You definitely were a visionary to use marble for countertops and beadboard in the hutch. You designed a kitchen that is timeless. It's almost as if you were able to see into the future - white cabinets, marble counters, stainless appliances and a farmhouse vibe - you my dear are a decorating genius!!!lalahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06175627717826309153noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-780745603109193534.post-65380577326716245482015-11-05T07:40:51.661-05:002015-11-05T07:40:51.661-05:00I loved that home from the first time I read about...I loved that home from the first time I read about it. I have been in love with Universal Design ever since. We've moved many times and have re-done many homes during my husband's career. We've always tried to make our homes fit our needs. I don't understand why homes are not made for the entire family-young, middle and elderly people can all be accommodated with a bit of forethought. Thank you.

I also wonder what happened to the heating outlet than runs behind it? I like to make things my own, but recognize perfection when I see it.<br />The sink detail is really amazing. It's this sort of creative solution that separates the pros from the wannabees.tdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09199794368872469039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-780745603109193534.post-7357976363338344872015-11-01T20:50:17.262-05:002015-11-01T20:50:17.262-05:00Beautiful kitchen.

A bit of paint and it all loks good to go for the next 20 years! I am just redoing my own kitchen after 25 yrs of daily hard use, it surely was time for an upgrade. I did have a little cry when my husband pulled off the old hand painted botanical backsplash tiles, but they just wouldn't have worked with the new soapstone counters. But he saved them and will make me a nice tray so al is not lost.<br />Looking forward to seeing your new fabric line, even if the price will be daunting :-)Doloreshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14976716820706916780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-780745603109193534.post-16199611559353548122015-11-01T16:12:54.180-05:002015-11-01T16:12:54.180-05:00Love this kitchen and I much prefer the walls in y...Love this kitchen and I much prefer the walls in yellow.
