Latest In Dream Kitchen Design

In case you’ve been wondering where I’ve gone and what I’ve been doing, well, here it is. My newest passion – home design. More specifically, it’s my own home! Over the last year during the construction, I’ve had to make daily decisions about where and how to prioritize my resources, as well as, what is important to me and my family, and this process has forced me to re-evaluate my life and goals along with it.

For example, I had a seemingly tough decision between getting the Moynat Réjane Clutch or the kitchen backsplash tile that was too expensive for words. Either handmade tiles, made one at a time and hand painted by a local artisan, fired in a kiln in a local studio; or a handmade bag with baby soft hand tanned leather, sewn by artisans whose craft is about to be extinct. In the end my values were apparent and clear and the decision was simple, something long lasting that will enhance a bigger part of my life is in my kitchen and not my arm.

This physical and spiritual remodeling has made me consider, long and hard, about Snob Essentials and whether or not I am being honest and fair to my readers. And rather than take you through the toiling of my mental meandering, I took a break from it all and stopped posting. I wanted to wait until I had that Jerry Maguire moment of clarity. When I started Bag Snob 12 years ago, I did it because I had a bursting passion that needed to be expressed no matter what form it took. I needed that passion back and I didn’t want to post anything that didn’t stand up to that level of conviction. I won’t go as far as saying my passion for bags, and fashion are no longer important to me but it is definitely no longer a central figure in my life. So why would I bore you with tepid reviews about something I feel contrite about?

Everything always went back to family and friends and it invariably revolved around the kitchen. Of course my master bathroom and walk in closet aren’t too shabby either! But we will get to that later. If you’re looking for great architectural designs, I highly suggest that you check out https://www.archute.com/.
