Today is the 6th Anniversary of our store burning down. We had only bought it two months before. While it may seem that we should celebrate the beginning of our lives as small business owners, instead, we celebrate the fire. Weird. We know. But this fire took our paychecks and burned them for about two years. We feel like celebrating this is celebrating how darn AMAZING we are. We’ve stuck together as a family and we’ve relied on our loyal business relationships to carry us through. This celebrates YOU for supporting us. For sticking with us. For telling your friends. Let’s continue to beautify and build better together.
As we look back, one of the most hilarious memories to us is that we honestly thought we could clean everything up and be open in two days. We really thought we could sweep and scrub and get it into shape. Clearly delusional shock. The building is gone and the location is now up for sale.
You’ll just have to come and visit us in our beautiful new showroom. It’s about THREE times as big and way quieter and cleaner since we have our professional cleaning staff (our two kids) dusting and wiping all of the time.
Hope to see you really soon!!

You know you’ve had this thought: “My house was built when everyone else’s house was built. My house is NORMAL. My kitchen has to be normal, too (even though I would love something a little more magazine quality)”. Well, do we have some photos for you!!
This was a very normal kitchen before. We’ve all lived with a kitchen like this at one point or another. This was a perfectly good kitchen before. Clean. Functional. A fine kitchen.
But…DRUMROLLLLLL PLEEEEAAAASSSEEEE…
Seriously, those with a kitchen like this ARE sexier. They just BECOME sexier because this is ONE HOT number. They can’t help but walk with a little swagger. And who wants to be NORMAL anyway?! Breakfast is WAY more interesting and bright with the island bar. It’s easy to clean and forces the reduction of clutter. PERFECT!
This kitchen was designed with the help of Haim and Deganit at http://www.europeankitchendesign.com in San Francisco. But this kitchen lives in Santa Cruz County where we’re not afraid to take chances! We sell the sink and faucets.
