Ep 2. Gypsy Rose Kitchen Goes Gray

**Description:**

In the season 4 episode 2 of Kitchen Crashers, titled "Gypsy Rose Kitchen Goes Gray," host Alison Victoria transforms a cramped and outdated kitchen into a modern, functional space. The owners, a young couple with a love for all things vintage, have a kitchen stuck in the past, complete with a dated color scheme and functional issues.

Victoria wastes no time in getting to work, tearing out the old cabinets and countertops to make way for sleek, modern replacements. The new gray tone cabinets and marble countertops give the kitchen a fresh, contemporary look. A new backsplash completes the look, with a fun and funky tile pattern that adds a pop of color to the gray backdrop.

One of the biggest obstacles in the kitchen was the lack of storage space, which can be a common issue in older kitchens. To address this, Victoria installs custom cabinets that reach all the way to the ceiling, giving the homeowners plenty of storage space for their kitchen gadgets and other items. And to make the most of the available space, Victoria also installs a custom-built pantry.

Another issue in the old kitchen was the lack of good lighting. Victoria solves this by adding plenty of recessed lighting overhead, and also installing stylish pendant lights over the kitchen island. The island is a focal point of the new kitchen, with ample space for food prep and even a few bar stools for casual dining.

Another highlight of the new kitchen is the new appliances. The homeowners upgrade from outdated, energy-inefficient appliances to a sleek, modern suite of stainless steel appliances. These new appliances not only look great but are also more convenient to use and more energy-efficient.

Throughout the renovation, Victoria keeps the couple's vintage style in mind. She incorporates vintage touches like glass knob handles on the cabinets and a fun retro-style refrigerator. And to give the kitchen a bit of personal flair, she adds some fun and funky decor items, such as a colorful rug and some vintage art prints.

In the end, the young couple is thrilled with their new, modern and functional kitchen. The space is now perfect for hosting friends and family, cooking up gourmet meals, and just hanging out and enjoying each other's company. Thanks to the talented work of Alison Victoria and her team, this outdated kitchen is now a true showpiece, blending vintage charm with modern convenience.
