What a well designed kitchen and dining room, the stone wall is stunning 🤩

[@DesignLovesDetail]

I just love it! 😍

[@Liveinpeace2580]

Gorgeous job as usual! Even though you couldn’t get the doors you wanted on the pantry, it turned out nicely and it can be used to display items beautifully ❤️

[@DesignLovesDetail]

I definitely would have liked to get the doors but I’m happy with how it turned out!

[@vivianabalbuena]

As always a hit!!! What I love about your designs so much is your confidence in your selections and your mindfulness when it comes to budget, quality and functionality.

[@mommyandalexia]

The stone is so amazing I love the European flare with neutrals ❤️

[@rneustel388]

The before house is so similar to many houses we looked at here in Kingman, Arizona, and y’all made such amazing changes! The stone wall is genius, too.

[@irmayorke9075]

The kitchen is beautiful and very functional. I love that you did not put upper cabinets by the sink it makes it feel very open. Again such a great job!!

[@DesignLovesDetail]

Thanks Irma!

[@palmersonholiday]

Loved how you kept the space over the window clean with no upper cabinets. The window and the splash back balance each other too. I like to get up in my counters business too - hehe cracked me up 🤣.

I do like having the microwave in the island. It looks good and is easily accessible. I love what you did with the kitchen and dining area! The stonework is beautiful.

[@DesignLovesDetail]

Thanks MaryJane! So glad you like it! 😘

[@bluewhale2600]

Hello by any chance do you love the microwave in the island or is it a headache to bend down to press the buttons or hold your items in there? Do any of them spill because how it moves to close or open? I'm considering to buy one but I'm not sure because of the price and if it works or not.

[@sonyafrederick8684]

I love how this whole project turned out!!!!! Such a beautiful home!!!! The stone wall is my absolute favorite feature and it looks gorgeous in the video but it truly doesn't even do the wall justice! In person it is literally a jaw dropping WOW moment, even through the window from the yard. It is definitely the showstopper! 💗 Your best project yet, Mollie!!!

[@DesignLovesDetail]

So glad you like it! Yeah, in person you can definitely get a better feel for the whole space and hopefully we’ll be able to show it in the full tour coming soon!

Love this kitchen! I also love that there aren’t any uppers! The hardware is gorgeous! I personally never use a microwave so I’d never put one in an island but it’s better than being over the range.

[@kstepk5003]

You right girl. Killed it!

[@ginafriend1690]

Is this not an 80's build? Reasoning, mine was, and I would love taking out walls. They bug! My kitchen cabinets are on one wall as well, in the galley. I have a large breakfast bar with a room attached, which I have my dining table, which is where my fireplace is. Which I certainly don't mind, that part. I absolutely love your decisions for change and decor. I don't like upper cabinets at all, but recently I saw some new builds and loved what they did. Enclosed upper cabinets with glass fronts with lighting. Therefore, showing 1 item in each like a pot/vessel. It was sharp! I think perfect if need to go to ceiling. Hobby Lobby on nice faux artichokes. I have, look great. Perfect wall statement 🙌🙌❤️🙌

[@DesignLovesDetail]

Ah thanks for the tip on the artichokes. Makes sense they would have them there. This one is another early 90’s home 😊

[@kimdoughman5859]

Absolutely stunning!! You never fail to deliver beauty and functionality !🤩cute outfit💛

[@ShellSellars-Smith]

Uppers for sure for re-sale! "no uppers" is missing out on a lots of storage space and with the open pantry limiting storage? (I would have that pantry looking like a scary eyesore in no time!) lol. I showed a home in Milton (local area to me a few Months ago), who had no uppers, and the buyers were like, "where do I put my dishes and cups and all my serving wares?". Even though it was a stunning home the buyers dismissed the listing as they did not have time to remodel and the way they designed the kitchen you could not just add uppers to fix the storage issue. I noticed it took much longer for that house to sell and in this crazy market. So, my experience is that it can be a risk for no uppers when there is limited pantry storage space specially when high percentage of the folks expect them. I wish more folks knew about the resins in Quartz's melting and so glad you educated them on this fact. The resins/plastics in the Quartz is what melts or flashes/clouds (what I see most as a Realtor in re-sale homes) they put hot pots or tea kettles on the counters or use crock pots or air fryers (something) and they then melt the resins making them flash. I think folks should be able to design for themselves and do what they want but, do keep re-sale in mind if you plan on doing that within 5 years. So, if you absolutely love and have to have the "no uppers look", at least leave room for uppers to be added later on (design them in with future cabinet sizes in mind) to be added easily for future buyer or when the trend moves on from this look and you decide you need them in your life again, you can just add a few uppers to jump back into traditional kitchen design mode without having to re-do the entire design. Love the feel of this whole space and the calming colors and materials used. Love this channel and how you always manage to make each room unique and beautiful!

[@betsyfernandez1104]

Another great design! I agree with you, the rock wall looks STUNNING as part of the dinning room. I LOVE how everything looks together!

[@DesignLovesDetail]

So glad you like it! 😘

[@hithere7282]

Everything beautiful love the wall in dining room.

[@elizabethdaniels51]

Everything is stunning! Completely amazing! The only thing I would change are the pendant lights above the island. For some reason, they just look cheap and detract from the absolutely stunning kitchen. Maybe two basket weave pendants or…… not sure? Your design is exactly what I love. Do you ever work in Michigan?

[@valeriegoldberg6912]

Im obessed with the wall!!!

[@randyw4984]

I just realized why your design is at the top of my list. Truly duh, You are working with homes that are not Palatial! So you manage that so well,The high style is still there. Recently I was looking for ceiling statement lighting for my living room. I realized all the lights I had admired were in homes with 15 foot ceilings so it was a no go for my 9 foot ceilings. I am retired, this Villa is 1400 sf and it is my forever home. Thank you for making higher design in a smaller scale . I truly love what you do! BTW that kitchen is the bomb, microwave down under Yay!

[@shari2895]

I agree with the “ no upper cabinets”. We have remodeled 17 kitchens and have tried not to have uppers if possible. Some day I would love to have a wide closet with all shelves. It would basically be for everything kitchen but behind slider doors. Then just countertop/prep areas with drawers. The last house we did, we put the microwave in the pantry cupboard. We just leave the doors open when the microwave is running. It works great and very inexpensive solution. Love your videos!! Thank you for giving such good ideas.

[@kalli971]

BEAUTIFUL!!!!

[@triciamoss9074]

The kitchen is gorgeous! I agree that no upper cabinets is a cleaner look. However, my first thought is that there is no cabinet or shelf next to the fridge for glassware. Something I always notice when I am in other people's kitchens is how the work triangle functions. Proper placement of dishes and utensils makes such a huge difference in creating a functional space that can accommodate multiple users and minimize steps and wasted motion. If someone has to enter the cook's prep space to get a drink, that is a traffic flow issue. Just a fussy little pet peeve of mine.... don't mind me.

[@marilyn6905]

Love the lay-out/ finishes ...especially "no-uppers" & paired light fixtures on sink wall. I also like paired glass doors to side of stove BUT would personally ended them a little higher up for improved counter-top function on both sides of the stove. ( Countertop loses function when cabinet doors must swing onto it. I just would have preferred fully functional countertops at BOTH sides of stove.) Overall asthetic & storage seems quite nice.

[@DesignLovesDetail]

Thanks for the comment! So glad you like most of it!

[@bedinabebe4521]

Beautifully done

[@ericcaseyzimmerman330]

The dining room stone is AMAZING! I would love to have to information about what you used. This design of the kitchen and dining room is so beautiful. You asked about the microwave, and my only concern would be spilling things as bring food out especially liquids. Its easier if the microwave is counter level. I have them taking up valuable counter space too. Maybe next time you can have power added to the pantry and put it in there. Also, that keeps you from being exposed to the microwaves less incase it leaks. I think that's one reason we have a higher risk of breast cancer. Microwaves all on the counter.

How much is your home gonna cost building wise? Sq ft?

[@beautifulonabudget9427]

Love the feeling of the kitchen space - the cabinet color is so pretty. I do think the microwave is too low. I wouldn't want to squat/bend down to heat up food. I could see it working there if it was one of those drawer microwaves. For my next home, I like the idea of the microwave being built into a cabinet above the wall oven.

[@pattygilligan9988]

The kitchen is perfect for a flip house. The goal is to be on a tight budget to make profit. I prefer uppers for my dream kitchen. Do you have the link for the rug? Mollie, the stone wall is amazing. Love the light fixture also in the dining room. You always amaze me with your style. Love it!
