KITCHEN REVEAL

I have this thing for white kitchens. Clean, simple, timeless. White on white on white...sounds like an easy design process, right? No. For those of you who didn't know, there are about 1,804,357 shades of white paint, counter tops, tile, and cabinetry (Exaggeration? Probably). My poor husband got really sick of choosing between stark white, warm white, winter white, and silver white Quartz options. So, with that in mind, let's talk white when it comes to our kitchen!

COUNTERTOPS : Vicostone - Arctic Snow

  • Vicostone has lower price points than many other brands
  • Artic White is a not entirely a solid pattern, but consists of multi-shaded white speckles
  • TIP: We saved about $800 on quartz because of our sink selection. Because it was an apron sink, we saved on the labor required to cut a sink hole, as well as about 6 sq. ft. of material.

PAINT COLOR: Benjamin Moore - Simply White

  • We used this paint color in our ENTIRE house. It is Benjamin Moore's 2016 Color of the Year. This white has a subtle milky, creamy tint to it. It is the perfect balance of modern and warm. 
  • We actually used a different paint color for our trim (windows, base boards, doors). BENJAMIN MOORE - CHANTILLY LACE. Chantilly Lace is stark ultra white, giving it a nice contrast to the Simple White.
  • TIP: Most people think that it is absolutely necessary to match white walls to their white trim, but a contrasting white on white will give your home more dimension and character.

LIGHT FIXTURE : Menards - Patriot Lighting Pendant

  • Great option for under $100

US SCRATCH OFF MAP: Amazon - see link below

  • We have received many inquires about our travel scratch off map. We found this on Amazon for $22! We have enjoyed scratching off states after weekend trips (It also is making us absurdly competitive with the map...we are desperately trying to figure out how to justify a random trip to Nebraska) 
  • TIP: This would make a great Christmas gift for a friend or wedding gift for the newly married. 
  • See below for the VINTAGE HANGING KIT, also from Amazon.

SINK :IKEA Farm Sink

  • If you are looking for an apron sink, IKEA is a great option. I would have loved to go with a black granite or stainless steel option (this farm sink is slightly more country than my sink of choice), but the price point on this bad boy can't be beat. 
  • It is the perfect width to go with a standard 36" cabinet base. Keep in mind that you will need an apron sink to fit perfect with your cabinet to keep the plumbing in line.

TILE : Shaw Elegance White 4x16

  • A 4x16 tile is an more modern, updated alternative to traditional 3x6 tile. It offers the aggressive price point of subway.
  • We opted for a medium gray grout color to give a little bit of contrast.

HARDWARE : Amazon

  • See links below
  • Matte Black hardware nearly IMPOSSIBLE to find without a $$$$$ price tag. Amazon was the only place that I found viable options for reasonable prices.

FAUCET : Amazon VIGO Matte Black

  • Link below
  • Matte black faucets generally hurt the wallet, this one was a gift from Heaven. So dreamy for just $150.

Gold Cups : Homegoods

  • The cups where from Homegoods. I saw a similar set at West Elm for $9.99/piece. I found these at Homegoods for $2.99/piece. They are the perfect splash of gold.

FRIDGE ART : Amazon Magnetic Polaroids

  • I hate raw fridge edges. Despise them. Have nightmares about them. To remedy my disdain for them, we elected to show off our family and friends via these photos.
  • I purchased these frames years ago at the dollar store. They are no longer available there, but I found a nearly identical option on Amazon. See link below.

FLOORS : Shaw - Grand Mountain 

  • Because I work in the flooring industry, I was very picky about what I put in my home. You better believe that I considered every option on the market.  I knew I wanted a wide plank. Wide planks are updated, grand, and make a space feel larger. 
  • After I considered hardwood, laminate, and vinyl; I settled on laminate primarily due to the price point. This laminate is GORGEOUS and I do not regret the decision. This floor has incredibly realistic hardwood texture, and is hard and durable.

STOOLS - Amazon Winsome Stools

  • Link Below 
  • These stools are nothing fancy, but they are $25 EACH! What? Yep. $25. I was looking for something simple, so these fit the bill (literally).

We hope you enjoyed a tour of our kitchen! Come back soon!

Beautiful home!! Where did you get your white dinner plates & bowls? We host our (huge) family a ton. Trying to find an option that we can display on open shelving that doesn’t stack incredibly high. So far, I’m thinking Corelle (bonus for durability) or looking into a restaurant supply store. Would love to know what you have!

Hi! Thank you! I have 8 siblings, so I know what it’s like to host a big family! Haha. We actually got these at Bed Bath and Beyond. I love the plates because the have a slight beveled ended so they keep sauce and dressing from spilling of the edge. The shallow soup bowls are perfect for exposed shelves also because you can stack 12 of them and still only sit 10” tall. Hope that helps!! Good luck!
