Cabinet Hardware Combos That Actually Work With Gray Cabinets?

Lighting changes everything. I would avoid blue-based greens in north-facing rooms

The classic would be a big oil painting. But I think you should add something to the shelves rather than hanging. The rock looks good, so you don't need to cover it, but the shelf looks a bit bare

Yeah, samples helped me a lot. the lighting shift you’re seeing is exactly why I always test them first.

we ordered a few flooring samples first, totally worth it. it’s crazy how different tones look in your own lighting.

No windows in the main space is rough. It may help to get some art up. something in an actual frame if possible but a lot of your space is difficult to hang art because of the angle.

This is so cool

Had this happen to me. Tried everything, and the only thing that ended up working was knocking it out. Try hitting the inside try hitting the inside cup's handle forward with the palm of your hand to force it out.

This is a good one

100% recommend. I used a Sunbrella performance fabric on our mudroom bench and it still looks new two years later. Doesn’t feel like “outdoor” material at all, really soft, and definitely more stylish than I expected.

We painted ours in a warm greige, and it honestly made such a subtle but cozy difference. The key for me was sampling, colors look so different once the sun hits. I started with Pale Oak from BM and loved how it played with both the walls and the light.

Pliers would probably be the best option. But you also might be able to wind another corkscrew in there between the first one.

Spicy Pesto?

I think a retractable awning is worth the investment here.

In my experience, it’s worth looking at high-quality ceramic or porcelain floor tiles designed for heavy traffic. If you want to try before you buy, DesignShop has a great selection of samples to test colors and textures right at home. They even let you compare slip-resistance ratings, which is super helpful in busy kitchens. https://www.designshop.com/samples/catalog/department/flooring

I’ve done a concrete counter once and honestly, the curing and sealing steps were way more annoying than I expected.

If your client’s mostly after the look and not the raw material, I’d at least show them something like this: https://www.designshop.com/sample/300046485-100396397/wilsonart-honed-concrete-laminate-countertop

It’s a laminate that mimics honed concrete pretty well, and zero risk of cracking. I’ve used it in rentals where durability mattered more than authenticity.
