I...Oh, the cabinet is to die for, just to die for. I love the pecan top against the white bottom. It really helps pull the room together more than ever. I mean, just LOOK at that yummy upholstered piece (the chair I will steal from you if I ever get to NOLA)next to it. Better than ever! And the kitchen, do it Honey! Go into the light! We just finished our kitchen a few months ago, taking it from one of the dingiest, most depressing rooms EVER (right MO?)to something light and elegant. And like you, we couldn't afford new cabinets, not even new doors. So, we thinned down the profile of the original doors and painted over the dark 1977 wood stain with a fresh, warm white. We made some other well chosen changes, and feel like we've moved into a new house. I'm so happy you're getting to do your kitchen; I know it's been on your wishlist a long time:)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-462500305642907315.post-42525510248392111582010-05-19T18:54:06.675-05:002010-05-19T18:54:06.675-05:00Love what you did with the Baker cabinet.
