I must be crazy.

We're going to redecorate our entire first floor and the exposed hallway upstairs. Not going to move any walls or replace the hardwood floor, but new kitchen cabinets, counter, appliances and lighting, new paint/paper all around, carpet where it is carpeted now, window treatments, refinishing and reupholstering some pieces, new interior doors and front door, remodeled powder room.

We met with our designer this morning and started looking at cabinets this afternoon.

I must be crazy.

The palate will be taken from this rug. Below is a pic of the dining room where the rug is. We're probably going to change from focusing on greens to on blues, yellows and whites.





For the kitchen we are thinking blue lower cabinets, white uppers, both hickory with grain showing. Probably just a flat front contemporary. Quartz countertops, new backsplash TBD. Sorry, I don't know how to resize pics here.

Nice. That'll keep you busy for a while.

Quite an ambitious project! But fun.

What's the situation with contractor availability?

p.s.....I threw your pics on postimages and resized them. I hope I didn't accidentally delete anything....

The pics look fine. Thanks.

I've already got my contractor lined up for summer. This will be our third project together. He gave me the recommendation on a designer. We really like her.

Exciting stuff!

I like where you’re going with it!

Sounds (and looks) lovely. But OMG, I am NEVER remodeling or building AGAIN.

I really like the mixed colors for the cabinets. When we did our remodeling we ended up with mixed countertops because we couldn't afford to use our favorite slab everywhere because we have such amazing designer spidey sense.

I've since seen that mixed colors are the next big thing. You need to show us your progress!
