Wow! I must say I love the internet and this site - 50 responses! And yeah, I did notice earlier that it is split right down the middle - paint v. DON'T paint. So, while I'm no closer to a decision, I've got lots of great ideas to ponder. The chairs are old EQ3 - don't think they're making them any more.

I don't know if anyone is coming back around to this, but I ended up putting them all in a fabric Ikea drawer organizer (they come flat and you zip them open - use them in the sock drawers, etc). Put them in the cabinet below the counter and voila - no more onion/garlic skins on the counter! And I don't have to deal with one more thing ON my counter. Thanks to all for the comments.

Yes, Ikea cabinets and Dal tile. I bought extra cabinet doors when I purchased them (they were already on sale so I knew they would be gone soon). I do love them, but they do scratch if you're not careful. The countertop...not so much. Wish I had ponied up and bought the Caesarstone...but what you can't see is the 10-foot island that is opposite the counter in the picture. And the new roof, and the new plumbing, and the new windows and doors...so, yeah. Cheap Ikea countertops. Thanks to all for the input!

Thanks for all the suggestions...I think under the counter, in a box, will probably work best because the whole kitchen is sunny with windows on 2 sides and open to the main living area, so there really isn't a place to keep them dark above the counters. So now, can I throw out a secondary question...hanging baskets or no, in general? I go back and forth. I love the idea of lining it with tea towels. But then the stuff in the top basket always gets ignored. Small plant perhaps? Something else decorative? Or is it just too messy all together?

I have this lamp too, and bought mine at Scandinavia Design in California (it's the knockoff, but it still looks great and the base is heavy). I think it was around $250 or under new. Good Questions: Where Can I Find This Lamp? |
