My favorite features are 1) a 5 burner gas cooktop and electric wall ovens, 2 of them and 2) a large back entry that serves as laundry, pantry and contains a wash sink for those coming in from the outside and 3) a summer kitchen in one end of my garage for large canning/cooking family projects.<br /><br />I like a lot of windows too, but I would go for the bare look, just mini blinds.

With my current kitchen, I'd change the color of the cabinets to white since I like light and bright.

I'd love to tear out the existing computer desk (came with the house) and put a buffet there and put computer in another room. I need the space to serve with our growing family.

You can not have enough pantry! An important part of a kitchen to me is having drawers that pull out and bring the items to you rather than ankle height shelving behind doors is my favorite part of a kitchen. I have had this in the past, but do not have this now. It makes so much sense. I do not like standing on my head to get my needed item, my reading glasses fall off my head when I stand like that.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17781949624613137423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6454531829676162260.post-8770735938855524492017-01-14T13:48:03.269-08:002017-01-14T13:48:03.269-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17781949624613137423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6454531829676162260.post-31582134750773585652017-01-14T10:47:20.828-08:002017-01-14T10:47:20.828-08:00I love your kitchen, Julie!

My old kitchen was renovated 14 years ago and could use some updates (i.e. new counter tops and the addition of an island). It also needs some fresh paint. My favourite feature is that we left room for my mom's antique Hoosier cabinet which gives it the country feel that I love.Rosellahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14615262714438296920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6454531829676162260.post-34133450864984458032017-01-14T05:53:35.538-08:002017-01-14T05:53:35.538-08:00If I could change anything in my kitchen...where w...If I could change anything in my kitchen...where would I begin??
