Learning what we like
On Saturday we played at Home Depot and two furniture stores - we were trying to get a feel for what "our" style is. It's been difficult to tell up to this point since the majority of our furniture has been hand-me downs -- I guess that means our style has been "free".
Since we will not have an island in our kitchen -- we really wanted one, but the developer didn't sound like he would throw it in as a freebie and there isn't a lot of room for one either in our version of the townhouse -- we liked the idea of a raised kitchen table. The table is island-height. It seems that this is a popular thing, since we saw lots of choices. This will probably be one of the first things we buy.
Tomorrow I am going with the developer to pick out our granite colors. Gotta say, I'm a little nervous that Adam has entrusted me with this decision (Actually, I'm only the one going because I can get out of work in the middle of the day), because he has much stronger opinions about color that I do. Cross your fingers that I pick something he likes!
