Butler’s Pantry Makeover
The Concept
Let’s start with this space that is located just off of the kitchen. When my clients moved into the home, they did a lot of painting. Part of the painting was the existing cabinets. The gorgeous hood fan in the kitchen is a lovely blue.

This blue is such a strong and rich statement. We decided to do all of the cabinetry in this color! I have used this color before and was excited to be working with it again! After discussing the items on the ‘wish list’, the conceptual design was created.
Design by Sheri Bruneau
My client loves to bake and there were certain things on her list that she wished for. The items we were adding were:
- A tall cabinet to house the cleaning supplies, brooms, a vacuum, etc.
- An apron sink.
- My clients wished to have their microwave (in a base cabinet).
- Floating shelves were a must!
And here is the 3D conceptual rendering of the butler’s pantry makeover:
Butler’s Pantry: Before
Here is what the butler’s pantry looked like prior to the work getting done.
Part of the space was used as a dropping zone for….things.
The previous owner had plumbing in already for a sink and we were lucky there were also outlets at counter height.
Butler’s Pantry: The Reveal
The tall cabinet that now houses the cleaning supplies (out of sight).
We chose a beautiful, delicate knob in a Golden Champagne finish. This finish, with the blue cabinets, is just so damn pretty!
For the faucet, we continued with the Golden Champagne finish.
My client LOVES to bake and can’t wait to use her new space!
Butler’s Pantry Makeover
This was such a great space to create. I absolutely loved working with my client and I wish to give her a special shout-out. Our initial conversation started in March of 2018. I had mentioned that I was pretty booked but she patiently waited for me to fit her in. We had a couple of long delays with things (no fault of anyone – just an extremely busy renovation summer). In the end, although this space took longer to get it all done, I am extremely grateful for such great clients. In a recent email, my client said,
Love my Pantry! It so much fun to work in.
Coming next week I’ll be showcasing their master closet makeover! I hope you stay tuned.
Love the blue and LOVE that cabinet hardware – so pretty. Beautiful transformation, Sheri!
Thank you so much Janet!
Sheri:
That blue is such a rich, beautiful color. Beautiful job! And I love the golden champagne finish on her hardware…even that name makes me want it.
I bet your client IS happy in her new Butler’s Pantry..who wouldn’t be? It is just gorgeous..especially compared to the *Before*….the type of space most of us have in our homes.
And that walnut herringbone pattern for the countertops and shelving? Beautiful!
Congratulations to you and your client!
Thank you so much Leslie!
What a lovely pantry, and oh what I would give for a bit of extra room to accommodate one! I particularly like the countertop. What a lovely detail!
Thank you Judith! For a smaller space, there is now great counter space for my client who loves to bake.
