I certainly know what my next kitchen is going to be outfitted in!
Brass brass brass brass brass!
Love it!
It's funny how things come and go, brass on the other hand generally stays, which I love.
Kitchen's are the heart of the home and I just can't wait to have a huge one with elbows on the counters watching as I whip up dinner every night...

Hello Lovely!: Copper

When "done right", copper can be spectacular...

I just adore these touches here and there and would do anything (I say that too much!) for a copper hood. 

Look at me wanting wanting wanting when I have a nice kitchen already!

Ugh, typical American!

This designer got.it.right

I have no idea who's design this is, I was perusing the real estate listings and came across this beaut! 

But go you, whomever you are!

Let's play Design Critic, someone didn't have her coffee!:

Love the details in this beautiful hood and absolutely envy the brass hardware and details through out

Bit of an awkward corner for the hood though?...

Adore this kitchen, check out those lanterns!
Not huge on that wash over the paint...
LOVE that niche cabinet!
Awkward windows above the cabinets? 
Would love to have seen more cabinets with mullions instead?

Image HERE

Utter perfection! Right?
Pissy pants me: could do with out that funky island side and that landing pad for dust above the fridge...
Then again I can guarantee that household doesn't dust their own shiz...

Image HERE

Oh, here I am, chopping lemons in my perfect kitchen...
Awkward windows, would prefer grass woven shades

Image HERE

Love this kitchen but the shape is a bit Zepplin-y for my taste!
Envy the tiled wall, slat ceilings and counters

Again, the dream list, rather have this than a Rolls:

What I take from this and want in my kitchen?
-copper hood
-tiled wall
-dark stained island
-glass pane cabinets
What's that?
Get my head out of the clouds?

FINE.
... I'll settle for these:
