I'm freaking on designer Sarah Richardson's latest redo on HGTV, Sarah's House. She's gutting and designing a farm house, giving traditional country decor a shot of modern cool. I'm loving, loving it, especially the kitchen. She gutted the room and redid it for $55,000. I think some of the bigger-ticket items included windows, plumbing and the stone countertops and back splashes. She cut corners using pre-fabricated cabinets from Sears (she painted some of them bright yellow to further the custom feel), a few inexpensive vintage elements and big-box store stainless appliances. One of my favorite details are the polka-dot, oil cloth-upholstered bar stools. Never thought of oil cloth as good for upholstery, but it makes a lot of sense with greasy-pawed kids around. Mostly I'm responding to the bright, airy look, the insane amounts of counter space and the luxurious yet casual vibe. Ahhhh, maybe someday...
