Mr. Oats originally had the kitchen walls and cabinets painted the ugliest cobalt blue I've ever laid my eyes on (blue is his favorite so 
)
Decided to redo the cabinets in a dark grey and painstakingly add a stone backsplash to the entire kitchen
Progress pics (and no, I don't keep a tidy workspace so 
)
Results:
I was feeling 
after finishing the project, but now Mr. Oats is looking at selling the place so I won't be enjoying my labors for as long as I would have liked to 
!homeowners I have redone the kitchen, the study floors, and the fireplace (Mr. Oats installed hardwood flooring in the living room area and granite tile flooring in the kitchen/surrounding hallways) since the place was purchased. Does anyone have a clue how to get the most monetary value on renovations (I want to get ahead of low-balling appraisers 
)

You don't.
Assume all aesthetic renovations add 0 to the value

Added an additional prep sink and island counter as well. That's a functional renovation at least, but no clue how much help it's gonna be lol

Fair.
It may not actually increase the value per se, but could be the deciding factor for someone who is looking at multiple houses.
I bought my house because it has an isolated workshop on the back of the garage. Easy access to cowtools and stuff but with a wall separating it from my cars for dust control.
