Flavor Paper

I have expressed my adoration for wallpaper a few times on the blog, and recently found a company who sells some pretty funky patterns over at 2Modern. "Flavor Paper produces unique vintage and contemporary handscreened wallcoverings that will add a burst of flavor to any environment. Located in the Bywater District of New Orleans, their Flavor Lab uses only the highest quality water-based inks and grounds to create premium wallcoverings for retail, home and beyond. Flavor Paper’s distinctive designs and vibrant colors have caught the eye, and palette, of a number of taste aficionados. Rock stars, retailers, nightclubs, restaurants, and savvy homeowners have all added a little spice to their walls with Flavor PaperFlavor Paper." OH YA, I'm marking them in my favourites.

My dream kitchen

This blog chronicles my entire kitchen renovation from start to finish. Greentea Design has provided me with their solid wood kitchen cabinets, and I'm taking care of the rest.

If you'd like to be brought up to date, check out my kitchen remodel blog for an archive of previous posts. I posted recently some before and after photos, and for this final post I'd like to share some photos I took for Greentea, the interview they have added to their website about my renovation, and a video tour of the kitchen.

My kitchen is complete, and I am ecstatic at the result. I can finally say that I have my dream kitchen. It is beyond my expectations, and every time I walk through my front door and see it, I can't help but smile. I am never going to want to sell this house. I can't imagine leaving this kitchen behind. I'd like to take this opportunity to again thank the folks at Greentea Design. They made this dream come true for me, and I am so grateful (and shocked) that they agreed to this partnership. It was alot of fun and hard work (on both our parts) and they were so patient and helpful throughout the whole process. I hope I can get in a trip to Toronto sometime soon so I can finally meet them and see their showroom. So thank you Greentea Design - you guys ROCK and I'm so proud to have a Greentea kitchen.

To start this post off, I wanted to invite you to check out the interview Greentea did with me that is now published on their website. They've divided it into 3 parts - Planning, Demolition and Installation, and the Finished Kitchen. What an honour to have my renovation featured on their main page. Here are some photos they've included in the interview.

I took some photos not too long ago for Greentea that really showcase the cabinetry so I thought I'd share some of them. (For the purpose of getting decent shots of the cabinets, the dining table and chairs were pushed into the living room).

Thomaspaul

I adore bold colours and patterns, and as a result I am always blown away by Thomaspaul's line of home accessories. Lamps, rugs, pillows and more. All in graphic modern patterns and vibrant colours. I just can't get enough. All the products and ALOT more available through 2Modern.

Fun on the Floor

I'd like to introduce you to a useful new carpet site - Fun on the Floor. This fantastic website is filled with lots of product shots and information. After checking it out and their photos on Flickr, I am seriously reconsidering my love for hardwood. Their product shots are just gorgeous, so I have to include a bunch below.

Skram

Skram is a furniture company based in North Carolina that I discovered on 2Modern's site. I was totally smitten with their simple yet modern lines that are very classic and timeless. "Spare but welcoming, the furniture is an exploration of elemental form, of lightness and weight, of balance and asymmetry." Their products come in many wood options that offer a wide range of looks. Beautiful craftsmanship. Go have a look here, or click on my favourite items below to go directly to the product pages.
