SW says Kestral has a pink undertone. They pair it with Greek Villa. I think it would go with your cabs...they look nice in your current color.

Adding — and you MUST go to templating at the fabricator’s, or at least see it digitally, even with quartz. Good luck.

I love the last one with that bright rug! I think if you like it, don’t worry about style. I think it’s psychologically damaging to live in a house where resell value guides our choices rather than what brings us joy!

Luna said it well. Just remember to put time and attention to the prep work when painting cabinets. Go for it.

How about a table/shelves in the same wood as the vanity to hold towels and toilet paper in the bottom and hand towels on the top?

You made a mistake and it will always look like a mistake unless you fix it properly. Just think of all the storage space you don't have because the vanity is the wrong size.



If you purchased it at HD, I'm not aware there is a "return window".

Sell the vanity on Craigslist and purchase the correct size. Maybe you can get half your money back.

I think they will work together nicely. The grey tones will help mediate the strongly contrasting pop between stark white and blue. Just be thoughtful about your grout color and grout line width.

Is it flat? The seam itself looks good from what you show.

“Kitchenaid - but I don't like the grooved handles.”

It seems like Kitchenaid hits your checklist. And the grooved handles - seriously, with your other requirements, the handles are not a big deal. I cannot for the life of me recall what any of our kitchen appliances handles look like. I’ll have to go in the kitchen to check. Can you recall your appliances handles without going into the kitchen to see them?

"The easy answer is designing a fridge that doesn't peel when you use standard cleaning supplies on it"

An even easier answer is to follow the manufacturer's cleaning instructions.

Hello everyone!

i wanted to give you an update on the stove conversation. You all helped seal the deal on induction. I ended up going over my budget but am could not be happier with the outcome. I lucked into a Pro Bertazonni 36 inch induction that was on a showroom floor in my city! They wanted to clearence it out to free up floor space. I love everything about it! Thank you for your persistance in letting me know the history of induction which Adam also did at Appliance Loft.

So an update. Bosch corporate arranged a full refund for the refrigerator through Lowes after 3.5 years of ownership. That is standing behind the product! The new fridge was delivered two days later. Kudos to Bosch for taking extra care of a customer complaint.

So, we're shopping for kitchen appliances, right? And I'm totally crushing on Bosch! Their stuff screams quality and style without breaking the bank. I checked out this site https://www.washermanual.com/bosch/ and it's got all the deets you need to make the best choice! Trust me, you won't regret going Bosch for your kitchen dreams!

Those are either Cherner stools or pretty good-looking copies. https://chernerchair.com/collections/stools. If original, you will not find them at Wayfair or BB&B, where the copies are inferior in quality.

Not the best photo from our 2017 remodel - not currently home to take new ones - but we absolutely love our Noble Grey countertops!

Did you mean to use the word “eclectic”? Because the faucet pictured in your OP is a traditional style, called a ”bridge faucet“. It can be seen in hundreds of thousands of kitchens that are going for an all over old-style kitchen look. It’s not eclectic, so it’s hard to know from your post if you actually want eclectic or you want traditional. Can you post a few more photos of faucets you like so we can help you better?

As an aside, a faucet with two handles like that is a pain. Every time you want to change the water temperature you have to use both hands. A single-handle faucet is easier.

I always thought the fridge delivery people connected it as long as you had the appropriate lines set up prior. But it depends on what you signed off on, agreed to, paid for....etc.
