Hello Deliciousness! x

I wanted to  title this post "Holy Sh!tballs"!  .. but then, i'm not crass like that.

Much.

Sometimes.







Actually, I don't like swearing a whole lot, it makes me wince to hear it.
But it lends impact at times, and I enjoy it as a humourous exclamation point.

In other words: it's ok when I do it, but if you do it...


( i'm a really excellent mother, my fave game being do as I say, not as I do )









But seriously, I went to the house last night and they were still at it hammer & tong ( note: no tongs actually witnessed ) until 5.30pm!  Normally I pop in after school and they are just cleaning up, or sometimes already gone.  I got these just as the light was leaving, and cranked the ISO. 

Smoke & mirrors.





I.freaking.LOVE.IT!





Lights!  Pendants!  Splashback!  Cabinetry!

Those blokes had it all goin' ohn, and it's starting to look *amazing*


Eep!

Double-Denim?

I mocked this up in Photoshop last night, using an i-phone pic of the stacked tiles,
a jpg of the cement pendants, and a rather careless blob of grey in place of the stainless
steel under-bench kicker.

Probably could have tried a bit harder there.

Also threw in the exact oven/stovetop ( it's a freestanding all-in-one job ) and a tap
that looks like the tap I bought.





The problem?

Wellllll .. it's hard to tell here .. but is there enough lift?

Friends on facebook suggested black pendants, but I am sooo in love with these. 
I also think the stacked tile suits the great expanse of splashback there.

( 10 minutes later - blogging in real time, folks )




Ok, so added some "stuff" .. perhaps I can break up the splashback by adding a couple of shelves.
Pretty impractical for herbs, but I like the green.

But I do NOT like the brushed steel.  It's very .. disco ... hmm ...  I think  it would be darker
than this??





Finally, above, I *LIKE* this .. BUT .. I think the splashback is DARKER, hence, do I need
the pendants to be darker??  Secondly, these pendants do NOT come in a darker shade,
which means a shop return and buying something else in black.  Which I don't want to do
( because these are soooo beautiful ).

I like the darker kicker....


You'd think i'd actually think about stuff BEFORE building a kitchen, huh?

Suggestions, and stockist advice most appreciated!!
