Just recently got a new kitchen installed...

A lot of work done in the kitchen (solid wall knocked down between kitchen and dining room, walls skimmed, electrics redone)








the radiator (was a brand new white one from screwfix, and we got it professionaly sprayed (like a car part, baked in the oven) The colour is metallic black (technically the same colour as a metallic black vauxhall car (the mrs works in a vauxhall dealership)



Nearly all finished now, just need the skirting boards put round the door, + the another door to be fitted...

You all have really nice kitchens, even the tiny ones, and I'm loving looking at them!!
This is my kitchen.
From one end.......


To the other.....


and in between.........


The double doors on this photograph hide the washing machine and the microwave, the television is sitting on a lazy susan so we can swing it around. Part of my collection of cookery books are sitting in the plate rack behind the TV - I have more books than plates!;)

Wow what wonderful kitchens!
I am in awe.

This is my humble offering! My dear Dad and I put it together ourselves, did all the tiling etc ourselves. Bought the hob and sink in Netto and got the taps for £14 on Ebay! Quite proud really!

I'd just like to thank HariboJunkie for reigniting my interest in Cath Kidston stuff for my kitchen. Since seeing photos of her lovely kitchen I've been looking for bits and bobs to make my kitchen look nicer.

Off to trawl eBay again!

Loving the pictures, I will do mine soon I promise (I am such a technophob at times).

Haribo - you appear to have stolen my cat. Also is that a tub of corks in your kitchen?? Am I missing a major os use for them?? :rotfl:

I do actually make cork boards with them. But haven't for a while and just thought they looked nice... and it's great fun emptying the bottles. :rotfl:You can have the cat back anytime.. she ate the childrens' porridge this morning.

Thanks to everyone for the lovely comments. The kitchen was truly hideous when we bought this house. Orange pine tongue and groove everywhere. :eek: It has been a slow process but all the bits and bobs have been collected over time. The dresser was an old pine argos one which I painted and put the material (from ebay) behind the glass. All the signs have been collected in junk shops here and on holiday. The glass bottles on the dresser are ones my OH dug up when he was a boy and the old mangle was a wedding present. The sofa was 30 quid off ebay. I also collect old tins like oxo ones which are displayed on a shelf unit in the alcove but I thought 4 pics were enough. It pays to hunt around and I never buy anything that's full price. So it wasn't a design job and none of it really matches but I spend most of my life in there so it's important to me to love it.
