I recently got a comment from a sweet reader/friend Ann and she asked if we have a set formula for our flips, esp. in the sense of using the same cabinets, flooring, etc. That comment got me thinking about how much fun it is to pick out all the fixtures for each flip. No, we do not have a set formula we use, nor do we use the same fixtures for each home. Sometimes we have to go above and beyond to make a home look good and match what we had in mind, this can be from the fixtures all the way to the concrete below our feet where we have to look into services like Denver mudjacking but in our area. Every flip we do has a different feel and look, so that dictates a lot for our fixtures. For the Slump Block Ranch, we are going for a very traditional and classic feel, which will fit well with the Arcadia area that it is in.
When it comes to picking out the fixtures, we are all over the place. We look at a bunch of different sites, and are always changing our minds over who is our favorite. One site that I stumbled upon recently and fell in love with is Decor Planet, so I thought it would be fun to choose out the majority of fixtures needed in a kitchen all from one place for inspiration!
I love the classic feel that this bridge faucet, and pot filler faucet have. And the only thing I like better in some kitchens than brass is beautiful shiny chrome! And that apron front sink? It’s such a fun twist on the normal apron sink, which those beautifully detailed indentions on the front!
Hoods are something we have SO much fun with in our flips. While we absolutely adore subway tiling hoods, or even covering them up with a custom cabinet, sometimes its nice to just see that stainless steel thing in all its glory! And the lighting- well that has got to be one of my most favorite things to pick out! Pendants over the island, a mini pendant light for above the sink or breakfast nook, I love it all. You can make such a statement with lighting.
We haven’t decided yet on all the fixtures for the Slump Block Ranch kitchen, but we are getting close. We will have to call in some professionals like an Electrician Windsor service, for example, to help with certain light fixtures that we can’t do ourselves or have them on standby at least. I was really hoping to show y’all an update on drywall, but we are still at a stand-still with it. Nothing is wrong, but we are waiting on some things to happen before we can move ahead.
BUTTT we got another flip! Yep- another one! This one is in Tempe, and is moving at lightening speed. As in, we got it a couple weeks ago, and its getting drywalled tomorrow. Nuts! Ill show you what I can of it next week {its been hard to document this one as well since its not super close to us and its going so fast!}
