There are so many things to think about when remodeling your kitchen that its easy to forget about some of the items that sort of merge into the background.
You're never going to forget to spend time thinking about which what counter tops to buy or what tile is going to look great on the way.
However, what about the humble bar stool? Have you even remembered that you need to get a set of stools to sit at the breakfast bar.
I get the feeling that most people treat the bar stool as an after thought.
This feeling arises from the fact that in many houses I visit the stool sitting at the bar often seem a little out of place, like they shouldn't really be there.
Its also often obvious that although the kitchen itself has been recently redecorated, the stools are well past their sell-by date.
My advice to anyone doing up a kitchen is to get you priorities right.
Remember, you are making a huge investment in remodeling this most important of rooms.
The kitchen is where a family meets and eats together and its the room that sees the most action at any party worth going to.
It really is the heart of any genuine family home.
So make sure you take a little time to sit back during the planning process and take into account everything you need to purchase in order for the kitchen to come together the way you want it.
That includes spending a little bit of time thinking about the perfect bar stool to match up to the breakfast bar.
It may not seem like the most exciting prospect at the moment but by the time your decorating is over and you are enjoying lunch with loved ones in the finest stools you could find the effort will have been worthwhile.
