Steve and I ventured to Home Depot while at the Lake last week for Spring break looking for kitchen and bathroom cabinets and this is what I was able to find. Sort of excited about them! I love a challenge!

For the Kitchen, I selected Home Depot's standard "in-stock" white cabinets. A great value at only $2500 for the entire Kitchen!! Definately a difference from my DuraSupreme Custom cabinets in the Main house but a very pretty and extremely reasonable alternative. 

As for the Bathroom, it was a little more challenging because we were dealing with existing spaces and the sizes were odd. But, with a little help from my "handyman" hubby, I was able to configure the spaces. I chose Home Depot's St. Paul Valencia in Black. Lovely cabinets. I havent used black cabinets before especially in a Cottage setting so I am looking forward to pulling it all together!

More to come! Moving on to the bathroom walls & floors next. Need to use up some left over tile from the Main house. YAY! I have a 3x6 white subway tile from the Kitchen that I will be using in the GuestHouse Kitchen and a beautiful pebble tile and 6x6 tumbled travertine from the Master Bath that I will be using in the Master Bath in the GuestHouse only this time with the black cabinets above. Can't wait to see it all together!

By the way, the very FIRST thing I did was to draw floorplans and then layout my furniture. It's a must for a good project. Follow my montly column in SavvyTexas Magazine for a step by step guide to Decorating with a Plan. www.savvytexasmagazine.com/HomeScapes.html
