Easy Kitchen Upgrade | Our New Kitchen Faucet

We recently made a little update to our kitchen…

Can you spot it?

That’s right, a beautiful new stainless steel pull-down faucet from American Standard.

Updating our kitchen faucet is something I have wanted to do for some time now, but we kept putting it off. Because even though I wanted a new faucet, we didn’t need one. Our existing faucet was fine, but that was it…it looked too small for our kitchen sink and it lacked any real features (you can see it here)…but it worked just fine. And that is why we kept moving it to the end of our priority list.

So when the opportunity arose with our friends at The Home Depot Canada and American Standard to update our kitchen faucet we were thrilled.

As soon as our new faucet arrived, Nick got to work installing it (which he said was the easiest job he has ever had!). I happened to be out of the house when it was delivered, but when I returned home and saw it for the first time I did a little happy dance. It completely updated the look of our kitchen.

I know what you’re probably thinking…I can get pretty excited over something as simple as a new kitchen faucet.

And you’re right, I do! But I find such joy in creating a beautiful and welcoming home for our family to enjoy, and when something as easy as updating our kitchen faucet creates such a fun new look it adds a little bounce to my step. 🙂

And besides, it’s the little things, right? (P.S. You can find the free printable for this sweet bird print from my friend here)

I think it’s the clean lines that I love so much. It pairs so well with our kitchen, playing on both the traditional farmhouse feel of our home with a touch of modern simplicity. I also love how the height of it fills in the space below the window, it feels like we have a real kitchen faucet now.

Can you guess what our daughter’s favorite feature is?

You got it…the four different spray functions. It makes everything from washing the dishes to watering our plants fun. And I have to say, I don’t mind my new little helper one bit!

So if you feel like your kitchen needs a little pick-me-up, something as simple as updating your kitchen faucet will probably do the trick. It’s an inexpensive and quick upgrade that anyone can do, and it might just leave you doing a little happy dance too. 😉

Am I the only one that feels like our home is neve Am I the only one that feels like our home is never really finished, even after a big renovation? 🙋🏻‍♀️We shared our finished renovation a few months ago but we knew there would still be additions to make in the weeks and months ahead. I've added a few new pieces of decor and we installed a custom roman shade, but the biggest change we made was replacing our kitchen appliances. It's a big investment, but one that is worth it.We partnered with our friends at @frigidairecanada to update our existing appliances and today we are sharing all about it, from why we chose @frigidairecanada appliances again to the favourite features we're swooning over.
