    Shout out to the oven company for paying for the new sink due to their error with the oven colour. Honestly so few businesses do the right thing that when it does happen they really, really, really need to be praised a lot. ❤❤❤ This happy accident really was a true blessing. 😍

    LOVE the backsplash. The spice rack looks so nice! Fantastic. You're really making progress around the 🏡! BTW, I think you could remove the metal panel on front of dishwasher and have it powder coated in the same biscuit color as the sink (or the stove enamel color), then re-install it! It would probably cost you about $100 to do it and everything would match! Something to consider.❤️

    • @denisejones1863
      @denisejones1863 Рік тому +2

      I really don't think that biscuit color goes that well with the Silver Mist paint. We will have to see it next to the cabinets. If anything she should get it a front replacement the matching brass color.

    For pretty spices I recommend being kind to the environment and buying your spices from a refilery or zero waste grocery store. You buy the amount you’d like and take it home in paper bags then put into containers of your choice. Instead of buying prepackaged spices just the throw out the packages. Obvi doesn’t include spices you already have hehe also it’s the one grocery store I love bc it’s sooooo organized and you don’t need to go once a week just every few months to stock up on dry goods :) 💕

It looks so right with the rest of the kitchen and it will be easy to clean. Love the spice rack with the brass rails. The lime wash looks so pretty too. Also the new sink looks so good. I like the softer color. The oven "mistake" was fortuitous. Things are looking great. What a cozy warm beautiful home you are creating. I'm loving the journey. ❤

    Hey!! I absolutely love your videos! Just a tip for tiling a wall: find exactly where you want your bottom row of tiles to land, and temporarily screw in a 2x4 horizontally so that your bottom row can sit exactly where they need to be, against the board, then build up from there and you won't have to fight gravity or have your tiles slide downwards throughout the installation process. Then, when the grout is set, just unscrew the 2x4 off the wall and voila!

    Love love love it!!! Weird things I noticed - plug your pocket hole holes (you can stain the plugs too!) and fridge side tile is not even in height with the larder side! But beautiful none the less of course!!!! 10/10!

    So glad you went with the bold tile choice! The beige options were too safe for your gorgeous kitchen! I love how it came out, my only question is have you thought about bringing the tiles all the way up the wall? Then only being on the bottom half doesn’t draw my eye up. Either way looks amazing 😍😍

    liking it more then I thought I would.. but I defo think the tile needs to be brought up all the way.. the rent vent is so hidden and I t would POP with the tile on either side. its more cutting but I feel like in the long run it'll be SO pretty.

I look as if I was run over by a truck after completing the simplest projects... a fully loaded triple trailer truck with extra large tires, to be honest. If you weren't so excellent, it would be very difficult to keep watching you do these amazing things in such a fashionable way. 🥵

    I recently had my kitchen redone and the tiler added a silicone seal all around the edges where the tile met the countertop, cabinetry and range hood. My sink is placed in front of the tile (not in the island like yours) so maybe that’s why but just thought I’d mention it in case you hadn’t thought of it!

    • @Edu_Kate
