Kitchen Reveal - Traditional Quiet White Kitchen
Comments (64)@erinf8 - The crown molding detail in our house is very odd. It is actually 1-3/4" picture molding mounted approximately 1/2" from the ceiling. Since the house is so old and the ceilings far from plumb, the 1/2" space can vary in dimension in any given room. The kitchen ceiling was terribly out of level as well. We feathered down the plaster as best as we could so the variances wouldn't be obvious. The final crown detail was actually a big disappointment of mine in this room. I could not get the cabinets guys or my carpenter to come up with a solution where we could get that 1/2" reveal at the top of the cabinets. We would have had to create extremely long scribes and had we not been running out of time, they might have figured it out. So at the cabinets the shadow line you see at the top is because the molding doesn't touch the ceiling there. It is a big compromise but when I look at the whole room, I try not to dwell on it. Sometimes working in an old house can be really challenging. I am glad I stuck to my guns and kept that little molding when I got a lot of unsolicted advice to use something larger. It just would have looked SO out of place next to the other rooms in our house. The space between counters and uppers is 18". The light colors make it all appear more airy, I think. Don't you love that salt box? I just got it two weeks ago at Crate and Barrel (Homestead Salt Cellar $9.95). It is the perfect size and it has a lid....See MoreKitchen Reveal - Brown Painted Kitchen
Comments (14)We replaced both our lazy susans. On one side we did a stack of drawers. The paint color is the same on both sides, there must a shadow on the photo causing the different paint color impression. The other side we turned into a recycling center. With the dead space between the pullouts, we store extra bags, stepstool, and the sharps container (our older dog now has diabetes). Open: One side of the pantry has pull out shelves:...See MoreKitchen Reveal 2! Dark Green, Black, and White
Comments (50)Go for the green! Not difficult to find white marble with dark veining but very difficult at my price range and to find the exact veining I wanted. Calcutta black was too expensive and I wanted very dark and not too close together. I found this one and was so happy and then they cut the backsplash on the wrong part of the slab by accident!! The left 1.5 feet of it was not supposed to be used, and that’s the one type of mistake that cannot be fixed. Oh well, I’m still happy with it but at the time boy was I upset (see slab and approved template below. Just shows every project has its problems. I also used enhancing sealer which made the veins darker. Sorry probably way more info than you asked for haha....See MoreKitchen Reveal - Before & After
Comments (32)@anna_682 you bet. Here you are: Vanity Vanity Mirror Vanity Light Wish we had the room for a ~30" vanity, but it just would have been too tight. There are so many more options in a 30, but we're happy with it. Looks good and is built well. The mirror for the price is extremely well built and we love the light....See MoreCheryl Hewitt
