Best Use of Plastic Spoons

Upcycled lighting | Kitchann Style

This 22″ x 16″ chandelier is made from recycled plastic spoons by Studio Verissimo of Portugal.  Artisits Claudio Carduso and Telma Verissimo strive to make people smile with their creations.

From a distance the chandelier looks like it is made from Lucite.  Very luxurious for only $300 from Eekowire.

Place this in your eating area and you will have an instant conversation piece.

I’d like to see an extra long chadelier with more lights inside.

Small Kitchen Idea: Blind Cabinets

Small Kitchen Design Idea | KitchAnn Style

The largest design dilemma in an L-shaped kitchen is “What do you do in the corner?”

A great way to add sleek functionality to your kitchen is by incorporating the Le Mans swivelling shelves in not just a blind cabinet but a Tall Blind Cabinet.

Rows of tall cabinets are very popular right now – espeically with interesting wood grains.  By keeping the tall cabinets on the short side the room actually feels bigger.  Extra tall cabinets in a small space feel a bit too towering.

New Hardware from Amerock

WesterlyAmerock has been producing decorative hardware in a variety of finishes for varying tastes since 1929.  This year they continue to expand their offering with a new collection called Industrial Chic.

The Industrial Chic line of retro-inspired hardware incorporates the aesthetics of urban loft living with commercial kitchen simplicity.

The Rochdale Collection includes knobs and pulls with rivets for a decidedly industrial look.

The Westerly Collection features sleek, modern lines with a more substantial feel. 

Both collections are available in Satin Nickel and the new Graphite finish.  These two collections are an extension of the Kane and Crosley collections introduced last year.

Look for these two new collections in late 2008.
