White Kitchen with Brick Backsplash
Remember when our dream home was under construction and it was difficult to imagine how our white kitchen with brick backsplash was going to turn out?
With high, mirrored cabinets, was it going to look ridiculous? You can bet I had more than a couple sleepless nights worrying that is was.
We have now been happily enjoying our home sweet home in the New Mexico mountains for almost 3 years. The best part?
The kitchen!

White Kitchen with Brick Backsplash
Sexy Nerd built the chandeliers (3 total, including the adjoining living room) with hammered copper to match our hammered copper apron sink.
Our pantry bat is from one of my favorite online shops, Uncommon Goods.
I'm a firm believer that the secret to inviting interior design lies in the details. These silver deer cabinet knobs have made me enjoy our white kitchen all the more.
When we designed our custom home, we made sure to include a spot for Ocho. Remember when Sexy Nerd accidentally broke off one of his legs? Whoops!
I have a growing collection of orchids, all rescued from the clearance section of the grocery store. This fellow moved with us from our old house and blooms for months at a time. Not bad for $0.99.
Our plan has always been to continue the red brick backsplash all the way up the vaulted ceiling. Maybe one day.
The cabinets are not a warm white or a cool white or a white with any sort of tint whatsoever - just a pure, 0000 white.
The wreath over our stove was a $20 clearance find at Home Goods. Score!
Sexy Nerd installed the under cabinet lighting himself and built the wood island. He's so handy. I think I will keep him around.
I'll tire of doing dishes long before I tire of the view outside our kitchen window. That said, dishes are less of a chore with a dishwasher on each side of the apron sink.
Our oven has a secret. It's a Samsung Flex Duo, which can simultaneously bake at two different temperatures thanks to a removable divider. It squeezes dual ovens into a small footprint. We also love, love, love the induction cooktop (not to be confused with an electric cooktop) because it's so easy to clean.
