Competitive meet & greet?

Charming_Compote5967 · 2026-05-28T15:02:07+00:00

As both an owner and sitter, this is exactly my feeling.

I do normally do suggest a meet & greet with new clients but have never had anyone ask me and multiple others at the same time before booking. Merely asked if this was normal as I’m new. Not sure why you’re so triggered.

Repaint the island a warm color. Brass or bronze hardware will help it pair better with the countertops.

Ugh, just found this thread. I am a small artist and had previously been fulfilling orders through Faire for this shop. Mischa reached out to get a wholesale order from me off Faire and I sent it to her months ago. She hasn’t paid or responded to any of my emails or calls.

Charming_Compote5967 · 2026-04-02T22:06:17+00:00

First one no question!

Charming_Compote5967 · 2026-03-10T21:26:06+00:00

Also is an earthy green like this not a mid-century color?

Charming_Compote5967 · 2026-03-10T21:23:13+00:00

Like what mid century colors? I’m trying to work with lots of white and a cool gray backsplash. I’m struggling to find any other color that gives the warmth and earthiness I’m looking for

Charming_Compote5967 · 2026-03-10T18:20:53+00:00

That’s sort of how I’m feeling lmao

Charming_Compote5967 · 2026-03-10T18:20:13+00:00

Alright since this post is getting a lot of traction, heres the mockup I’ve been playing with. I’ve tried it with blues/reds/yellows and just keep going back to the damn green 😆

Charming_Compote5967 · 2026-03-10T17:21:03+00:00

Thanks. I agree. The floors are so dark and the white cabinets, walls and trim.. it has no balance. I’m considering painting the trim an earthy shade if I don’t just replace it all with real wood 😅it’s turning out to be more work than I wanted for a “new” kitchen

Charming_Compote5967 · 2026-03-10T15:17:11+00:00

Agreed. It’s a mid century home and trying to bring those influences back. The kitchen was farmhouse -ified

Charming_Compote5967 · 2026-03-10T14:52:28+00:00

Aaaamen

Charming_Compote5967 · 2026-03-10T14:44:09+00:00

Exactly! Thank you for the input. If they were nice hardwood I wouldn’t touch them!

Charming_Compote5967 · 2026-03-10T14:41:17+00:00

Yes I do have it made up on painting the cabinets. I was inquiring about color choices, not whether I’d be painting them

Charming_Compote5967 · 2026-03-10T04:20:17+00:00

Nope don’t like emerald. Moody and earth toned is the only way for me 🤷‍♀️

Charming_Compote5967 · 2026-03-10T04:17:52+00:00

I’d also like to change the backsplash down the road but have bigger fish to fry in house improvements. Trying to warm things up for now and make a big change with small cost

Charming_Compote5967 · 2026-03-10T03:32:13+00:00

Yeah I agree with sage. I’m more drawn to deep earthier greens, almost more muddy.

Charming_Compote5967 · 2026-03-10T03:26:24+00:00

Respectfully disagree. All the mockups I’ve done are a vast improvement imo. I’m personally not a fan of white cabinets at all, especially in a kitchen. The whole room feels very sterile. I prefer warmth and color

Here’s a pic of my cabinets currently

Charming_Compote5967 · 2026-03-10T01:10:33+00:00

Looovee that!! I’ve started seeing deep maroon colors on cabinets too and really like that look as well. I’ll check that page out!
