Our sink is towards the right side, giving us more counter space on the left. If I had to do it all over again, I would definitely consider an ice machine, too!!!!!! Love the look of the furniture cabinets in the bathroom. We have that, too. Also, LOVE the microwave placement! Perfect height!!! EEEEEK! I know I say this all the time, but this is so dang exciting! If I'm THIS excited, I cannot even IMAGINE how excited you are!!!roxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17262055982133436571noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1709642354094596351.post-8192451301354298802017-05-18T19:17:58.962-04:002017-05-18T19:17:58.962-04:00Think about a disposal in the bar & a built in...Think about a disposal in the bar & a built in trash can for limes, bottle caps, bottles, etc. Also, maybe move the sink to one side or the other.

With the bathroom drawers I've seen people put outlets in drawers so they can leave straighteners/hair dryers plugged in and then they're out of sight after!

We bought our house new so there a few tips/tweaks I wish I could have made. For example-you cant have enough drawers. Make sure you have a drawer somewhere, preferably not near the stove (where mine is,) for kids plates and cups. Its really useful for my 3.5 year old to be able to help "set" the table with his own things.

That is a lot of cabinets and it might add a little visual interest.<br /><br />Some other ideas that might be helpful is having the microwave either in a pantry or in the island and not visible. You may also want to designate a drawer as your 'charging station" and have outlets installed.<br /><br />Love watching the house progress!Lindsey Kennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01148420208180811774noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1709642354094596351.post-37806912704061452882017-05-18T12:09:24.857-04:002017-05-18T12:09:24.857-04:00I love the taller cabinets too!

Our friends just re-designed their hole kitchen b/c the cabinets were short and just made the whole room look off. <br /><br />Love the single glass cabinet over the bar. We added a couple in our kitchen too and I am hoping it looks good! <br /><br />Great steal on the vanity - so simple and pretty!Tracy Lyonshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08998631603349880961noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1709642354094596351.post-78172561872183437392017-05-18T08:13:15.879-04:002017-05-18T08:13:15.879-04:00Love the cabinets that you are leaning towards.

My argument was that the open space was just going to collect dust and I sure as heck couldn't reach it anyway! We did one glass cabinet over our bar and I'll fill you in on a little secret! I went to the Dollar Tree and got the prettiest dark blue wine glasses (they have green too!) They are the thickest wine glasses I've ever seen and look so pretty up in the glass cabinet under the lights!

I'm just thinking it'll b wasted space. I think you should just do tall ones to 9'. That is what ours look like in our kitchen and I really like them. I definitely can't reach the very top shelf very well but we can still use them and if I can't reach something I just grab the step stool!
