Kiss the Cook - Kitchens that Rock
I LOVE this touch-on kitchen faucet by Delta. It's named “Essa”. You can actually touch it on or off with your elbow, hand, arm, face (haha) - you name it! I don't understand why all faucets aren't this way. And for right around $300, so basically $100 more than the standard faucets. No brainer
Single Handle Pull-Down Kitchen Faucet with Touch 2 O ® Technology in ...
I spent a LOT of time researching larger double ovens with gas ranges before making this purchase. While it's a steep price, it's a drop in the bucket when compared to the higher end brands. And it works great - easy to use and has been very dependable. The smaller oven heats up so quickly. There is also the induction oven option. It actually comes with separate doors of a slightly different color in case you want a different look. Highly recommend
Classic 48" Gas Range in Satin Stainless (CGRS-48)
Workstation sinks are the best. They come in a variety of sizes and I went with the 36". You can add different accessories to it - a strainer, a drying rack, a cutting board. I can't vouch for the faucet as I didn't use it (I'm a Delta girl!), but I love my huge sink
KRAUS Standart PRO 33” Drop-In/Undermount Sink
When deciding on a backsplash I wanted something that was a little shiny but not overpowering. This mother of pearl mosaic tile fit the bill perfectly. Everybody that sees it for the first time remarks on how much they love its subtle shine - and they ALL have to touch it!
Art3d Mother of Pearl Mini Square Mosaic Tile
Love my electric kettle. Earl gray tea in the mornings. Heats up super fast and you can choose from two sizes
Bodum 27oz Bistro Gooseneck Electric Kettle
The Hinkley Margeaux collection has been a great choice for me. I used three pendants over the kitchen island and then placed multiple sconces around the living room (it's open to the kitchen) for a seamless flow. To me, they seem to have a touch of ...
Margeaux - Families
My cabinets are dark espresso color and I wanted a more modern look, but not ultra modern. These pulls perfectly fit the bill. There's a pop of gold against the dark brown cabinets and then the clear aspect adds a touch of whimsy

I love these stools so much. They are comfortable, give plenty of back support and swivel! I purchased 3 of them for one of my homes - sadly, I had to rehome them when I moved into a new house because they weren't the right height. I'm glad to know somebody else is enjoying them!
Madison Park Pearce Upholstered 360° Swivel Counter / Bar Stool & Reviews | Wayfair
This has been a great set for me. It's very compact for the countertop and I like to be organized, so this keeps it all in one spot. They're sturdy and dependable. If you like your knives really sharp, you will have to sharpen them regularly. The sharpness they come standard with is about medium
HENCKELS 15-Piece Premium Knife Set with Block
I love a microwave drawer. It lets you have full useage of your countertops, which is always welcome. This one I would say is midgrade for a microwave drawer, but it functions well. I did have an issue with the original one and Zline replaced it. Still would recommend
ZLINE Kitchen and Bath 24 in. 1000-Watt Built-In Microwave Drawer with Auto-Touch Control Panel in Brushed Stainless Steel MWD-1
I deviate from the norm by preferring the side-by-side refrigerator. I always go for counter depth as it generally fits more seamlessly into a kitchen. I do recommend this one - works great and the water filter lasts longer than the typical ones do (even though it is on some timer telling you to replace it).
Frigidaire Gallery 36 in. 22.3 cu. ft. Counter Depth Side-by-Side Refrigerator in Smudge-Proof Stainless Steel, ENERGY STAR GRSC2352AF
I have the older version of this mixer. It's been going for 20 years strong now. I went with the white color because I watched my Mom's avocado green one go out of style, but still last for a good 35 years. Couldn't recommend a mixer more, although the price can be tough to swallow
KitchenAid 7 Quart Bowl-Lift Stand Mixer
Great quiet dishwasher with the 3rd rack. Very simple panel with multiple cleaning and drying options. I rarely have to clean the stainless steel because it's also fingerprint resistant
Whirlpool 24 in. Built-In Tall Tub Dishwasher in Fingerprint Resistant Stainless Steel with Washing 3rd Rack, 41 DBA WDPS7024RZ
This Zline vent hood has been great above the stove. It works well, isn't too loud and is very easy to clean!

A Secondary Bathroom in My Home that I Renovated
Delta Nicoli is one of my favorites to use because it's a transitional look at an affordable price. A little curvy, a little modern
The Home Depot
The Delta Nicoli shower faucet. This collection is great for a secondary bathroom because of its affordability and great looks
Monitor ® 14 Series H 2 Okinetic ® Shower in Champagne Bronze
The Delta Shower and Tub Faucet Combo in the Nicoli style
Monitor ® 14 Series H 2 Okinetic ® Tub and Shower in Champagne Bronze
I love my Delta rain shower head. Make sure you get the 12" one for the best body coverage. you will also need a small arm to attach it to the ceiling so don't forget that. Really recommend
Delta Brushed Gold 12 Inch Round Rain Shower
This is such a nice vanity light. I ordered the four light version to go over a 60" vanity. It's smaller than what it appears to be in the photos, so make sure you measure your space to get the dimensions right.
Orren Ellis Kaylianie 4-Light Dimmable Vanity Light & Reviews | Wayfair
Great large sized mirror over a 60" vanity. The gold frame around it isn't too bright. Just the perfect touch.

Living
I purchased this modular sofa with two chaise ends - I love that no matter where I live this sofa will work. I can add or subtract the pieces as I want to and reconfigure the layout of it. It does take some effort to assemble it initially - but I did it by myself with no help. Great option!
Nomad Sofa
If you want a vibey inexpensive coffee table, this is the one to get. It's low profile and has the extra shelf at the bottom for additional storage. Smaller in size, so make sure you measure!
Ebern Designs Ami Coffee Table | Wayfair
I'm actually in love with this table, and from the reviews so is everybody else. It's super sturdy and easy to put together. It is simple yet makes a statement. Definitely recommend!
Joss & Main Lopez 75" Solid Wood Dining Table & Reviews | Wayfair
These chairs are the best. They are actually pretty comfy and bring a sleek look to my space. Would definitely recommend
Orren Ellis Lade Stackable Dining Chair Transparent Acrylic Commercial Banquet Modern Side Chair & Reviews | Wayfair
I put this light fixture in a foyer and it really set the right tone for the rest of the house. It's also fairly large for the price and can fit into other spaces with ease. I could see this in a dining room, smaller living room and a smaller bedroom

In the Bedroom
My son loves to have a ceiling fan in his room. This one perfectly fits the bill because: 1. It's LED 2. It's dimmable 3. It's affordable 4. It's attractive 5. There's a remote control for it. All of these reasons with such a reasonable price makes it a great choice
Wade Logan® 52" 3 - Blade Smart Propeller Ceiling Fan with Dimmable LED Light and Remote Control & Reviews | Wayfair
I put this light fixture in a primary bedroom. For the price, it's larger than most fixtures and casts a cool image on the ceiling. Very MCM-ish!
Wade Logan® Lachance 4 - Light 27" Semi Flush Mount & Reviews | Wayfair
I used this fan in a house that I renovated. It's a beautiful fan which is dimmable and has LED lights. It comes with a remote control so you can control it from anywhere

The Primary Bathroom in One of the Homes I Have Renovated
Vanity light selection for a black and gold bathroom. I used two of these over the double vanity sinks
Joss & Main Nikki 2-Light Dimmable Vanity light & Reviews | Wayfair
I can't overemphasize how much a rain shower head on the ceiling of the shower really makes your bathroom feel more luxurious. I always go for the 12" size so it's a true rain experience. You'll need an arm as well to attach it to the ceiling
Delta Matte Black 12 Inch Round Rain Shower Head
This is a great mirror which is affordable and comes with a variety of frame colors to choose from. I went with black to complement the other black features in my bathroom
17 Stories Kengston Modern & Contemporary Rectangular Bathroom Vanity Mirrors & Reviews | Wayfair
For this bathroom, I went with the Delta Saylor faucets. There are a few different styles in this collection and several color finishes as well. I chose black to fit with my black and gold theme. These are a bit higher quality than the baseline Delta products, but not quite to the Brizo level. Love them!
Delta 3535-BLMPU-DST
I went ahead and got the handheld wand to complete the set. You'll have to buy the supply elbow for the wall. Great wand for a quick rinse off.
Delta 55085-BL
If you go with all three (shower, handheld wand and rain shower head), you will need this six function diverter head. You can combine more than one of the shower pieces with this.
Delta T11935-SS Saylor Six Function Diverter Valve Trim ...
This AKDY floor mount tub filler faucet is less expensive than the Delta match and mine sits behind the tub along the wall, so I opted for it. Works and looks great!
AKDY 1-Handle Freestanding Floor Mount Tub Faucet Bathtub Filler with Hand Shower in Matte Black TF0042
The coordinating shower faucet to finish out the Delta Saylor collection. My shower is complete!
Delta T17235-BL
I did accessorize the bathroom with the Delta Saylor collection. Here's the towel bar
Delta 73524-BL
Coordinating Toilet Paper Holder
Delta 73550-BL
I decided on a slightly different hand towel holder. It's a more modern look than the ring. I like it!
Delta 73508-BL
The robe hook
Delta 73535-BL
For tile, I selected a 24"x24" tile at Floor & Decor. I ran them as a diamond pattern on the floor for a little bit of a different look
De Rossi Ivory Porcelain Tile
I put this tile in my shower along with some penny accent tile. I like how it came out - the color goes along with the new creamier trend while still coordinating with the whiter floor tile
Botticino Honed Marble Tile
For this bathroom, I had enough space to make the tub oversized at 67". It's really great to have such a large tub for soaking! And with this tub you can choose the color finish for the drain and overflow
WOODBRIDGE Evelyn 67 in. Acrylic FlatBottom Double Ended Bathtub with Matte Black Overflow and Drain Included in White HBT5584
The Great Outdoors
I love these lanterns. I like an oversized look on a house and these are chunky! Reasonably priced and would good on anything from a traditional style house to a more modern one
