Okay, we finally decided on a house. This is the floor plan. We have a lot of changing to do now though. So, I am sure that when we are finished the house will look nothing like this original plan.
Here are some of the basics we have already decided... fiber cement siding, 30# shingles, custom colonial painted trim, fiberglass front door, stainless steel appliances and hood range vent. Whoo hoo.... boring stuff isn't it? Now, the fun stuff starts.. AND for me, the really stressful and hard stuff. Mostly because Shawn doesn't really care and I am really really picky, afraid to choose something I will hate later.
I am on a quest today though to make some decisions. I want to decide on kitchen cabinets. I am thinking about doing two different tones. One color/style on the walls exterior and another style/color on the island,. I know you are thinking... this house plan doesn't have an island... it will. OR one color in base cabs and a different on walls OR one color as a basic, and another just a few pieces to accent.
Here are a couple pictures of two tone looks I like.
So... I'm throwing it out there... what should I do? I really really like the black cabinets. But, am I brave enough???? That is the question of the day!

You are brave enough. Do it.
I guess the black cabinets would depend on if you enjoy wiping them down. Anything black or white needs to be cleaned more. I'm too lazy to have black - the burner covers on the stove are enough black to clean for me. I thought about doing that, too. I'm not brave enough. But...maybe they won't need cleaned much at all! Maybe you'll love them! Could always find a computer program that would let you view lots of different layouts and designs of your own house. That's what I would do if I were building. I don't have the imagination or creativity to design an entire house from scratch. Power to ya!
