Help me pick out countertops!
Comments (21)Oh how fun! They are all great. I think the layout and templating will make all the difference though. I like #1 but it's upside-down from how it was in the ground, so if I had that one I'd have to orient in correctly. I love #4, the wave is essentially a preserved sand dune. The sqiggly line in #3 was originally a thin layer of clay that became rippled as the rock was compressed and sheared. #5 might be the best for easy templating. It's uniform, yet still interesting. If you were doing an island or a big expanse, then I'd go for #4. Lucky you to have so many great choices! Have fun deciding....See MoreHelp me pick countertops and backsplash
Comments (13)I think you are very wise to consider countertops and backsplash in common. So often here we see someone who has chosen a busy countertop and none of their backsplash choices work because they are also busy. Best to have a plan going in so you can prioritize which is more important to you I don’t think you have a big enough backsplash area to really show off those beautiful slabs. So I’d go with A for your countertop and choose a backsplash that works with it....See MoreHelp me pick new counter top!
Comments (11)“What do you think of off white or gray with my cabinets?” Hi Barbara, I don’t think that particular gray is a good idea. May we please see images of the entire space that include your floor? Do you have any inspiration images you can share with us? They can be incredibly helpful. Just google images of kitchens with oak cabinets and show us a few that you like. Here are a few I’ve found....See MoreHelp me pick some counter stools
Comments (7)Doesn't look like there's much overhang of the counter and you'll need access to the doors under the island. Straight leg stools will scoot closer than those with splayed legs sticking out in front. You can have them splay in back or to the sides but not toward the island base. I like this one because it looks less likely to tilt with a toddler pulling on it, and easy to roll away from the island for cleaning and access. It may be too rustic for you and supplies are limited now. They used to offer them with all different colors for the seats....See Moresmalloldhouse_gw
