Many cabinetmakers used Thomas Chippendale's book “The Gentleman and Cabinet Maker's Director” as inspiration for designing furniture in that period. Among his designs are a high-back chair with an elaborate Gothic tracery splat back.
Want to add some romance to your kitchen? Remodeling your kitchen with this style usually means lots of soft space such as a plush window seat or cozy breakfast nook. You should also add soft lighting throughout your kitchen to complete the design.
It’s important to remember that not every aspect of a kitchen remodeling project can be handled on your own. Whenever plumbing’s involved, it’s always a good idea to ensure you have a professional skilled in working around pipes.

Remember to budget for lighting. This important element of your home designing project will enhance colors, add drama and set the mood. One way to achieve a more dramatic look is to replace incandescent bulbs with halogen in recessed lights. It will immediately give your room a brighter, fresher look.
One of the most popular types of kitchen remodels these days involves upgrading the overall layout. Keep in mind that a kitchen layout is much more than simply a footprint of your kitchen. It’s going to be a blueprint for how your kitchen is going to function overall.
Best four-on-one networking meeting ever! 🤣 No those are not all mine and yes there were three other people at the event 🤣

Just had to share this from the saddleback swap meet today... How long has it been since you've seen marbles!? 🤣
For many families, a home renovation is as much about adding to their home’s value as it is about improving their comfort levels. When you want the best of both worlds for your money, you may want to consider a kitchen renovation.
Adding a matte and frame to this custom piece of art by this client's friend, Mary, really helped it make a much better statement on his wall. This is sitting on a very large, tall wall actually and looked a little lonely.
We actually hung it at the same height as the original piece of artwork but the new size brought it close to the sofa, making it feel more a part of the conservation. You can see how much depth and dimension this added to the already awesome piece of art!
Did you know that bamboo flooring is stronger and harder than any other type of wood flooring? Its tensile strength is actually higher than that of steel.
You don’t have to change your flooring when you remodel your kitchen. However, if you do choose to change your flooring - you have almost as many choices as you do with cabinets and countertops - from laminate to wood to tile.

Did you know that when it comes to kitchen remodels, in most cases, you will be able to recoup most of your remodeling costs at the sale of your home? This is why it’s recommended that you limit your spending to no more than 15 percent of your home’s market value.
Start shopping around for samples to bring into your home to help you find colors, patterns, and fabrics you like most. Visit home décor design stores and showrooms and ask for samples of fabric, upholstery, paint, tile, window treatments, or rugs. Take the samples home and take note of how they look throughout the day in different kinds of light.
Ready to upgrade your kitchen? Consider this popular trend: mix-and-match colors and finishes. Many designer kitchens are featuring painted cabinets in lighter neutrals like gray, taupe, and cream, coupled with wood finishes on islands and lower cabinets.
It’s important to remember that you don’t have to have a giant kitchen in order to remodel it. Even a modest kitchen can be get improvements that will make better use of the space and brighten its appearance.
Tile options for today’s bathroom are seemingly endless. Today, a popular choice is to mix and match various types of tiles to create one-of-a-kind designs. This design option is also being seen more in kitchen remodeling as well.
Not sure whether you want to create a new kitchen layout as part of your remodel? When considering your current space, think about how you move in the space, does it accommodate more than one person, are you able to easily move from the range to the sink, and how the workflow works with your normal cooking routine.
A good rule of thumb when it comes to planning kitchen remodels is to include more cabinetry space than you believe you need. This might include installing taller cabinets that reach toward the ceiling or adding an island with plenty of cabinet space.

After you know the start date of your remodel, you can prepare the area that’s going to be renovated by emptying cabinets, removing furniture, and protecting stationary items. By doing this work yourself you can save money and allow your contractor to come right in and go to work.
Maintain your kitchen’s wood floors by having them resealed every five to six years. Sealed floors do not need to be waxed, but should be resealed to maintain their look and durability.
