So today I honor my good friend, white marble in all its glory and all the magnificent ways it graces our homes. Used in countless bathrooms, kitchens and throughout other areas of the home, white marble is the ultimate in luxury, beauty and understated elegance. Some of the skeptics say it is not practical....personally I do not agree, in Europe its used everywhere!
I lived with it for almost 8 years in my old kitchen and can say that with the exception of a few things that you have to be aware of (not putting lemon or red wine directly on it) and using common sense as you would with any surface, it proved to be very practical, durable and more than anything so beautiful. Every time I walked into my kitchen, it gave me such an incredible feeling.....I never tired to being in my kitchen and the white marble played a big part in that. Sealing marble is key and it is recommended you do this once a year, which I was pretty vigilant about. So here is the white marble parade......and if this doesn't make you a white marble convert, I would venture to say nothing will... I personally am and a big one at that! Let me know if you have a favorite..........
