The carnivorous plant forum should be able to give you better info than here.

I agree Devonshire the tub spout is really plain, however, I don't really like the one she suggested as I don't think it goes with the Devonshire suite--it's a little too modern looking to go with the Devonshire shower controls. With that being said, I have never thought the Devonshire shower/tub pieces matched the elegance of the Devonshire lavatory faucet and Roman tub filler faucet. I would be very tempted to use something different that has the same elegance of the lav faucet & that coordinates well with the Devonshire lav faucet for the shower & tub. Is this going over a regular tub/shower combination or over a dedicated tub? Here are some spouts I found doing a quick google image search that may coordinate with the Devonshire suite better and give that extra 'pop' to the bath: http://www.tubz.com/images/riobel/ED05L.jpg http://www.amazon.com/Newport-Brass-3-925-26-Filler-Chrome/dp/B004D54XV0 http://www.efaucets.com/detail.asp?product_id=13283002 http://www.tubz.com/images/cifial/231.885.721.jpg If its going over a standard tub/shower combo, I have some other ideas I can offer up too. Hope this helps!

First of all, I think, like many of us, you may be overthinking it just a tad. We all do it on occasion, and then we end up freaking out about it. So here's what I think: 1. I don't think your bedding and your bathroom fixtures need to coordinate. 2. If you feel like they should coordinate (and if you feel that way that's all that's important), I still think brushed nickel, which is sort of an antique look, will be fine even if the color scheme is warm. 3. The last thing I'd do is throw some ORB into the mix. I'd be far more concerned about mixing finishes (which is often OK, in my book, but I sort of feel like the smaller the room, the more important it is to keep the number of finishes to a minimum) in the bathroom than worrying about whether the fixtures match the bedding or the wall color. To me, fixture finishes "match" basically every color ... it's just a matter of the "feel" you're going for. Deep breath. I'm sure you're sick and tired of making decisions but at the same time you don't want to screw one up and have it bother you forever. It'll be OK!

Thanks everyone for your great comments! Buehl, love your idea but sadly, no, I can not close up that window. It is the window to the street, the porch and I love it. Even if I didn't love it the Historic Preservation people would never let me get rid of it. So it stays. It sounds like you all agree adding the fourth counter makes it too small. What if the counter was 18 inches instead of 24? Would 6 inches help much? I still need storage underneath. Bmorepanic - you are not the first to propose cutting down the other side. A second designer I hired suggested cutting that down to a 15-18 inch pantry only (pantry for dishes, not food - food pantry has a good home) floor to ceiling piece of furniture painted a different color. I actually love the idea but here's the rub...that counter is totally our favorite place to work. Our dishes are in the uppers there and that works with where the d/w is...we hate to mess with that part of the space. I am thinking I could make something that was a pantry-like cabinet but still had a counter...not as deep but we could still prep over there... and keep the 24 under the other window. My husband and I don't love the bigger counter moved to under "street" window because it is weird to face the street while you are prepping...and at night the blind comes down and that is even more strange. At the other counter you are facing whoever is sitting at the counter so that seems a happier place to work. Our goal in adding the counter under the window was to have a place to plate the food out of the oven. We also have to have room to store: all kitchen gizmos, pots and pans (we have alot) but I think we could also hang some. I would also love to have a spice drawer, pull out pantry for oils, and a tray storage. Am I high to think I can get all of that in? I know if I go shorter than 20inches it won't happen. Ugh! I can tweek my plan now but I have to decide by Monday if the counter under the "street" window is 24 inches or less. If it is going to be 24 inches then I have to reconfigure the garden window so the sink can be centered. If it is under 24 inches then I can tell my GC to center the garden window and take another week to figure it all out. But not much more. I would love to hear more ideas - it is so helpful to get input from people who understand kitchens as opposed to someone who designs kitchens. My guy threw boxes and uppers everywhere and now I fear I am cooking in a space the size of an airplane bathroom. Here is a link that might be useful: amacs renovation blog
