Jo’s post about Elmira Stove Works the other day seems to have caught alot of people’s attention. I’ve been wanting to do a Smeg post and have been collecting photos for a while so here you are…some Smeg envy.
Kitchen help
Posted on Thu, 28 Jun 2007 by KiM
Andrika, a Torontonian, emailed asking for some ideas for her kitchen redo. She has white cabinets and can’t decide on a wall colour. So I sifted through my photo collection and oddly enough, most of the kitchens I found with white cabinets had white walls. Here are some that I found with some fun colours. The one above is my favourite. LOVE the blue and green colour combination. The icy blue wall is incredible (!!!). If anyone has ideas for Andrika or has a favourite among these photos, leave us your thoughts in a comment. We’d also welcome photos if you think you have a great kitchen wall colour you’d like to share.
Rustic kitchens
Posted on Tue, 10 Apr 2007 by KiM
Although if I ever end up redoing my kitchen it would have a modern streamlined vibe, I still have a love and fascination for kitchens that are quite the opposite. I’ll call it “rustic”. You know, muted colours, pots and utensils hanging on the walls, lots of open storage to display beautiful dishes, and large furniture in place of cabinets. It’s such a welcoming look, imagine a big centre island with family and friends gathered around, helping with the cooking while sharing great conversation.
So it’s 7 pm and I’m starving. Too busy chatting with Jo on MSN to get up and make dinner. So I thought I’d post a photo of a really nice kitchen…that happens to be Sarah Jessica Parker/Matthew Broderick’s from Elle Decor. (And how cute is that Enzo Mari La Mela print?!?!)
