I still needed a hood for over the stove--I bought a plain one at Home Depot hoping my carpenter could build me a wood cover to slip over it and match the cabinets but I made a mistake--the space was too tight and the upper cabinet doors wouldn't close if we did that.

Ikea Visit (Part 2)
Yay! The kitchen floors are getting stained and polyurethaned this week.
I still needed a hood for over the stove--I bought a plain one at Home Depot hoping my carpenter could build me a wood cover to slip over it and match the cabinets but I made a mistake--the space was too tight and the upper cabinet doors wouldn't close if we did that.
Plan B: buy a hood at Ikea. You can't beat the price--it looks very high end and doesn't cost that much more than the plain one from Home Depot. Of course I can't go to Ikea and only come home with one thing! Here's a few of the other goodies I bought...
1. Luftig Exhaust hood: I love how this hood looks so high end and very architectural, 2. Blanda Matt Salad bowl: a great all purpose wood bowl, 3. Dinera Side plate: my dinner plates are white but I wanted a contrasting color for the salad plates, 4. Girig Serving bowl: the colors are perfect for my new home--blue/green and gray, 5. Ikea 365+ Sugar bowl and creamer: you can't go wrong with white and stainless, 6. Fiddle Leaf Fig plant (not on the website but these stylish trees are only $12.99!) 7. Aina Curtains: very plain but maybe I'll add some trim.
