Craft Robo 2 Cutter or Raindrop cutter anyone?
Comments (2)I don't have either of those, but I have a Wishblade, (the older one) and I love it. I fact I'm just sitting down to do my first project since I started decorating for Christmas. I would think that newer could only be better. I love the scrapbook pages I've done with the WB. That is mostly what I use it for. - Gail...See Morerobo's u-shaped 2tone kitchen reveal
Comments (57)tbb123! Thanks so much for all your help with getting the layout of this kitchen right. The kitchen is great to live and work in and my husband, the cook, really appreciates the workspace. My only regret is not going with IKEA cabinetry as the semi-custom maker we used ended up being a little...not so high quality. We ended up having a roomate who is quite the chef for the past year so the kitchen got quite a workout. rmtdoug - don't know if you're still around - it was a simplehuman holder from BB&B -something like this: http://www.simplehuman.com/sink-caddy-brushed-stainless-steel Thanks Russ! Emily - I used inspiredLED ultra bright warm flexible strip. It was a bit of a hassle as my electrician didn't know to run low voltage wiring and instead ran big old regular wire...so my advice is to have all the lighting details worked out WELL in advance. The folks at inspiredLED cut the strips to size based on your cabinet plan and supply all the parts you need. I hardwired my system so I could have a wall dimmer. Lighting is still holding up well although we don't use the dimmers really on the undercab, maybe once a year I'll dim them for ambiance during a party. You will need an outlet somewhere the transformer can plug into (they recommend under the sink). Outlets in cabinetry in my province are I guess not allowed by code unless there's an appliance involved so, anyway, I remember there were some objections to my initial desire to have an outlet above the stove. Some of my counters are shiny and I ended up installing the strips to point back at the backsplash to avoid the points of light on the counter effect. inspiredLED explain how to do that....See MoreHey Robo, are you nesting yet?
Comments (143)Congratulations on your sweet beautiful Emmett mom and dad! I too love the name. Funny how they want to stay inside where it's warm and safe for longer. :?( ) What time was he actually born? I see this 16 hours later. :-). My advice rest while you can. :-)...See MoreRobo or others - Cape Chignecto
Comments (8)I took the cat this summer ! Some things to consider: its a loooong drive from advocate harbour, even on the highways it’s 5.5h. Unless you like long driving days I would recommend maybe splitting the drive into 2 days so you can take the secondary highways. The recommended route is down to Halifax and then back up to Wolfville, Digby and on to Yarmouth. You could also consider going cross country on the other side of the minas basin from advocate harbour (Noel shore) - some lovely scenery and only adds a half hour. There is also some lovely scenery from wolfville to digby on the secondary highways. The french shore from digby to Yarmouth is also very charming. I prefer this route to driving along the south shore (Halifax, Lunenburg route) You have to take the cat early in the morning in Yarmouth which necessitates a stay in Yarmouth the night before. Avoid the Rodd, go for B&Bs. They are familiar with the ferry and will have you fed and out the door in good time. Don’t forget to add loading/unloading/customs time to your trip estimates. i would pack food for the cat. I got seasick on it but I am prone to that. It’s not a money saver and it wouldn’t be a timesaver for you, so I would only do it if you really felt like a road trip....See Morelisaw2015 (ME)
