I need a kitchen reno too :)
Phenomenal transformation!
love the white painted brick
Love it - it looks fresh and aesthetic, you can’t go wrong with earth tone and those summer boho deco is ❤️ also that farmhouse sink is my fav I could imagine myself starting the day in that kitchen (morning view must be 😍) good job girls
Omg the kitchen turned out fabulous! I had no idea you could paint tile 🤯 I might need to give it a go my kitchen is like a time capsule from the 60s/70s haha not the vibe I’m going for 😂
I LOVED WHAT YOU DID!!! This kitchen is so fresh and bright just lovely. Can you do some more budget-friendly redos?
I'm so happy you're back! 🙈❤
Hey girls welcome back!! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
I feel like all of their renovations have VERY similar styles. I personally love it, but it seems to me that they dont take into account the style of the home owner. For instance this kitchen does not match with the rest of the house
People who want a different style won't hire them. But I agree, the all white hamptons/coastal vibes is so boring. Everyone does it now.
Lovely think I will try this!!
Feel depressed when working with dark colours around me, especially the bench top, so this transformation is amazing! As are all the Reno’s you girls do👍
I love the budget-conscious video I'm sure it'll give you more viewers
Absolutely lovely
I started reading the comments before finishing the video... The comments bashing the painting is unfair. The transformation is super beautiful.
Awesome video! Thanks
Wow it looked 100% better before hand
You three are the cutest!
Absolutely love ❤️
Their vedios are all about women empowerment and i love it 😍
I love your videos so much. I just found this channel three days ago and I am finished with every video today 😂 I really love your renovations and I can't wait for the next one.
Greetings from Germany 🇩🇪
👋🏼🇩🇪
Woooow amazing transformation
You guys never ever fail to impress 😍
If only I had a decent kitchen to start with like this one 😅 try doing this challenge when you have to gut the kitchen
Love it!
incredible!!!!
Wow, total black and white difference! Wouldn't surprise me to find this kitchen in Ibiza!
Love you guys so much from Yemen.❤❤❤
Every time I think about not having seen one of your videos in a long time a video goes online the same day
Either way looks amazing. I love the boho feel. Could you please list the decor you've used and where 2 purchase from. Love it
I missed you guys!!!!
They are literally the mako mermaids
Sand the wood counter tops down to natural and seal them and add handles to cabinets and knobs to drawers but use a contrasting material or color like a hammered bronze ugh missed the opportunity with the hardware that’s a huge transformation in its self and this was still granny’s kitchen when they were done
Great Job ladies! Pity we still cant buy this paint from Dulux here in the U.K.
Dear's i wounder were your buying the big shell which you used as Decorative most of your video for kitchen?
