We did IKEA cabinets in our kitchen and then decided to splurge a bit & get white SILESTONE countertops..our kitchen has a relatively modern feel to it....and we are working on making all the appliance stainless steel. However, IKEA was the best choice, i think we spent about $1500 total on all our cabinets...and 3 years later we are still happy with them. :)

Here's a pic of my kitchen on my blog, just scroll down through the other pics of my home:

GOOD LUCK!

Very good points. I've lost deposits before even when i obeyed the lease..some landlords are just plain unfair and money-hungry.

Jennifer here... :)
Thanks to all those who made nice comments & to those who didn't, I can live with that.
Now, I wasn't totally happy with this particular shoot, as the pics were shot with a flash (which in my opinion makes a room look even worse then it really is). However, it is what it is...right? SO, for those who prefer to see more of my home, in better lighting you can see other larger photos here: http://madebygirl.blogspot.com/2008/04/glimpse-into-my-home.html

I've lived at this home for 2 years, I am originally from NYC. So my style is pretty diverse. Someone mentioned a big city girl stuck in a small town etc. That couldn't be further from the truth. I am in Nevada (Henderson) - because of the terrible housing market, could not sell my home. So, I tried to make the best of it with the money I had. It is a work in progress & still not done. If it were up to me, there would be NO beige, everything would be more cohesive & flowing. I would NOT have carpets, but hardwood floors....since this isn't going to be my dream home, no sense in putting hardwood flooring in a 2,200 sq ft home....just way too much $ right now. I love all kinds of patterns & am very aware that my home will not be everyone's taste but I'm ok with that. Las vegas in general has tract home after tract home, it is VERY difficult to do anything different in this type of home....but I didn't want to be unhappy and buy Pottery Barn just because it fit the style of this type of house.

To me, the point is to decorate in the style you like....and i love color. Again, I am looking to do more things, get a new bed with a beautiful ornate headboard, get rid of the black hutch in the corner of the dining area, replacing some of the art near dining room wall and so on.

My mother always said, "don't worry, everything you want.. you will get done, little by little."

Thanks to AP & everyone! Feel free to visit my blog to see any of my DIY projects like the bookshelf against the staircase: http://madebygirl.blogspot.com

I've always loved this if I were to live in a small apt. This one in the main pic reminds me of the Carrie Bradshaws apt. in SeX & the CITY.

I love this idea...I had an ant issue in the past....so this would have been ideal instead of spending $$ to get a pest control company to come by.
Thanks!
