*Update: I've had a lot of people ask for the formula for the paint match of the Adel White color. Here is a bad cell phone picture of our paint label and I will try to take a better picture soon!
Found you from the discussion at Aubrey + Lindsay's blog ... funny how I can only see the off white-ness in the upper cabs. This leads me to suspect (as you pointed out earlier) that the difference in whites is an artifact of over scrutinizing or photography. Lovely reno!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely! I'm a novice when it comes to photography so that combined with the bad lighting makes the upper cabinets look more "yellow" than they are in real life! :)
ReplyDeleteI think the close up shot of the open shelves is the best representation of the color of each element: cabinets, counter, and subway tile.
Love your shelving and choice of items to place on them. Very nice overall. Mom of "Cape27blog".
ReplyDeleteLots to love in your kitchen!! Quick question, how does the door opening against the fridge work for you? We are considering a kitchen remodel option that would give us the same setup but were interest if there were any cons that we hadn't thought of. Emma
ReplyDeleteLots to love in your kitchen!! We have actually picked out several of the exact same items for our upcoming remodel. One of the layout options that we are considering would also have an interior door opening against a built in fridge. Is there anything you don't like about this set up?
ReplyDeleteEmma
Thanks for your note! We have no issues with the door opening towards the fridge. Its actually the main door we use so we come in/out of that door several times a day. We just put a small door stop thing-a-majig to prevent it from banging against the fridge - just one of those small, discreet door stops that attaches right onto one of the hinges. I can email a pic of the stop and the open door if it would help.
ReplyDeleteThanks Liz! We actually ended up modifying our layout at the last minute so that we no longer needed the interior door to open against the fridge. We just ordered our cabinets and I'm very excited. Hopefully, our kitchen will come out as nice as yours! That paint match is super helpful.
DeleteOne other question, how did you attach your molding to the wall cabinets? We also having crown and the only way I can figure to do this is by screwing/gluing a cleat to the top of the cabinets and nailing the molding into that.
Ah geez.... nevermind I just found your molding post. I can't tell you how helpful that is. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!! Looks like you chose the glue method.
DeleteGood luck with your kitchen! Just stay as organized as possible (and patient) and I'm sure it will go great! Luckily there are so many blogs and message boards out there that will help with any hiccups you might run into. Have you been to the ikeafans.com website? We found that really helpful.
DeleteAs for the crown moudling, we attached a cleat to the top of the cabinets. We first used epoxy and then just used pin nails on the few cleats that didn't cure all the way. You could probably just stick with the pin nails rather than deal with the smelly, messy epoxy. Our pin nails are on the inside of our cabinets and you dont even notice them. We didn't really plan out the crown moulding until after we had the cabinets up. If we had, we would have secured the cleats to the top of the cabinets BEFORE hanging them - that would have been so much easier since we wouldn't only have a few inches of space to work with between the ceiling and cabinet!
There are a few more details here but definitely let me know if you have any questions! http://anexcellentadventure.blogspot.com/2012/03/crowning-moulding.html
Thanks again! Yes, ikeafans is a God send... We've ordered the cabinets so there's no turning back now. :)
DeleteWhat size spacer did you use for the subway tiles?? Planning to put subway tiles in my kitchen but I am debating on the space between each tile and the grout colour.
ReplyDeleteI found your site through just beachy.
thank-you for the info.

I believe it was a 1/4 inch spacer and we used white grout.
