I've always dreamed of having a white kitchen. For me it represents a traditional and timeless look, much like a classic white shirt that never goes out of fashion. When it was time to select cabinets and countertops, we went to a big box store. The cabinets were nice, but they didn't quite match what we were looking for. Our contractor suggested we consider custom cabinetry. We were hesitant, thinking custom meant expensive, but our contractor assured us they would stay within our budget. The next day, we met with Nick from VHI CABINET. To our surprise, custom cabinetry was within our reach, and Nick guided us through the process.
When we arrived at VHI Cabinets we faced an overwhelming array of choices: door front styles, glass inclusion, and trim options. The only certainty we had was choosing white, but, surprisingly, there are hundreds, if not thousands, of shades of white. So much for our sure bet.
After spending many hours examining samples and visiting VHI Cabinets, we made our decisions. The small square, known as (Designer White), was selected for both the upper and lower cabinets. The door behind the square is painted in (Hearthstone), which we chose for the island cabinets to add contrast to the white. The white cabinets shown above represent the cabinet design we picked. We will also include glass doors to showcase my dishes. Lastly, the vent hood above is identical to the one we will have. We are a long way from being done, but I am beyond excited to start!
Our trip to North American Stone was much simpler than I anticipated. We were browsing quartz samples when I stumbled upon one that resembled marble. As soon as I picked it up, I was in love. It was quartz with a honed finish, and the texture was amazing. My husband liked it too, and since they had it available, we wrapped up our visit in under an hour. Boom!
