Gray in the Kitchen
This is such a great example of a more modern take on the grey washed look in the kitchen. I love love that refridge but I am sure that I am not organized enough to have everyone see my food all of the time.
I love the marble though it makes such a clean look.

Grey wash kitchen cabinets
Okay so this is my new dream kitchen.. I love the grey wash on the cabinetry and the marble counters. I am not a wood paneling person but the exposed shelves for the dishes are the bomb! Okay now I know what I need to do, this with a dark stained island. I love it when I find something that makes my decisions so easy.Tuesday, February 21, 2012

The Dos and Dont's of Kitchen Decorating
Decorating magazines can be a great source of inspiration, but they can often overlook the basics. The problem is that basics are a big deal to the first-timer decorator. Getting your kitchen perfect is no simple process, and we can’t take anything for granted. So in order to help, we’ve assembled the most essential dos and dont's of kitchen decorating.
Do's
• Invest in a high-quality worktop. It is essential to the aesthetic and for maximizing space.
• Allow for numerous electrical sockets. You can’t have too many unless they’re eyesores.
• Separate the refrigerator from the grill, oven and similar appliances as much as possible.
• Make space for a dishwasher.
• Place base cabinets at least 21” deep.
• Place cabinets above countertops at least 30” high and 12” deep with at least 60” of frontage.
• Make your walkways 42” wide and your passageways at least 36” wide.
• Hire a professional fitter to connect the gas.
• Hire a professional electrician to handle all wiring.
• Hire a professional plumber to set up the water supply, waste disposal and drainage.

Dont's
• Overestimate cabinetry and cupboards; too much will make the kitchen seem smaller than necessary.
• Go with less than 144” of frontage for small kitchens or 186” for large kitchens (greater than 150 square feet).
• Allow for less than 15” clearance between counter and the bottom of wall cabinets; 18” is best.
• Carpet the kitchen. A kitchen floor will get wet, and it needs to be as hygienic as possible.
• Place a dishwasher farther than 36” away from a sink.
• Hang anything, including cabinets, over an oven or hob.
• Place an oven or hob directly beneath a window.
• Purchase elaborate window coverings. Simple blinds are the best choice.
• Underestimate storage needs. Any kitchen needs a combination of at least six drawers and cupboards.
• Account for less than 12” x 24” for each diner.
• Forget to place a smoke alarm and a fire extinguisher in the kitchen.
