One way to make a wood stained kitchen look freshe

One way to make a wood stained kitchen look fresher and more timeless is to install a white countertop and backsplash. And while I prefer a white kitchen, these new natural (cooler or ashy) wood tones can also be a #classicandtimeless choice when there is a beautiful balance of natural wood tones and crisp white. #classickitchendesign

I edited my very first video without any help 😆

I edited my very first video without any help 😆 usually my social media manager does this for me but I am determined to get super fast so I can whip them up myself 🤷🏼‍♀️
Don’t be too hard on me 🙈
The message of this video is still good and that is ‘Show your client which colours work with the finishes you’re selecting. When I was new I spent a lot of time asking my clients whether they ‘liked’ the choices we were making and looking back I realized it was because I wasn’t sure which one was right and I was hoping they would choose so they would be responsible if it wasn’t perfect!
Therefore, If you spend a lot of time asking your client if they ‘like’ what you’re presenting, they might worry that you don’t know which one is the right one 👍🏻
And here’s the good news, the more experience you gain, the bossier you’ll get 🥳
When my clients tell me which look and feel they want their house to have it’s my job to select the finishes—based on their likes and dislikes—that will give them the beautiful result they are looking for!
Your client does not always know where the ‘You are here’ tile or countertop is! That’s your job to lead them to the #classicandtimeless home they’ll love forever! 🙌🏻

My #largecuratedcolourboards mean you only need 50 boards to find the right white or neutral 😏
The ONLY way to get colour right is to compare, compare, compare 🙌🏻
You need to be able to SEE that you’ve chosen the best neutral in the correct undertone before you can have confidence that you’ve chosen the right one!

If you know me, then you will know that I use my large painted colour boards of @mariakillam ALL THE TIME. Normally I mainly specify Benjamin Moore paint, but after today and with the addition of my new @sherwinwilliams large painted boards from Maria's Foundation collection, I'm excited to use more of their whites and neutrals for client projects!

This a my newly styled #bookshelf in my #backyardstudio all set up for #zoomcalls so no one will miss that they’re talking to a designer 🙌🏻😆

My #leopardrug arrived today (link is in my storie

My #leopardrug arrived today (link is in my stories) I chose this style because it goes with so many colours and this will be a space where I’ll be talking about colour and whites which is why the walls are painted #chantillylace because it’s a basic true white to compare other whites to so you can ‘see them’
The black cabinet will be replaced soon and the vignette will change frequently depending on what the discussion is 😄
