The house we have an offer in on needs a new kitchen and bathrooms. I'm totally excited by this because I'd much rather do the work and get to pick out my own finishings than pay for someone else's choices that I don't like as much (like black granite, hate). So now I'm obsessing over Pinterest and homedepot.com and drooling over glass tile backsplashes that are way outside my price range and that my H will never go for. It's fun though.
What does your dream kitchen look like? (Besides being the size of a roller rink. le sigh. Won't be getting that.)
Cabinets fo' days, marble island for rolling pie crusts
ROLLING LIBRARY LADDER ARE YOU KIDDING ME
Wall of windows that opens out onto the deck
Stove boner
Gimme all the aqua tile. WHY doesn't H like white cabinets?
BONUS NOT A KITCHEN Mermaid shower
Re: Show me your dream kitchen finishings
It is really fun to be able to make your kitchen what you want it to be. This is pretty similar to our kitchen, but the walls are a more muted orange (almost a yellowish orange). We even have the back door like this kitchen does. I love it!
Our whole house is orange and yellow. It's a very old house with a lot of wooden finishes and we thought those colors would go well. People thought we were crazy when we painted, but now we get lots of compliments on the colors! It's funny though, sometimes I drool over aquas and blues like you, even though that 's the exact opposite of our house!
We live in a house that was built in the 30's. It's very dark, with tongue and groove wood paneling, very cabin feeling. And while that's very cool, the next house I have will be very light and airy with lots of white, ivory and all that kind of stuff. Good call on no black granite @lolo883, we made the mistake of putting it in the kitchen when we redid it and now we really wish we hadn't. It's so hard to keep clean. It looks great when it is perfectly clean for about 5 seconds though. These are pics of my dream kitchen inspiration. ETA: I'm limited to what pics I can post at work, so this is all I got.
