Kitchen Inspiration


This weekend was filled with too much almost new house talk. Nick and I are totally like that - the second we get our heads and hearts into something we talk it to death. Seriously - that house will be fully designed by the time we maybe move in considering we still have 90 days to go.

This time around we have decided to go with something bright, contemporary and sleek with some unexpected sparkle!

Our last kitchen re-do was inspired by two kitchens. Here they are in all of their dark design deliciousness (totally channeling my Martyn Lawrence Bullard).

Nick and his Home Depot friends custom created a dark brown/black oil based paint for our cabinets. After a week of stripping then sanding and sanding and sanding then painting and painting and painting and painting, they were hung back up, fitted with new jewelry (kitchen pulls) and wooo boy...talk about room changing! They were amazing and totally fit with the look of our design scheme.

Our almost new house on the other hand doesn't quite have that modern vibe.

Maybe because it is 52 years old and clearly not brand new - which we LOVEEEEE.

Anyway here are some kitchens that are throwing our panties into a HUGE bunch. Major love coming from these Salzwedels.

  1. 5th one from the bottom (the all white kitchen), with a big clear vase of lemons on the counter! Making cherry cobbler in that kitchen- oh my gosh, Real Simple magazine worthy :)
