Anyone willing to photoshop some curb appeal for me?
Comments (123)MetroMom- FYI: There is a post on the remodel forum from someone who bought a home with a painted brick exterior. I remebered reading it so I searched and found it! You may want to read his post before you proceed. I know you mentioned something about a concern re: possible transfer in future. http://ths.gardenweb.com/forums/load/remodel/msg021538463187.html?9 Hope this helps!

Comments (15)LOL mtnfever! On the right is actually a piece of framing that had to come down from elsewhere, placed here on my dining room floor for the time being. Behind it is the stack of sheet rock hopefully being installed as we speak. Together it looks a bit like a stage in the middle of my dining room, now that I see it with fresh eyes. I see how it could be confusing! The photo is taken from my entrance, there are two stairs to get up to the main floor. To the left is the stairs and landing that head up to the second floor. The dining room is immediately to the right/front and the kitchen is WAAAYYYY in the back behind the big beam/bulkhead. Hope that perspective helps a bit! Thanks to all for appreciating my late night ode. Breezy, nice to see you have internet again, I know your kitchen is fabulous so seeing your "before" helps me have hope that this process may end one day in a functional and pretty kitchen! CEFreeman I hope you'll get your finished space sooner than later! You clearly have much more patience and tolerance than me....See MoreShould I change the color of my kitchen cabinets?
Comments (4)15K live wire?? Just for painting? Although, I have to agree on that island. Here's what I would spend my money on in that kitchen. you see how this island is situated? I'd do one like this ( but orientate it so that it's square w/your stove. Then I would do a built in microwave and put it in the new island. Over your range I'd do a vent hood in a wood and paint it all to match the cabinets. can't really tell how much room you have. you do do a large square or a rectangle. Hopefully the island is built on top of the wood floor, otherwise you'll have to find some planks to fill in the spot you remove. Paint everything in your white, and get a new piece for the island. you could do a solid quartz. get new hardware, pendants over the new island, new stools. Just for a pro cabinet painter to come in and paint, would be in the 5-7K region. You want a pro cabinet painter, not a house painter. they have to remove everything and take it back to their shops to spray. it must be sanded and primed. if they merely paint them on scene, you're getting a cheapo job. Oh, and if you want a backsplash, you'll have to remove that 4" piece up the back. not a big deal to do...See MorePlease id these Begonias for me!
Comments (31)Bernie, Your leaf of Maurice may root but I kind of doubt it will make a plant. I had a leaf of some superba type canes (Sophie or Lana or maybe Irene) that rooted but never produced a plant. There was a grant from the ABS many years ago to a college botany study to see if there was a secret to obtaining a plant from a cane leaf - never happened. I wonder if tissue culture would work but I seriously doubt that too. The odd thing is some Asian cane looking types can be propagated by leaf such as amphioxus and brevirimosa. Go figure. I have all my begonias indoors now and looking halfway decent. back corner of the big utility room with many canes. Valida is the leaf floppy shrubby begonia. Mr. Hunt is too tall to fit under this light Taconite is the big leaf and Shaun's Dream is the green curly leaf rex my aconitifolia is nearly six feet tall. The cane is Comte de Lesseps. Virginia Jens is a big honking begonia. Judy Cook is a big rex like begonia My own seed grown maculata hybrid Syngoniums and a cane called Hazel's Front Porch in this aluminum pan (been in the same pan for years) Here is the newest stem coming up in the pan....See Morejuanital
