Minnie Dlamini just gave her mom a birthday gift she will never forget — a stunning kitchen makeover designed with love, intention, and style.

To mark her mother’s recent special day, the media personality went all out, transforming her family kitchen into a warm, modern space that reflects everything her mom has brought into their home over the years. The surprise wasn’t just about the design — it was a deeply personal gesture of gratitude.

In an Instagram post revealing the makeover, Minnie shared that the project began with selecting a Caesarstone countertop as the foundation of the design. From there, the space was brought to life with thoughtful touches and high-quality finishes — all chosen to honour the woman who raised her.

Describing the kitchen as a gift to her mom, Minnie spoke about creating a space worthy of the love, creativity, and warmth her mother has always poured into their home. The post struck a chord with fans, many of whom praised the sweet tribute and applauded the sentimental value behind the renovation.

Now writing a birthday message for her mom, this is what she had to say:

“Happy Birthday Mummy

“Every design story has a beginning, and we love style stories that start like this one!
Watch as I bring my mom’s dream kitchen to life starting with the perfect @caesarstonesa countertop as the foundation.

“Because when it comes to creating spaces that hold lasting memories, only the highest quality will do.
Happy Birthday to my beautiful mom this kitchen is your gift from me. A space worthy of the love, warmth, and creativity you’ve always poured into our home,” wrote Minnie.

Now taking us on a tour of the new kitchen, Minnie shared these stunning photos:
