White kitchen cabinets - thermafoil or wood? - We are redoing a vacation house after flood on a tight budget. Want white cabinets for beach look. Am I making a mistake to go with thermafoil? Want to do "on the cheap" but not stupid!! Thoughts? »
Jamison Howard Thermafoil is a product we have used many times in secondary baths and utility rooms on tight budgets. Clients have recently been able to get painted maple cabinets for the same price. Ask your cabinet designer about other cost effective options.
Is the floor solid brick, or are the bricks turned on their sides so as not to see the holes? Thank you! - Is the floor solid brick, or are the bricks turned on their sides so as not to see the holes? Thank you! »
Brick - Love this brick - I see you noted Boral's Shadow Stone as the brick used for the porch floor. Is that also the brick that was used on the house's facade? The two look so different. Thanks! »
Porch furnishings can increase your curb appeal. In this instance, classic black rockers and perfectly pruned topiaries add elegance to this home's entrance.
Rockers are appealing both from the exterior and the interior. Because they don't take up too much space, rockers can easily flank exterior windows, so as not to obscure an interior view.
Topiaries are a simple way to keep your outdoor planters looking fresh. For a burst of energy during parties or special events, a brightly colored perennial around the base adds pizazz.
Nothing conjures up relaxation quite as well as the Southern porch. Make the most of yours with classic shutters in a dark hue, lantern-style fixtures and easygoing porch furniture.
