I did a Guest Post over at Nesting Place today! So when you get a chance, flap those wings and stop over at Miss Nester's blogspot!
I'm creating design plans in my Office again today, but Kevin is putting the finishing touches on the extra moulding on top of the kitchen cabinets, to make them look taller. I'll post the tutorial here very soon!
Thanks so much for sharing. Your guest post is very informative and inspirational. It is full of great tips and advice. I love your home and what you've done to it so far, it is so pretty. You do have a fabulous talent for design and you obviously pay close attention to the details. Great job. Hugs, Marty

ReplyDeleteOh, and I can't wait to see the finished cabinets/tutotial. I really want to do this to the top of my kitchen cabinets.
I look forward to your instructions on adding the crown to the cupboards. I am planning to do the same thing to an old Ikea bookcase. I plan on crackling the new paint but have to see if it will work over the blue Ikea finish.
ReplyDeleteI am soooo looking forward to the tutorial. I plan on doing something very similar to our cabinets. Sooner than Hubby thinks. ;) You are truly inspirational and I love watching what you do!! Have you heard from Deign Star yet??
ReplyDeleteUm excuse me but that's my logo in a BEautiful color!!!! Girl, you and your photo shoppin' skilz! Please--can you email that logo to me in those color so I can use it?!
