For women planning a kitchen remodel
Your dream kitchen doesn't have to take a year of guessing.

A remodel is one of the biggest, most emotional decisions you'll make for your home. Crushing Kitchens gives you the clear, step-by-step path — so you stop second-guessing every cabinet, countertop, and contractor call, and start building the kitchen you'll actually love.

No pressure, no sales call — just the roadmap.

Why women choose me
Hi, I'm Camille. I'm a female cabinetmaker. I don't guess what your kitchen costs — I've built it.

Thirty years in the shop and on the jobsite means I can tell you what that island actually costs to make, what a contractor's quote is really covering, and where the money quietly disappears. Most designers can't tell you that with certainty. I can — and that's why women pick me.

Real numbersBuild costs, not showroom estimates
I've worked the subsSo you know what's fair before you sign
Before you spend a dollar
Take this first step before you go to Lowe's, Home Depot, or sit down with a contractor.

The minute you start asking for quotes, you start handing over decisions you haven't made yet. Builders, architects and designers will all give you a different answer — and none of them start with how you actually live in the room. This one step puts you back in charge, so you walk in with a plan instead of a Pinterest board and a hope.

The path
What crushing your kitchen design looks like…
Not a generic checklist — a process built around the way this decision actually feels, from your first "maybe someday" to the kitchen you finally stop redesigning in your head.
1

Start with the free guide

The Dream Kitchen Starter Guide — Kitchen Edit, Pantry Edit and Budget Worksheet in one fillable workbook, plus a 15-minute walkthrough with me.

2

Design from the inside out

We start with how you actually use the room, not what a showroom wants to sell you. That's the DFIO formula — and it's how women end up with ten times the function in the same square footage.

3

Get real numbers first

You'll know what things genuinely cost to build before anyone quotes you. That one thing changes every conversation you have afterwards.

4

Decide when you're ready

No rushing, no pressure. Or as Joann put it: "Camille will be there when I'm ready."

Real remodels
Four women. Four very different kitchens.
Every kitchen is as unique as the woman who lives there. Here's how these four got unstuck — in their own homes, with their own budgets.

Joann

Flint, Michigan

Drag to compare

Nine years deciding between a remodel and a move

The problem

Joann had waited nine years on her kitchen, torn between expanding to fit big family gatherings or leaving for a larger house — and wasn't sure this was even her forever home.

The solution

The sink moved into a new full-size island, a vaulted ceiling opened the room up, the fridge was relocated, and two full pantries with a dedicated tea drawer solved storage for good.

"Getting to fully explain what I want. Not feeling rushed. You don't know what you don't know."

Kay

Kansas City, Missouri
Kay's kitchen before: dark cabinets, a closed-in peninsula and cluttered countersKay's kitchen with the new white cabinetry installedBeforeCabinets in
Drag to compare

An inheritance, a farmhouse, and a husband who wasn't sold

The problem

A gift from her late mother could have funded the remodel, but Kay wasn't sure it would stretch far enough — and her husband, wary of local contractors, wasn't on board yet.

The solution

A Sea Salt and alabaster palette, right-sized DFIO drawers, a day-use pantry, and cutting the in-kitchen laundry room turned an impasse into a plan they both trusted.

"Fugly to fantastic — a slooow process, but getting the peninsula out of there really opens it up."

Charlene

San Diego, California

Drag to compare

A water leak that forced a bigger decision

The problem

A leak damaged several cabinets, and Charlene had to decide fast: take the insurance payout for a small patch job, or use it as the push to remodel the whole kitchen.

The solution

A clear cabinet-style decision and a same-day answer inside the membership turned a stressful insurance timeline into a full kitchen she'd have hesitated to plan on her own.

Penny

Sand Point, Idaho

The result

Stuck for four years in an outdated 80s kitchen

The problem

An awkward, unusable corner and almost no counter space had stalled Penny for four years — and stood between her and the home bakery business she wanted to start.

The solution

A layout that solved the dead corner and multiplied her counter space gave Penny the baking kitchen she needed to finally launch her venture.
