You're listening to Dear Alice, a lifestyle approach to interior design.

Hello! We are going to talk about kitchens today, Sue Hall and Corey Place.

Hey.

Yes.

Yeah, so we've had a lot of really great questions and the kitchen really is the most technical room in the

house. We have appliances are working, we've got plumbing working, we've got lighting

working, we've got all of those cabinets or drawers and poles and it's a lot of permanent choices. A lot of moving parts. Yeah. So we're actually

going to break kitchens up into two episodes. We're going to talk about the more permanent

fixtures this week, so it's all of the stuff that has staying power and then next

week we'll get into things like the little things that you can change out eventually when you

when you recognize the bin pole is no longer a thing that you can just safely

unscrew that little sucker and put something on that's a little bit more timely today.

Yes.

So anyway, let's launch into the more permanent things.

We have a question from at Magahala,

and she says, I want wood floors throughout my house but I also

want some timeless wood kitchen cabinets what's the trick when doing wood flooring

and cabinets do I go with the same color or do I mix it up?

This is a really, really, really good question.

A great question.

Yeah, I actually live with this exact same thing, Magahala. I have wood floors. I have a riffs on

white oak and then I also have no actually on my floors I just have white oak and then on my cabinets I have a riffs on white oak. So two different cuts of wood, same species, but my kitchen cabinets I went way deeper than my floors.
