Anyone going to hear Sydney Eddison on Thursday night?
Comments (3)She was wonderful -- so charming and direct and enthusiastic and funny. Last night she shared her obsession with tender perennials in containers, how she disguises walls and frames views into her garden with them, and lots of mentions of how much she enjoys shopping at Logee's. Today at a workshop she talked about color, and showed some more really terrific slides. Her color wheel really is a nice expansion on the artist's version, and I think it will be fun to haul it around the garden and nurseries thinking about my garden. I plan to hear Fergus Garrett talk (and attend his workshop which is now sold out) in 2 weeks. Definite food for thot.

Comments (35)Finestra- we are the ones working w/ Dutch Wood, not Michelle (at least I don't think she is). I had posted the thread to let Michelle know our experiences. Anyway, we continue to be very happy w/ Dutch Wood. They are very quick at getting drawings done, very detail oriented, have noticed and fixed things when doing markings at the house our contractor didn't have right, and seem excited about our project (which involves some unusual things that create a lot more work for them) and committed to making sure it comes out right (I think Jason spent several hours at our build-site one day getting the angles perfect for a triangular bookcase we are building to go up to a peaked ceiling). We are getting full overlay cabinets, solid wood, 3/4 inch plywood, painted finish, soft close on all cabinets/drawers, etc, full extension drawers, and pretty much all glass on uppers. Lots of pull-outs, etc. Our kitchen quote is around $35,000 for everything you see below (not the countertops, those are coming from someone else): My photoshop mock-up to give you an idea, which is almost-but-not-quite updated to the latest version: Based on my quote sheet, it looks like 15.5 feet of painted base and wall cabinets along that cooktop wall is $418/ft. To take that wall of cabinets to out 9 ft. ceilings w/o any gap (other than for crown) is an extra $40/door. Extras and additions have been very affordable, and they do also have an econo-line grade of cabinets that costs less that we are using for our closets and pantry which is still solid wood, it is just 1/2 inch plywood instead of 3/4 inch plywood (note that going up to 1/2 inch plywood is an upgrade on some cabinet lines like Kraftmaid). There are a ton of "extras" included w/ Dutch Wood's basic price as well. Tom posted a brochure here: which can be found in this thread Our cabinets will not begin to be installed until May, but we did see a kitchen in another house our builder built that was made by Dutch Wood which looked wonderful and the more I see of their work versus other cabinets I see elsewhere, the happier I am that we went w/ them....See MoreI go For First Fill Thursday..

Comments (7)Nicole, don't know her name is but she's a geisha. There's also a matching samurai who stand tall over her which I would just love to find to complete the set. My DH gave her to me many years ago. There are no markings on it so I don't even know where to begin the search and the store he bought it at no longer exists. Jodi-...See Morenickel_kg
