Cupboardy

If you're a watcher of Little Britain, you'll understand the title of this post. If not, it's a long story.

Here is the before picture of (one side) of our kitchen. It's okay ... it's functional ... plenty of bench space ... just not a lot of storage space.

I've showed the kitchen before, you've seen me painting it, and putting up the timber blinds. Now you can see the hole in the ceiling where we've taken out the extractor fan in readiness for the ducting for the range hood.

But enough of before ...

Here is the after picture! Got cupboards!

Only a few more bits and pieces to do. We just need to repair the ceiling where the hole was, and fit the little hidey-box around the flue for the range hood, and we're all done. The last thing for me to do will be fill the cupboards with stuff!

Super fun! The kitchen is all cupboardy!

Those glass-fronted cupboards look so classy. Very nice, clean looking kitchen.

I am sure you are so thrilled with your new look and won't those cabinets come in handy? Terrific job on placing 2nd, though I thought it should get a 1st, but hey...a ribbon is a ribbon after all-so glad you had such a super day.

your kitchen cupboards are just great Tazzie. We had our kitchen re-done about 5 years ago and it was so exciting being able to fill the cupboards.

Hey kiddo - I love the cabinets. Those glass doors are beautiful. I had glass doors in a kitchen once. It forces you to keep the cabinets neat.

Lovely cupboards. It is such a luxury to have lots of cupboard space. Your kitchen looks so light and airy with the white cupboards and glass doors. May it always be as tidy as it is now! (Easier said than done, I know, even with all that space.)

The new cupboards are very pretty. Looks much better!! Very cupboardy. We occasionally get Little Britian in Canada -- quite a fun show to watch.

Great new storage space with those cupboards! My DH is in charge of getting me a new Ikea kitchen while I am in the US! Hopefully it will be all done by the time I arrive to Austria!

Cheers!

Ohh, very nice! I love all the glass and arched stuff you have going there, and the wall color is excellent too. :)

But... I do think you need some little quilted cushions on your two stools at your bar there! *girns*

Susan said...

That looks fabulous! I can't believe the difference in the feeling of warm kitchen now.

Jenni said...
