Good morning everyone -
I was going through my files last night and came across this post - it's here in the neighborhood that I'm leaving tomorrow - thought I'd put it up since the work on this post has already been done :)

Decision time is fast approaching
Decisions - Decisions - Decisions
We'll be purchasing our cabinets from Ikea
I will NOT be having the metal legs but rather a standard kick plate on the bottom
I have to tell you I'm really loving this soft grey
I think it would be just beautiful with white countertops
( and my black window )
( and that's how fast the intention of an all white kitchen can fly out the window )
But I'm completely torn about it - and think perhaps I should be going with white for neutrality -
Thoughts anyone?
Want to help a drowning woman?
You'll feel better about yourself if you do - I promise
Go with my heart and get white marble ?
or my brains and get white quartz ?
( trouble - stain - scratch resistant )
sort of looks like marble without all the maintenance, right?
This is going to be the most expensive single purchase
for the kitchen so I HAVE to get it right
I think I found the window though
I went back to the black window post
and added it - but since I don't think anyone
goes backward on my blog to see if I've amended a post
I'll show it again now lol
Have no idea what it costs - we'll go look on the weekend I suppose
but it's a European style shutter window - because it opens on the inside
and has no bar in the middle
and OMGOSH - I'm LOVING that hardware - look at that little knob!!!
Is that the most charming window or what?
I'd forfeit the ceiling tiles to have this
( if it's over budget - and I can guarantee it will be )
and afterall a ceiling can be added at any time really
I might even give up a fridge and stove to have this LMHO
( and possibly my right arm )
Oh - did I mention it comes in black?
I still have this vision in my head
like a tattoo on my brain
and I'm liking the break between the 2 windows after all
Found these panels while cruising around Reno Depot
( Home Depot's competition here in Canada )
OK - I HAVE TO FIND SOMEWHERE TO INSTALL THIS
13.95 a panel - made of MDF - you install them with glue and nails
add a chair rail to the top edge
and paint paint paint
( white white white )
Are they fabulous or what?
Instead of the same old - same old - bead board panelling
( of which I'm a lover of - but I've done it so often I really am ready for a change )
This will make a HUGE impact for not a lot of money don't you think?
Wonder how hard it would be to turn this
into this
because this is the one I meant to buy LOL
AGA KHAN'S GUEST HOUSE ( click to see all the images ) source - Huffington Post |
I'll be at the notary's this morning - signing off on our house
And then I'll be at the notary's tomorrow morning - buying our new house
and then I'll be moving the day after that
Time to shed a few tears
Pull out some more hair
and try to make a few dreams a reality
Much love
