Wanna Look at My Icky Old Kitchen?
Comments (9)@desertsteph: Thanks. Sounds like you have a weird kitchen as well. On the surface it's okay. I didn't notice anything weird when I bought the house a number of years ago. But when you look at it closer....the cabinet doors are wonky and the hinges need tightening constantly (or are falling off) , there is weird dead space in the corners, the layout doesn't really work that well, there isn't any grout in sections of the countertop and the cabinet doors (MDF) are starting to expand at the corners. That's why I call it "icky" cuz it's not "terrible". I've seen much worse. Heck, in college I LIVED in much worse! : )...See Morecolor close to SW Blonde but...
Comments (41)Bonniee, thank you for the link, Rays looks like a great place to shop for bedding....wish they were in FL:) Was there a brand name to your bedding? I would be interested in looking at a brand name website to check dimensions of their bedding. We just bought a new mattress set and my old comforter is not long enough....it needs to be at least a few more inches to make it nicely past the top edge of the box spring. These new mattresses so tall....its crazy. I hate to go custom, but most of the stores carry comforters that are made to fit standard size or the older size mattress depths. So buying something in a department store has not worked out for me. At least I am back to a standard size bedskirt. Our last mattress set we bought 10 years ago, had a 9 inch box spring, the bedskirt had to be custom. Now my box spring is normal and the mattress is too tall. A friend suggested a duvet, but I am not sure if that would be longer on the sides to cover the mattress. Thanks again for the link, I might call them to see if they can email me some pictures of any thing they have that might fit....See MoreQuestions about SW Blonde
Comments (26)diy_dirk - Would you believe today is our moving day!!! We've been up since 4 a.m. preparing for the movers. As soon as I get hooked up at our new home, I will send you some photos. I've asked this before - but what is the SIMPLEST way to post pictures here? It's funny how different SW Blonde can look on the different photos and walls. Our walls do not have any greenish tint to them, and the color seems to blend in with everything we've done. Our old house that Katrina blew away was painted mostly with SW's "Crewel Tan." I don't think they make it any more, but it was very similar to Blonde. When we started building our house, I thought I'd be more of a risk taker and go with bold, bright colors. You wouldn't believe how many samples I bought - but all roads led back to Blonde and Mannered Gold. Go figure. Better get off this computer and get back to work. I'll email back soon....See Moretan color that goes with SW blonde
Comments (6)Francypants. Im not a fan of gold transitioning into tan neither. I am trying to convince him to try ivories. I have that next to Blonde in my home. Maybe the stone he picks for the fireplace will help out. When I can get to computer I will look up your suggestion. I'm on my phone. This the poor grammer. :) Mellyc123. Will suggest your color. Thank you...See Moremlauder
