Renovation Inspiration: 10 Kitchen Before & Afters

I love Darby's blog. I love her kitchen, too. My favorite part is how they really opened it up to the living room and made it feel nice and clean--while I love the open-shelving-style cabinets, I wonder how easy it is to remove the vertical strip that isn't necessary post-doors? That thing could go.

And if you haven't seen their fridge, you should run to her blog, that thang is amazing.

I've been using the freezer method for at least the last four years. I wear mostly dark, black or raw denim that would otherwise be faded and ugly if run through a washer+/-dryer. It's typically a practice for denim that's been worn-in to perfection or for jeans that don't stretch out; for example J. Brand, Nudies, Ksubi, LEVIS (capital E)...

I only do this about once a week, or especially after a night in a smoky bar. Just put the damn thangs in any plastic grocery bag and take 'em out the next day or whenever you want to wear them again. They aren't frozen, just cold. I also live in TX so it can be a nice treat in the summer as opposed to dryer-fresh hot pants.

I've always wanted to go into the ocean to set my raw denim, but the nearest ocean is the Gulf of Mexico. So that'll have to wait til I'm on a cleaner coast.

We got the Docksta 3 years ago and though we hardly ever eat at it, it's become a laptop desk and it's holding up very well. Don't use exacto knives on it w/o proper padding, it'll get cut up!
