Almost Finished - Gloss White Cabinets, Luce di Luna Quartzite
Comments (3)Sochi is right on many fronts. However, the material that pops to my mind when I hear high gloss white cabinets and Luce di Luna stone is white sheet glass splash. Not plain white subways. Well, not unless .... well, many many things. Certainly not the regular old white ceramic subways. Anyhow, I'd start with the white glass sheet. If not, I'd next drift to white 1"x4" (or so) glass mosaic and then take it from there. But I'd try really really hard to get me the sheet glass splash before I moved on....See MoreWhite kitchen DIY Doubts- need kitchen layout help!
Comments (9)(With no actual layout posted, it's hard to tell.) It looks like you will have close adjacent counters across from the fridge for a fridge landing zone? In that case, pick whichever scenario gives you the most room between the sink and the range. That is where you'll spend 90% of your time in a kitchen and you need to have the most space there. If the sink is not around the corner on the other leg of the L from the range, then do your best to center the range between the fridge and wall as that is what your eyes will focus on. If the sink is on the L, and you have at least 48" of linear counter space between it and the range after shifting it to the left, then that would be fine. Just don't go under 36" of linear space between adjacent sink and range....See MoreVinyl floor tiles on white glossed stairs
Comments (4)Why not a carpet runner? You can have any carpet cut and bound, and often a remnant is enough to do a staircase. I’ve used a sisal-look loop pile on stairs in three different houses with good results. Usually with a subtle herringbone pattern if I can find it. Goes with anything in a color like natural sisal....See MoreTo Gloss or Not to Gloss? High Gloss Cabinets or not
Comments (12)High gloss is not for me. Not because I don't think it can look good in certain applications, but because I would freak out at the first scratch. I learned my lesson (for me only) long ago on furniture and cabinets. In my first home I bought very expensive solid cherry coffee and end tables with a nice beautiful shiny finish. The cat went skidding over the coffee table and left a scratch about ten inches long. There was no way to hide it, buff it out, cover it. I'm better with painted or natural wood finishes that are more forgiving. If you don't have kids, dogs, cats or a spouse, it's probably fine. I remember my nephew once tried to figure out if a piece of jewelry was a real diamond by scratching the glass face of a vintage clock. Yeehaw, it wasn't a diamond but it did scratch the glass......See MoreSam Biller
