One of the most asked questions about my kitchen i

One of the most asked questions about my kitchen is:

What colour are your cabinets? 🎨

So here you go. 😉

When these colours from @farrowandball came out, I knew they would be perfect in my kitchen.

I wanted something warm and earthy and Stirabout, named after porridge/oatmeal in Ireland is just that. They describe it as the perfect oatmeal but I think it looks more the colour of a café au lait in my kitchen.

Having just one colour in a kitchen is boring, right? The Hopper Head is a beautiful contrast. It’s not as dark as Railings. It looks like two different colours in my kitchen but it’s the same colour on the island and the glass cabinetry. The island just looks lighter because I get a lot of sun in the space.

I absolutely adore these colours. What do you think?

I have shared this before but people still ask here and on FB, DM etc.

2024 Highlights ✨

Hard to distill 12K photos/videos into 30 seconds:
travel, dancing, concerts like @modernenglishofficial in London, work, volunteer work, painting (both kinds!), creative pursuits like making pottery, tennis, golf, hiking, yoga, family, friends, puppy hugs and more dancing…Grateful for it all especially Greg, Maya and Ellie who are my world. ❤️

More of all of this in 2025 please. And great projects with aligned clients. 🤞🏽

But mostly good health because it is everything. Don’t take it for granted. Taking care of my body, mind and soul will be a priority this year. 🧘🏽‍♀️

Travel destinations:
- Selected to be a DesignHound at KBIS, Las Vegas
- Volunteer work at Camp Widow in Tampa
- London, England for my birthday where I visited the street I lived on as a child
- Cotswolds - bucket list
- Boston and Vermont for museums, fall colours and good food

Excited for where 2025 will lead us all. xo

Cheers to a New Year filled with peace, happiness, and beautiful transformations! ✨

May your homes and hearts be filled with warmth and love all year long.

Thank you all for following along. I appreciate every like, share and comment.

(Except the hateful comments I deleted on that DIY post. The world has enough hate and anger. Channel that into something more productive and go hug a dog. 😘)

PS I found this Before video in my 17k photos. 🥹
Note to self: work on deleting some this year including the 8k screenshots that I never even look at. Anyone else?

And if you're thinking of doing a kitchen renovation or want to update your home this year, send me a DM.

Merry Christmas eve/Happy holidays! 🎄

I know the holidays aren’t easy for many. And I’m thinking of you if you are grieving someone this holiday season.

Wishing you peace, love and hope. ❤️

If you could say a prayer for my Dad who has been in and out of the hospital these past couple of weeks, that would be appreciated. Our health is the most important thing in life, besides happiness.

This is your sign to go thrifting for home decor.

This colourful, kitschy teapot was calling my name.

For $8 and paint and a gel pen I already had, it looks perfect with my other ceramic houses.

What do you think? 🤔 I LOVE.

Algorithm, do your thing. 🤞🏽

And if you have found me, send me an email or DM to start the conversation.

I love nothing more than ensuring your renovation budget is spent well on timeless finishes and a functional floor plan.
