Comments (20)rhome, thank you so much for neglecting your children's education to help me with my kitchen. That's what I've been doing lately. Thank goodness we live in Ontario. When I've been doing this, my daughter has been designing the most awesome tree house which I really hope she forgets about by the time we move. I'm sure it would be harder to build than our house. Anyways, I absolutely love the corner pantries. They would be perfect for my kitchen. I have never seen them before, you're brilliant. I drew up two plans - one with the two and one with only one pantry. Although I think the kitchen looks so symmetrical with two and has a stove alcove, sniff, I think I would miss the counter space. That corner is kind of where I had a baking centre planned. What do you think? Again thank you so much for your ideas. Lavender lass - you probably won't believe this but I drew up the second plan before reading your post so there must be something there. By the way, I always read your posts, I have nothing constructive to say except how beautiful everything looks so I've never posted anything in reply but you have exquisite taste and your house will be just perfect. I have put a prep sink in these plans but really I don't understand prep sinks. I've never had one and I don't know anybody who does (in my small world). I've seen them online and they look nice - as some of you know I love sinks, but prep sinks? Can somebody explain them to me? I wasn't sure how big the corner pantries should be: I made the one at the top 48 x 30" and the other one, 48 x 33 because of the fridge. That is my fridge there isn't it? I could have reasons for either one but I think probably my fridge. I just realized that I didn't do a separate picture of just my kitchen this time so I hope you can see enough detail. Thank you again for all your help, I really appreciate it. Oh, sorry rhome, I was so excited about the pantries I forgot about the island. I enlarged it a bit. That looks pretty cool rounded how you had it. I would have to cut and paste to get it to look like that as well. If I just rounded what I have then that would probably be big enough, wouldn't it? Although if I have a prep sink on the island, I'm not sure what would get cut or if I would eat into the eating space. I'll think about it....See MoreWhat's your must-have cool kitchen item?
Comments (38)Well, my kitchen still isn't quite done. But for now, it is my full extension drawers and the soft close on the doors and drawers. What a great feature. DB (dear boyfriend) used to make me jump everytime he shut (aka slammed) the cabinet door. Now it is quiet as a whisper--my whisper not his--he doesn't have a quiet bone in his body! I also love my faucet (pre-rinse faucet). I now know why they use those things in restaurants. Makes your life so much easier. My under cab lights which make my kitchen sexy! My Bosch dishwasher. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE that thing. It is quieter than my new fridge. Cleans gunked up, caked on stuff that has been sitting there a week. Everything comes out clean as a whistle. Did I tell you that I love the thing? Granite is not too bad either Oh, by the way I Chick--check is in the mail... along with the other checks for CA state employees....Not so LOL...but one must keep a sense of humor......See MoreTell me what you think of my new rug...
Comments (64)oh I just shared several feathers in a different thread. They're pretty big (since it's neverending "greedy bastard Friday"(c, Laurel Bern), and the site sent me email with a promotion notification-they have 20% site wide. but no frames. on the other hand one can choose warmer frame https://www.leifshop.com/collections/art/products/feather-study-13-print https://www.leifshop.com/collections/art/products/feather-study-14-print https://www.leifshop.com/collections/art/products/feather-study-14-print I really love their vintage pressed flowers I must say. but these are much smaller and more expensive. but beautiful. special.. like this one https://www.leifshop.com/collections/art/products/vintage-pressed-flower-plate-dovefoot-cranesbill...See More2ajsmama
