We were immediately attracted to this industrial kitchen for several reasons. We’re suckers for DIY and we’re completely jealous of the amount of space this home owner had to work with.

Gary and Leslie’s Kitchen With A View Kitchen Spotlight
Functional and fashionable kitchens are always a success story. They look really pretty, and they are also pretty functional. There’s no point in having a great-looking kitchen if you’re haplessly bouncing around because it just doesn’t have the right flow.

Toaster or Toaster Oven: Which Do You Prefer?

My boyfriend and I enjoy much of the same foods. There are however, foods that we have very different opinions about.
