Gran breaks down in tears after family surprise her with stunning kitchen transformation using B&M and Wilko bargains
A GRANDMA was so shocked she burst into tears when her thoughtful children surprised her with a full kitchen makeover, complete with new modern tiles, wooden floor, freshly painted walls and gleaming worktops.
The amazing makeover was completed by her adult children secretly over 72 hours while their mum wasn’t home.
Taking to the Facebook group DIY on a Budget UK, the woman’s proud daughter explained that she and her siblings pulled together to make the makeover happen on a budget.
She said: “The hard work paid off! We did it all it 72 hours with a budget of just under £500.”
Her post has racked up hundreds of supportive likes and comments, which the woman thanked people for.
“Thank you all so much for the lovely comments,” the DIY whizz said. “She loved it!”
She went on to share details of where items and materials came from – and surprisingly it was all pretty cheap.
The woman revealed the tiles and laminate flooring were purchased from B&Q, while the bathroom wallpaper and accessories came from B&M.
And the team decided to paint the cupboard with Wilkos furniture paint in the shade Mineral Grey.
Capturing the family’s process every step of the way, the video clip reveals how the woman’s kitchen looked tired and dated before the makeover.
The heartwarming post has now gained almost 6,000 likes and hundreds of comments from well wishers.
