Which sink do you think would go best in our kitchen?
Comments (32)I think crazy fits me right now, lol. All this obsessing over details, that, like you said no one else will even care about.;-) I love ORB hardware and fixtures, and I like some ORB faucets too but am fairly particular about the finish on them. I love the stainless finish on the Danze but haven't seen the ORB irl to know if I'd like it as much, so I'm a little nervous to go that route. I'm sure any of it will be fine, and I just need to pick one and move on to the next detail. Thanks for the feedback on my kitchen. I am so excited to see it coming together and am grateful to you and all the others that helped so much in the early stages.:-) Beschenbach - The hardware is Amerock French Country. I have samples on the way from Knobs4less.com, and I'm hoping I like it as it's very inexpensive. I also found those and some others similar to it on Myknobs.com for great prices if you haven't tried that already....See MoreHelp decide best/cost effective solution to failing windows
Comments (6)Can you post up a picture? While your installation (by the way your recommendation for install type is comprehensive and you have obviously be doing your research. Kudos to you!!) is more complex, it is proper and recommended in this case. Nothing un-doable at that. You just need to pick out what kind of window that you want and then make sure it will work in your situation (i.e. new construction, flanged, jamb extensions, etc.). Something with an earthtone exterior or brown would look good I suspect. Can't go wrong with a really well engineered vinyl product but that will be a material shift for you. Fiberglass is another great option as well. Post back up and we will help you get sorted through all the details....See MoreHelp deciding which“size” & which color scheme gallery wall to create!
Comments (11)I have a gallery wall because I have too much art to display any other way. It is much more eclectic than any of the above inspiration pics, as it includes photos, paintings, wood-block prints, and a wood-burned piece, in a variety of colors and sizes (from 4"x4" to 30"x36"). There are white, wood, black, and gold frames. I laid everything out digitally before hanging, and what I found was that the key was balance. My two white frames are at opposite ends of the display, wood frames are scattered throughout, etc. I tried to balance colors as well, so for example red is scattered throughout. You want to balance the visual weight of things, which can be affected by the composition, color, and the presence of a mat. It's definitely harder to make a gallery wall work when you have a mix of pieces. And I'm sure some people would think my wall is too chaotic, but it pleases me....See MoreHELP...

Comments (21)Kayleigh - yes, refinishing them is going to take a while to do a good job that you're happy with for years. I'm a little concerned about the filled holes for the centered pulls, I've not tried filling holes and gel staining but from reading around wood working sites on the net, some fillers (even if they say they are stainable) do not stain to the same color as the surrounding wood. Do some research and ask when purchasing your products for the project so you can get the best, most blendable look possible. If you only want your cabs a shade or three darker (and the clear finish over the wood is in very good shape), I had good luck using gel stain as a toner of sorts, I applied it like a wax to a console table and tall bookcase, rubbed it on sections and then buffed it off with a clean cloth. Even though it is like a transparent paint, it also has staining properties, it stained the clear coat on my pieces just enough to tone down the orangey in one and darken up a too-light finish on the other. Just something else to add to your considerations....See MoreRelated Professionals
