That is funny!
In our NJ house, when we moved in in 1985 it was already on its way to becoming a vintage Brady Bunch house. There were shag wall-to-wall carpets. Metallic floral wallpaper. Dark brown cabinets and avocado tiled floor. Harvest gold appliances.
The room I designated for the boys' room was covered in a big daisy floral print wallpaper. We tried to remove it, and it was literally like trying to peel a sheet of paper apart into two sheets. We tried steaming, scraping, you name it. I finally papered over it with a textured wallpaper and it remains to this day.
IL, it must have been fun living in a brothel/planetarium!
DH is such a busy guy! He Just finished the marble backsplash in my condo, and then he went to Hermann this week to install kitchen cabinets in our Hermann house.
Here is a picture of progress so far:

You are probably seeing the true color which is called “celery,” a light green. The countertops will be black granite with soft white streaks running through it. The stove will be red
, and I will have red small appliances and the cabinet handles/knobs will be black and red.
The cabinets look great!
Celery (or any light-to-sagey green) and red is one of my favorite color combinations!! And the black countertops will set it off so nicely!Quote:

I think it is so cool you went with color, and absolutely great color.
That's really nice! I'm having a hard time picturing a black countertop, so am looking forward to seeing pics.
That celery and black combination is one I often imagine in my kitchen design pipe dreams. Good choice! :idea:
