The person shopping for these groceries is choosing some very expensive options -= cut up fruit has such a huge markup, as do snack size packages of snacks. You can do a lot better if you’re willing to do that work yourself.
Also is there a puppy laying down next to the bananas?
That’s ridiculous looking. You will die! When I tell you the hands-off owners of a rental my husband manages decided to get “involved” with remodeling this 75+ yr old craftsman house. The window casings are 6" wide, beautifully crafted reclaimed pine along with all original doors of the same wood. They. Want. To. Paint. It. All. White! They want all white cabinets and white with little squiggle grey CAMBRIA countertops (but want to nickle and dime the fixtures at Lowes ) They, well mainly 1 sister of the 3, are sucking the life and character out of this house. But I quote, “I watch a lot of HGTV, I know what I’m doing”. No ma’am, no you don’t. You’re watching a decade old episodes! All white with grey is dated. They are breaking my heart
ETA: It’s 89 years old!
I once had a potential client throw me out of the house when I told her the full-scale master suite remodel was going to take 8-10 weeks to complete because ‘the people on HGTV do it in a weekend’.
Does she know half of that is fake. And plenty of those flippers are getting sued now too.
Good luck with a weekend flip, ma’am! Quality painters take that long.
Well, building code requires you to have outlets on the island. My point is that you should design those outlets into a location that does not make the expensive waterfall edge a complete travesty.
They should be on the side IMO. Why cut into the countertop at all. My friend has almost this exact same set up. She has cabinets and shelving on both sides. There is a piece of cabinet filler, 6" wide that has outlets on both sides of the island (frontwards in this pic) and on the side opposite the sink. They are higher up and not very noticeable but accessible.
““Restored” is the antidote to all of the flipping shows that contribute to rabid consumerism, the McMansionization of historic neighborhoods, and gentrification, which is known to disproportionately impact people of color.”
