im getting close to finalizing my kitchen design as part of a whole gut reno. can you give it a look over??

[cheriehumphrey]

Liz, what would you suggest about the inserts for drawers for utensils, spices, etc.? Would you suggest after market (buy them myself) or the custom cabinet maker put something in??
AND…I suppose I can ask my designer how much they cost if she has custom drawer inserts planned??

For a bit of comic relief watch the old black & white movie Mr Blandings Builds His Dream House starring Cary Grant & Myrna Loy! Great laugh out loud funny movie about going through a build project with a lot of truth.

The "full time job" statement is no joke. I had a close friend almost get a DIVORCE because of the stress of them having their first house built.
