What Makes The Perfect Holiday Kitchen
Seasons Greetings! Celebrations are upon us - time to enjoy the holidays surrounded by family, friends, gifts, food, libations, and more. The key to staying stress-free is by maximizing and prepping space ahead of time! And it starts in the kitchen.
The kitchen is the heart of the home, especially at Christmas time. It provides much more than sustenance, it's a space to gather for family fun and make emotional connections. Holiday guests usually equate to extra mouths to feed and larger meals (which means larger messes.)
To help you get ready, here’s a list of our best tips to get your kitchen ho-ho-holiday-ready. Check it once, check it twice…
What Lurks Behind The Wall?
Every building has a history within its walls. And sometimes, working on your home can lead to surprising discoveries... good and bad! Identifying problems quickly is the key to preventing extensive damage in the future, and a remodel is the perfect time for making repairs. While you are focused on finding that ideal kitchen cabinet or granite countertop, let the professionals deal with what might be under those cabinets and inside the walls!
Whether you’re revamping elements or gutting an entire room, here’s a checklist of things to look for during your next remodel.
Heart of the House: The Kitchen
If you’ve recently been out to your local Michaels or Hobby Lobby retail stores, you’ll notice several hanging signs that read, “The Kitchen is the Heart of the Home” - and there is a reason for that. Not only is the kitchen the space you spend several hours of your day in, it’s the part of the home that helps to sustain very necessary elements to life - food and water. In addition to crafting meals that nourish the entire family, most use the kitchen daily as a gathering place for conversation and bonding, finishing up homework, an end of day brief or to relax over a glass of wine. Whatever the case, the kitchen is the center of the home or shall we say, “The heart of the house.”
H2-OHH YEAH
March 22nd, 2021 officially marks the United Nations World Water Day. This year the focus is on the value of water, specifically what water means to each of us as humans that inhabit this beautiful planet of ours. So what a better way to not only talk about how important water is in the home, but how incredibly fortunate we are to live in this beautiful state. Colorado happens to be a headwater state and the origin of four major river basins, which supply water to seventeen downstream states and two countries. Now that’s worth recognizing!
February... A Month of Libations!
Renew The Home, Love The Home
February is known as the month of LOVE, which means we celebrate the rooms people tend to love the most throughout their home. When you think of what people love, you probably think of rooms like the living room or the master bathroom. But sometimes what people love most are the areas of their home that provide the best function. Areas like a laundry room, a mud room, a basement or even a closet. That’s right, people really love a closet! Well, a good closet.
Kitchens. Cabinets. Appliances. OH MY!
There is a reason for our ‘Wizard of Oz’ reference - designing your kitchen can either be a real ride through a tornado or a smooth ride through the clouds on a hot air balloon. Much like Dorothy experienced, following the yellow brick road through your kitchen design really does lead to the Emerald City!
So let’s follow the yellow brick road together!
