I fell in love with the Pinstripe cross-handled faucet for the children's bathrooms. They were more than I wanted to spend for bathrooms no one will ever see, but the minute I saw them I knew I wouldn't be happy with anything else. I tried looking for alternatives, but at the end of the day the extra money wasn't worth my happiness, LOL. J refers to this as the "Vy Ho" compromise --I get my way.....or I get my way... I can't help it, though! Finish out details such as fixtures and hardware are like shoes to me - they complete a look and the wrong fixture can ruin the whole outfit. It's funny, I can "get over" bigger compromises such as layout, but I'll seriously fixate and lose sleep over the "right" door pull. Speaking of which, I better start looking at those since I only have four more months to decide....

At the risk of opening a can of worms... what coffee bar mini fridge?
You also need to choose your vent hood...
Oops, gotta add that hood.
The coffee bar in the upstairs hall. I don't know if you remember from the last house, but we're doing the same thing we did there. It's in the floor plans as a double door closet - basically it will be lower/upper cabinets with a small bar sink and mini-fridge. We're just doing job-built cabinets for that.
I should probably more accurately start calling it the sippy-cup and juice-box bar, lol.
whew. I thought you meant butler's pantry.
