  2. Who needs food when you have a kitchen like those.
    All really sparkly, white and right.
    Love that first one too.

  3. While the design by Jenny Peter's is so clean, so Italian and perfect, I wonder about all that wasted shelf space.Where are the real utensils needed for making a great meal? How about a stack of plates to eat of?

  4. Great selection of photos! I really like the mint green French doors in one of the photos. That last photo - Brocade Home offers a shadowboxed frame very similar to it.

  8. I love the first kitchen too. Homer's odd - I think Jenny Peter's kitchen is lovely but I know what you mean - if it was mine it would definitely not look as pristine. Jenny - I'll have to check out that showhouse. Thanks for all the comments everyone and Alkemie for the tip about the frame!

  10. First of all, so glad I found your site via PVE! I'm adding you to my list of dandy daily reads...

    The brick: white is your best bet if you would like a clean, neutral and seamless visual grouping, which will make your desk pop as a nice focal point. Also, the white will unify the brick and shelves therefore making that wall seem more expanded and less "choppy".

    Chocolate will cause a visual separation from your great shelves, making the wall seem more "broken up". I'm a big believer in visually expanding a space with creams and whites then adding punches of color and fun with personal accessories and art.

    For what it's worth, there's my two cents. Post pics when you're done! :-)
