Days 4 & 5: leaving the cupboard skirting/ kickboards off until after the floors go in. The paint on cupboards is the first cost. A kitchen painter is coming to do the final coats the first week in June. The framed chicken wire section is, unfortunately, not photographing very well - it’s quite lovely in person! It’s where I’ll hang a lot of different vintage utensils (that I still use!) . . . . . . . . #kitchenrenovationengland #lifeinthemidlands #ukkitchen #kitchenfromscratch #akitchenfromscratch #bespokekitchens #custommadekitchen #integratedappliances #kitchengoals #dreamkitchen #dreampantry #pantrygoals #pantrydesign #kitchendesign #katherineskitchen #bespokekitchen https://www.instagram.com/p/Bx26kG8gCCc/?igshid=1q9jk4jfs6thi

What a difference a week makes! Can’t wait to get it completely finished! Smeg range hood in position, just waiting for my teal blue beauty to arrive from France! . . . . . . #kitchenrenovationengland #lifeinthemidlands #ukkitchen #kitchenfromscratch #akitchenfromscratch #bespokekitchens #custommadekitchen #kitchengoals #dreamkitchen #dreampantry #pantrygoals #pantrydesign #kitchendesign #katherineskitchen #bespokekitchen #Smegcookerhood #cantwaittostartcooking https://www.instagram.com/p/Bx0E9BMACHq/?igshid=xdmeuh06g5nz

Day 3: handles and knobs going on, island lights installed, fridge and freezer units taking shape. We have quite low ceilings in this historic home, so I did some reading on how to make the ceilings appear higher. One suggestion was to have the tall units and pantry shelving right to the ceiling, and it really has made a difference. . . . . . . . . #kitchenrenovationengland #lifeinthemidlands #ukkitchen #kitchenfromscratch #akitchenfromscratch #bespokekitchens #custommadekitchen #integratedappliances #kitchengoals #dreamkitchen #dreampantry #pantrygoals #pantrydesign #kitchendesign #katherineskitchen #bespokekitchen https://www.instagram.com/p/BxzRjpYgNXK/?igshid=1rvzwihxcmm4q

Day 2: pantry shelving, sinks, fridge and freezer cabinets. I’m loving the new @villeroyboch sinks - we’re installing a double in the kitchen and a large single beside the dishwasher in the pantry. . . . . . . #kitchenrenovationengland #lifeinthemidlands #ukkitchen #kitchenfromscratch #akitchenfromscratch #outwiththeold #kitchengoals #dreamkitchen #dreampantry #pantrygoals #pantrydesign #kitchendesign #katherineskitchen #villeroyboch #catsleepingthroughthis https://www.instagram.com/p/BxvaILwgorH/?igshid=1mn7eqw0x0fs4

We are embarking on a total kitchen redo and thought we’d chronicle it from beginning to end. So, welcome, and here goes!! This is the previous kitchen and living room - essentially the space we are working with (with the kitchen wall knocked out) is about 5.5 x 12 metres (18’ x 40’) in which we are creating a galley pantry (where our old kitchen was, as shown in the photographs) and an open plan kitchen-living room. The house itself is a “property of historical significance” in England, but thankfully not a listed building 👍🏼👍🏼 #kitchenrenovationengland #ukkitchen #kitchenfromscratch #akitchenfromscratch #outwiththeold #lacancheuk #fourneauxdefrance https://www.instagram.com/p/BxptAiJhmlV/?igshid=jl6w47bsofdh
