The White Kitchen Counter

White gives a fresh, CLEAN, bright, open style to a room. 

However, wood and deep rich tones lend warmth 

and a bit of a nice, old-fashioned home-y feel.

 Combine the two, and Voila!

 Here are some beautiful examples:

LOVE that last thick White Cliff Cambria!

Rich Brown Wood + Unique Kitchen Cabinetry

I admit it. 

I've stuck with white as the Main Event in my kitchens. 

I had NO idea I could have done at least as well--if not better -- with simply brown wooden cabinets.

Here's what I mean:

Last week I started to wax romantic about wood in "designer" rooms.  
I guess I was only getting started!
I adore each and every one of these rich wood cabinets.
Brown is Beautiful!


Have a Beautiful Day!

For the Kitchen: Glass Countertops and Glass Backsplashes

Glass beauty! 

There is such a huge variety of glass counter top looks for kitchens these days. 

A bit costly, but the shiny, natural, elegant look goes with any style. It can be made into any color and shape, and mixes well with other materials. Some really great ideas here...

enjoy!

If I had not noticed that it can cost $300.00 per sq. foot, I would have picked this as top choice for a kitchen renovation. But even a small part of the kitchen counters and/or backsplash can be done with glass...it is money (if you have it) beautifully spent!

Have a beautiful Day!

The Perfect Tiny Kitchen

The Perfect Tiny Kitchen can be such a gem, special because of its size.

Good, creative small kiitchen design creates a wonderful space in which to cook:

These kitchens are practical, good looking, 

and do not take forever to clean. 

Makes me want to ditch my huge kitchen! 

Have a Beautiful, Practical Day!!
