Renovating in Tuscany: Building Our DREAM Kitchen in Rome & Antique finds from Provence France

Welcome back to Renovating in Tuscany!
Join us on an exciting journey as we head south of Rome, Italy to witness the realization of our dream kitchen. Months of meticulous design and planning have culminated in this moment, and we are beyond thrilled to finally see it in person. Crafted with exquisite American walnut and adorned with elegant brass fixtures, our kitchen is a perfect blend of 1960s mid century modern design, beauty, and functionality. Giacomo, our talented carpenter, has masterfully brought our vision to life, creating a space that is truly a dream come true.
But that's not all! Prepare to be amazed as we unveil the treasures we discovered during our recent trip to Provence, France. Our wanderings led us to the charming town of Avignon, where a captivating shop instantly caught our attention. Inside, we were greeted by an array of breathtaking antiques that spoke to our hearts. From magnificent chairs to a stunning mirror, a large cyprus candle holder, and an amazing stone-topped coffee table, each piece holds its own unique charm. We are filled with joy and anticipation as we envision these treasures seamlessly blending into our home.
Join us as we celebrate the beauty of craftsmanship and the thrill of collecting timeless objects. Our passion for design and the stories behind each piece ignite our excitement, and we can't wait to share these enchanting moments with you. Get ready to be inspired and captivated by the artistry and charm that surround us on our renovation journey in Tuscany.

OMG!! you hit the nail on the head!🙌 that’s such a huge complement for us 🥰 Thank you! - we were really striving to achieve just that! Design from the 60s has been a big influence for us.

[@benanderson3033]

The idea of getting your kitchen designed and built in Rome is living the dream!! 😍

[@CasaArdor]

It was definitely a pinch me moment! We searched high and low for somebody who could really pull of the design we had in our head and heart. Luckily we found an amazing artisan in Giacomo ☺️

Totally agree that the kitchen is where we spend most of our time. You new kitchen is absolutely fabulous! I can’t wait to see it completed and installed in the villa. Just love your updates. Thank you!! Bev in Colorado

[@CasaArdor]

Thanks so much Bev for tuning in! 💕 It’s been so much fun designing and sourcing all of the details for the kitchen space! I can’t believe we aren’t too far out from having a real kitchen 😝 it’ll be dreamy to cook and bake in our new space (especially for the holidays!)

[@Anayea10]

Keep up the good work! I get stressed just looking at you guys! I don’t know how you do it! It’s a lot of work! Such a pretty place!

[@CasaArdor]

Thank you!! 🤣 Renovating and moving are the 2 hardest things to get through! There’s a lot going on all at once with all the banging and shaking but it’ll be so worth it! And we’re meeting special people along the way 🥰 it’ll be so amazing to see 1 room done 😂

[@benanderson3033]

When do you think the kitchen will be finished? When will it be installed? Can't wait to see it all in place!

[@CasaArdor]

Ah! The million dollar question 😂 I think they are only a few weeks with building all the elements from the kitchen. We HOPE to have everything installed in early September but we’ve had so many delays lately that we wouldn’t be surprised if this gets pushed back a bit… Good news is, construction is picking up and we’ll have lots of progress to share ✨💪💪

[@lindiwemakgalemele6796]

Its so beautiful watching the progress of your dream kitchen! The cabinets are gorgeous. Would you be prepared to share the business name for your carpenter Giacomo?

[@CasaArdor]

Hi there! Thanks so much for your support! Absolutely, we're happy to pass along Giacomo's info. Shoot me an email at at [e-mail] and I'll send you the details.
