Shabby Chic; Volume III

Hope you don't mind me popping in to ask a question ( I subscribe to this thread, but rarely post atm). Is it a lot cheaper buying ex display kitchens, how much of a saving is there?

Sorry that was two questions!

I guess I will let you know when I find out love. I am hoping its a tad easier as we are quite flexible seeing as the room isnt built yet so the plumbing and electics can go anywhere at this point...depends on how much the extra units are?

that looks nice, clean lined will you get all that configaration or only so many units.

you get the L run of units - everything apart from the two sets of talls

one run of base units is 3 m the other is 3.6 m plus the top boxes and another two not in the piccie - the island has units both sides

just need to see how it would fit into our room - it apparently can be split!

Hope the photo uploads have worked, I posted a few months back for advice for painting a dressing table, and the below is the finished article! I used Homebase Sanctuary eggshell paint in chalk white, glass knobs from john lewis and some monsoon wallpaper for the tops and to line the drawers. Just need to re-upholster the stool and I'm done!

I ordered this, but gave it back to them at the counter as the colours were too strong for me, much more vivid than the pic, and the fabric was not that fine, although I might have got a duff one. Shame.
