How are the subway tile edges finished in the bar area? - We are about to do beveled subway tiles in our kitchen and have 2 outside corners and trying to find the best way to do those edges/corners. Thanks!! »
Home Repair Tutor Do the tiles come in a bull nose variety? You could also finish the outside with glass tile that's long and narrow, say 1/2 inch thick.
kjh72 It's hard to tell what color the tiles are, but Adex is another tile company that makes a beveled 3x6 subway tile. They offer the glaze solid or crackle finish.
So, is having the oven doors opening by crossway/doorway an okay safety design? I thought you weren't supposed to do that? Also, when I was young and my parents remodeled a lot I was taught to never put the fridge next to the stove/oven. Is that okay these days? I see a lot of that in other pictures... »
mousemaker i'm glad i'm not the only one who worries about the safety factors :) i see a lot of pictures that make my toes curl :)
i agree that the large appliances should be separate..it would look better as well.
Rebekah Zaveloff | KitchenLab I'll let Janell answer more specifically if she sees this, but I can take a stab at it. Very pretty!
The countertops look like Santa Cecilia Light granite or Giallo Ornamental.
The cabinets look like an ivory - not sure what brand, but most cabinet companies have a standard ivory color to choose from. If you're doing custom, you can do any color you want. The floor looks like oak with a walnut stain (though it's tough to tell).
What color grout to you choose? - We are building a home and have chosen similar design/colors as this. I am also using beveled subway for my backsplash in the kitchen in same color but am going back and forth on grout color. Do you mind teling me what color this is?
I was also wondering if you are happy that you also put backsplash in the butler's pantry? We had wanted to do that but they put the granite backsplash up there on accident. I was wondering if it is worth the trouble removing? Thank you!! Kristin »
I have an open floor plan and have Sherwin Williams Netwok Grey in my familyroom that I want to keep. Will Universal Khaki go next to that color? I am thinking of using it in my kitchen which is right next to that room and also my livingroom and family room. »
Decorate with fruit (and not of the plastic variety). Fresh fruit is an economical and healthy decor option for the kitchen. When fresh options are visible and readily available chances are we may never reach into the cabinet for that bag of chips.
this could be our kitchen looking into the laundry area pantry with shelves, a cabinet for hidden storage...more organized storage....i also like the hardwood floors and the cabinet combo with warm granite counters.
