Inspiration

So due to massive amounts of snow, no new photos to post. But, I thought I would share some lovely kitchens with you. Who doesn't love a good kitchen photo? The first picture is my favorite- look at that beautiful blue tile. If I have enough guts, I just may well......copy it.  The seagrass shade and the marble countertop are just lovely.

Yup, definitely going with carrara...honed so it won't be too shiny. Note to hubby, no red wine spills please :)    I found a great place this weekend for the marble countertops - Stone Technologies in Woburn.  They have a HUGE warehouse and tons of products.  Did I mention the warehouse is heated- no trudging through the snow. Apparently, there is a new product for marble that when applied, prevents staining- I know, sounds too good to be true, but worth a shot.   They have been featured on "This Old House"- if Norm likes them, then so do I.  Every house obsessed person knows exactly who Norm is.

The next kitchen is all about the cabinetry that comes down to meet the counter. Charming huh?

Our farm sink came this week....it weighs 158 lbs- not kidding.  Yes, it is  possible to love a sink-

and....every beautiful sink needs an equally beautiful faucet...I wanted functional...3 kids and a cavalier king charles who has been known to take a dip in the kitchen sink. The golden won't fit, but we will deal with that when designing the outside shower :)

It is by Rohl and has a slightly modern feel to it.

The last kitchen has our sink and faucet -  and an island that will be pretty close to ours.

 Now, the cabinetmaker (Sundance Woodworking)- super talented btw-  just needs to take all of these ideas and put them together....I know he can do it!
