How can I improve my kitchen?
I am not happy with how this looks, not sure if its the tile, knobs, stools, black fridge or what. Will SS frdge or new stools make a difference? Suggestions welcome.

(3) comentariosHi Cristina, your table looks very beautiful however I discourage to have such furniture at home because of the mirrors. I work as a feng shui consultant and I know that the mirrors have some kind of power and one should be very carful placing them in the house. My personal opinion is to have a mirror in the place where the mirror can´t see you while you are resting or sleeping because in long term it can have negative influence on you. The mirror was created to look at it and it shouldn´t be used extensively also because of the reflections of the light. The human eye naturally is used to see the light coming from certain directions, if it comes from the direction which is not used to the light, especially artificial one, it may effect your vision or have negative influence on your mood. I'm talking about something very subtle which sometimes may be felt after some time. Another thing is that I always encourage people to don´t use repetitive patterns in the house just simple irregular forms and calm and worm colours which make the space more cozy and more natural. If you need more help with the rest of your house please let me know. I could make a 3d visualisation of your place to shaw the layout.

(0) comentariosThe hood must be cleaned using neutral products (pH 7) that are neither alkaline or acidic: you must check that the product does not contain any harmful components such as sodium carbonate, acids, ammonia, or chlorine.If your hood is steel, it's important that you pay careful attention to the cleaning product you purchase, since the presence of the substances listed above can deteriorate the steel, leading to stains or spots of rust....Ver másHOW TO COVER A KITCHEN DUCT VENT
(2) comentariosHola SARAH: I've never seen those kind of vents. It's not that they look bad. They are simply strangers, but as CECILIA tells you, they will be valid in an industrial concept, as the photo joint shown. It's not a romantic atmosphere, nor for art lovers. It's just a little ugly....Ver más

hace 2 añosThis stool comes in many finishes. I like that if can be tilted and rolled away for cleaning instead of scraping feet on the floor. Has a nice farmhouse feeling, Probably not too comfortable for long term sitting, but maybe you don't need that.

hace 2 añosÚltima modificación: hace 2 añosWow, I’m overwhelmed with all of your ideas and suggestions. Thank you for taking the time and having the interest in helping me resolve my decorating problem. The backsplash is cloe white, I thought I made a grave error on this. The wall paint is cedar key, recommend by Kylie M. herself. She said it would go well with the cabs.
Just to note, the dining furniture is only temporary, below is what I am thinking of purchasing.
I will try to address each one of your ideas individually.
@Sherry Brighton Unfortunately, I can’t paint the walls. We just had the entire area painted during the kitchen remodel. It is totally open concept. But glad to hear SS fridge will make a difference.
@Patricia Colwell Consulting, stools are temporary, bought at restore as was dining table for 200.00 lol All to be replaced. Sink is prep only.
@lucky998877lno need to be sorry, good advice.
@Rachel Stark is the big issue, unfortunately, I agree about upholstery on the stools, just trying to figure what colour.
@Sherry Brighton, thank your for paint suggestions.
@Victory Home Remodeling is a new kitchen remodel, kitchen is very large and bright. 16x20 with 17’ high ceilings and DH hates white cabinets. Didn’t want natural wood as I have had this in numerous past kitchens.
@Anne Duke Accessories might be the answer, but I hate clutter. Any suggestions?
@MDLN Amazing photoshop, love the accessories too. Do you think white stools will be too stark against white counter? Is it possible for you to photoshop SS fridge if you get the chance? thank you
@cheri127, thank you for the compliment. This is a total remodel and transformation. I give credit Folks on Houzz for this layout. I have another thread on this. I’ll see about island outlet.
@Belahnl What colour pulls do you think would go well? I tried silver and chrome but they just didn’t look any better.
@decoenthusiaste I do like that stool, but I prefer a back. Definitely something to consider though.
@Debbi Washburn As noted above dining table etc is temporary. Yes, colour is needed for sure, I love red. Unfortunately, I can’t add a pendant, wish I would have done it earlier. DSIL is our electrician and he is tapped out, under cab lights still are not done (18 months later) So tweaking is all that can be done at this point. I am relieved to hear that is all that is needed, especially coming from your expert and pro opinion (:
Here are ideas of the dining table I am thinking about getting. The legs will be pedestal, however.
@cheri127 here are before photos. This was diy 18 months in the process lol

hace 2 añosÚltima modificación: hace 2 años@BeverlyFLADeziner I love your photoshop, was thinking of putting somthing abkve the cabs. The kitchen is large, open concept. The entire area is 1,000sq ft. (kitchkitchen/dining/great room. Large Windows, S, N, and W.
Dining set will be replaced with lighter set.
By the way, where did you fund the picture and vases. can you share the site.

or if dining were neutral -- how'd red stools work?

hace 2 añosÚltima modificación: hace 2 años@everdebz Thank you for your help. I am away so I cannot give you exact measurements. But to give you an idea here is a pic taken during renos. Also, are examples of table ( solid wood, custom made) I am considering, have not chosen chairs yet. Table legs will be metal and pedestal style, so not quite the same as pictured.
Just saw your previous questions, cabs seem darker in photo. They are cherry wirh java stain.
