Martha Stewart 'Picket Fence'
Comments (2)I, too am about to order "Skylands" in Picket Fence in my new kitchen and am looking at the same situation. Did you happen to notice the symbols next to the paint colors on her paint card? The symbol you see next to Picket Fence means that all other paint colors on the card with that symbol will be harmonious with each other....See MoreMartha Stewart Cabinets sold by Home Depot
Comments (5)They have a limited lifetime warranty, as does most of Masterbrand's products. (It is contingent upon normal care and wear and tear, and not abuse.) Shipping damage is a way of life with many products these days. My experience with Masterbrand has been that they quickly shipped out replacements with no questions asked. But, I am on the dealer side, and not the HD side, which I understand is a lot more complicated and often not friendly to the customer. I'd have to ask you what your particular problems with the product were? Please share your pictures. I'm sure that Masterbrand or Home Depot will resolve the situation....See MoreThread from KitchenForum re Martha Stewart
Comments (19)I'm loving this thread! Having lived a good many years(67), one sees trends come, and go, only to return again. I grew up in a turn-of-the-century house in a big city, with white appliances and painted cabinets. That was the only option. There was a huge walk-in pantry and the only true cabinet in the kitchen was at the sink. Oh, and it was a farmhouse sink, with faucet mounted on the back wall. The stove was 4 burner gas with a wood-burning heater on one side to heat the kitchen. We cooked with cast iron and stainless steel. All floors were dark varnished wood with area rugs and a runner down the hall, other than the kitchen... it was linoleum. Windows had roller shades, with either lace or sheer curtains, that could be pushed aside, for lots of light and privacy control. During the past many years, I have gone through white, coppertone, harvest gold, almond, bisque and have returned to WHITE. Cookware started with stainless... then 'modernized' to teflon, silverstone, 'lifetime' non-stick (hah!), and now back to stainless and yes, cast iron. My furniture has ranged from 50's modern, mediterranen, transitional, contemporary to currently a mix of collected traditional pieces that are timeless. As so many have said... ignore trends, go with what you love, and keep 'practical' in mind. Save money and don't follow what is hot at the moment. If what worked long ago keeps reappearing, it must be for a reason......See MoreHelp with my Martha Stewart Kitchen design
Comments (15)Marco...you might find that you can't reach the first shelf of your new cabinets if hung that high, and the space between the counter and cabinets would look much worse than a gap on top. I'd hang a box on the wall at the height you're considering, then put a sofa in front of it, mimicing the counters....then try to put away anything above the first shelf...if you can reach that. I have cabinets to the ceiling in my townhouse at 8' and love them. It's more expensive but a good place to splurge as it gives the kitchen a higher end look. In our new kitchen, I think they're 10' we'll have one wall with cabs built to the ceiling mimicing builtins of the turn of the century. We will do the same in the butlers pantry. Both will have a ladder (sliding) to access. I hate gaps so much that only the few pieces that will appear to be furniture won't be to the ceiling. I don't even want to make my housekeeper clean up there. (she's invisable now but i plan on having one some day LOL) This is a stretch...ut if I had to think about it...I'd rather have a soffit (and i've been accused of being a soffit nazi) than a gap. In any home I've been in I assume the decor up there is dusty even if it's not...which feels dirty to me. In a kitchen I don't want any spaces that encourage dirt to rest. I have a 4 year old...I have enough dirt that's easy to see...I don't like to think it's lurking above me! (Spiders love those cabs though...so if you like spiders they work well for their little houses)...See Morekrycek1984
