Could be! I did see someone looking remarkably like Emeril in a bookstore in L.A. tearing pages from one of Martha's books.

I started with stainless steel and went from there to concrete and then to granite. Now I'm debating cabinet colors. We started with dark wood and then went to light wood but yesterday I saw the new silver and glass and thought - why not.Flipper Fishmanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02609917538402821808noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5799018.post-1086149683246511552004-06-01T21:11:00.000-07:002004-06-01T21:14:43.246-07:00This was not a good day for creating. You know how once in a while you get the feeling that you should be somewhere else, well that was my day. I was in a room that was painted the most hideos color imaginable and all I could do was sit and listen to a speaker to on and on about how great it was to be an American. Fine!

I look around, and I can't muster up the wherewithall to get creative around the condo. The kitchen cabinets need painting/staining, we can't quite decide on the color/stain. the master bath needs painting, same problem.

How in the world can you possibly tell the color effect on a wall with a 2"x3" piece of paper? We must have the largest collection of unused quarts of paint.

Much more space on the desk now, because the cabinet holds all 3 printers and other stuff. Neatly. Love it. Now. Next project. Paint kitchen cabs and bathroom. Currently in the pick-out-the-paint (or blow-my-brains-out) phase. rather get a root canal. Confront, baby, confront!

I finally confronted the cabinet, which was set up outside. Painted inside and out with a coat. Then, when I was ready to quit, saw I hadn't done the doors, which were unattached. So, did them too. Don't you hate painting around hardware? Then it had to dry. Then another coat. Of course, the doors took twice as long because each day I could only paint one side. Geesh.

Good grief. So there it sits.

Needed one to hold printers, in/out baskets, etc. Couldn't find one thru LOTS of shopping, so had one made, and we are now painting it.

Lots of fun, hauling them around, standing in line. The floor is bare again.

I've got 30 days to return it if I don't like it. I like it, hubby doesn't. So, do I ignore him and keep it? Or drag it back to the store? Shopping for rugs is only slightly better than picking out a paint color and painting ceilings.Flipper Fishmanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02609917538402821808noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5799018.post-1063302632335029922003-09-11T10:50:00.000-07:002003-09-11T10:50:32.190-07:00I'm going to buy a camel to haul the rugs back and forth I keep buying and returning!Flipper Fishmanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02609917538402821808noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5799018.post-1063300625584524062003-09-11T10:17:00.000-07:002003-09-11T10:17:05.573-07:00My hit and miss decorating travailsFlipper Fishmanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02609917538402821808noreply@blogger.com
