I can't take it anymore! (Kitchen countertop clutter ...)
Comments (69)Wow, I never expected so many responses! Thank you all. Admittedly, this is a minor dilemma but it's still one that affects the aesthetics of my home and I appreciate the understanding in that regard. DH and I do not have traditional roles and the fact that he does the majority of the "domestic engineering" does afford him some leeway. However, we both agreed when we purchased our home that we intended to keep clutter to a minimum. To that end, I spent a good deal of time this past weekend reorganizing and removing/rearranging some of the decorative items. He and I also discussed renewing our efforts to keep clutter to a minimum. It's all too easy to let it pile up and after awhile it tends to become a part of the scene for some people. We renewed our intent to guard against that. rgrs, you asked if I'd ever come up with something to hold the remotes, and I did find something tucked away in the china cabinet that's working very well! It's an antique soup tureen, which may seem like an odd thing to use, but I think it's lovely to look at and it's the perfect size to hold two or three remotes....See MoreCan’t choose countertop, Please help
Comments (22)Snowcap. I especially love how it looks in the last photo. To me, the Arctic reminds me of laminate patterns, including one I had back in 1985. If you like that effect, laminate might be worth a look. Some of the new HD laminates are expensive, but some might be just as pretty and cheaper than quartz....See MoreSOS...

Comments (8)According to [the designer[(https://www.houzz.com/photos/sherwood-forest-residence-kitchen-and-dining-transitional-kitchen-toronto-phvw-vp~5663062) the countertop is Giallo Ornamental Granite. Do you have the floor chosen yet? Also, at least a picture of the cabinets would help (since "cherry cabinets" could be a range of different colors). What is your layout like? As for other options for countertops, I would try googling "cherry cabinets counters" and start browsing and ~saving~ examples of kitchens you like - then you can see what is common in the pictures to get an idea of how you'd like your kitchen to look. Much better than strangers telling you things with no guidance (i.e. I can't stand the travertine tile look - so I would never suggest it, but maybe you love it - so without that knowledge, it's hard for us to help you)...See MoreHelp picking quartz kitchen countertops
Comments (16)#1. #3 is ok except you'll want to be sure how that dark line is used and matched across cuts. For me that's too much focus on that one aspect of the slab and it'll start to look like a scribble.. With #1 there's more depth and visual interest....See MoreStacie Holden-Rivers
