When I was very young we rented a house while ours was being built that had a kitchen and dining room that was all knotty pine.  For me it's nostalgic.

This isn't it but it was something like this, wall and cabinet-wise:

But the layout was more like this:  (change the walls to knotty pine).
 The appliances and counter tops were all turquoise.  It was a very modern early 60s rental house!

I remember being about four and helping Mama to polish all those knotty pine walls.  She HATED them, so I do get it, but believe me, we have customers who would pay big bucks to put their hands on some.

Okay, note to self for learning needs:  Learn to make pictures smaller.

[imgfit] is the tag you want

I don't think we'll rip them out. I'm going to do one of two things. I'm either going to stain them darker or lighter for a more modern feel or I'm going to *le gasp* paint them. I want to stain so the knots will still show, but Tibs isn't into it.
