We hung our kitchen cabinets two nights ago, and it has taken me until now to decide if I like them or not. Every time I glance up at them I can’t help but think of the Jetsons and cringe a bit. But now, now I’m starting to get used to it. I’m hoping that once we put up the tile, shelves, and lighting it’ll all come together. If not, we’ll just move. Ha!

A while ago I was sent an email with a quote on the signature…

“Give up the idea of what life should be, and just celebrate what life is.” James Arthur Ray

I am this quote. I’m not sure who James Arthur Ray is, but we must have met, at which time I must have inspired him to write it. This is what comes to mind whenever I get frustrated with the state of the house, or especially when decisions we made four years ago come into play now and they are not exactly what I envisioned (i.e., kitchen).

But anyway, here are some kitchens with two different types of cabinets working nicely together. I’m hoping ours will do the same.

The photo on the right came from my inspiration folder which is a catch-all for house ideas, so unfortunately I have no idea where it came from. The image on the left is from Elle Decor.
