Our new kitchen


Sorry for the lack of posts on my blog. My house is in a transition phase at the moment as we are poised for the whole inside of the house to be ripped out and re-done. 


That means no buying of anything until we look at what we have and what will and won't stay - I anticipate that I will be getting rid of a lot of stuff though so watch this space as I may well do a little open house sale at some stage later in the year.


Anyway, we have chosen the kitchen. I wanted a wooden one as if we get bored with the colour, I wanted to be able to change it. We would love to get a bespoke kitchen, but the reality is that we don't have that kind of money floating about so we have opted for the next best thing - painted wooden door fronts and wooden worktop from Howdens. It's called Haworth White. Even the layout (without the island) in the photos is similar. I also love the blue walls and the white tiles by the cooker.


You have to imagine this with slate floors. :-)

What do you think? I posted the plans on an earlier post here.

This is the result of creativity and practicality. You made good use of the wood materials, and the end result has a very relaxing effect on the eyes. That will actually look even better if you try to put up some colorful touches on the wooden background. It is fun to cook and prepare tasty dishes in a kitchen that’s relaxing, and it would even feel better to eat and spend time with your loved ones in such a comforting place.

Such a stunning kitchen. I definitely have kitchen envy! :-)
The colours are beautiful and I'm sure you're going to spend many happy years cooking and baking there.
I absolutely love the spotty utensils jug by the sink.

Do you have the latest photos of your remodeled kitchen, Sian? I would love to feast my eyes on your renovated kitchen. Just reading your plan makes me curious on how it turned out. I hope you went for the blue walls and the white tiles!
