22's Profile

I'm a granny and if that's what's you call your grandmother (whose room this is), who can object to identifying this room. I, for one, love it. Like the neatness (research shows it is UNstressifying) and lining up the shelving. You could put any color you love behind the shelves.

Like the clean, fresh, readable, uncluttered look. The white gives you a nice background for whatever you run.

Thanks for this core list, which we can each adjust to our own needs. Personally, I do like to keep the kitchen clean (and ant-free), cleaning counters (those anti-bacterial wipes make it easy) and washing dishes as used. I like Michelou and her husband's plan to set a timer for a 10 minute limit and get done what you can. Also, thanks to Mrs. Mouse for letting us know about the iPhone app that does all this planning and lets you personalize it.

Learned so much from this piece and from Amanda. Skip the colorful doodads available for kitchens and stick with simple, fresh and clean.

In some photos the cabinets look white and in some they look as if they are painted that lovely neutral Old Prairie shade (that perhaps has an ever-so-slight amount of green in it?). Can you clarify?

I'm a grandmother and can only dream that my granddaughter might one day honor me as you have honored both of yours.

I can see where this would be a wonderfully efficient, time-saving kitchen for a professional cook; I wouldn't last a week. Everything being out in the open makes it too distracting for me.

I'm with ndj99987. I'm always relieved (and cooler) to get out of the bathroom and do my hair in front of the mirror in the bedroom. There's elbow room there and storage room in the dresser for a dryer.

Pretty wonderful and clever. Wondering why you say you need four boards. I only see one.

I love books. Love them. I donated many of mine to the library and, when I miss them, I visit them there.

Thanks for this coverage and letting us know the wide range of Martha Stewart style now accessible to us at Home Depot.

What color would you paint the vanity, if you could paint it? Match-the-walls gray? Same white as the counter? Wondering because I like the new, cleaner look and would be able to paint the vanity, too.
