Kitchen

I had beer goggles when I first came to this house- it was PERFECT, I just couldn't see any flaws whatsoever, and in many ways this house is a dream house, but the more I spend time in the house I come up with
little things I want to do to improve it.
Here is an example. We are going to repaint our kitchen. It is currently Linen White I think it is just a little too yellow/creamy with the whitenss of the marble. It actually looks good in this picture, but if you saw it in person you would know what I mean.
Look at this pic above: There is just a little something missing here...Maybe it is the akward blank wall over the stovetop, or is it the weird little blue lights? I have already ordered a large pendant light (hope it works!) and have been brainstorming little changes we could implement over time to make this kitchen even better than it is (and I do love it). Darken the floors, add a blacksplash, add some sort of hood over the stovetop, get some cool and colorful window coverings and play up the window seat.

This green kitchen motivates me to be more experimental with color in our new home.
