Re: What to do about the kitchen?
What Meg says is what we did Ruebeninstead of buying all new - It's amazing what a difference changing the worktops, flooring, tiling and putting in some new appliances makes. It may be that you couldn't get better units by buying new ones anyway. Our kitchen was quite old, but the doors are solid limed oak, which is old fashioned now, but I still like it so we decided to just gave everything a facelift. Granite worksops are special and often look good with older stuff. Upgrading the lighting can also work wonders.Re: What to do about the kitchen?
Thank you all for your helpful advice. I really have been floundering about for ages. My hubby has been suggesting stripping the walls skimming and doing a repaint job. This has pushed me to a make your mind up time decision about a new kitchen or get on with his suggestion as it would be silly to do the walls then talk about gutting the kitchen afterwards. It's a now or never situation and I don't want to make a decision that I may regret. I am not normally so indecisive but there are some good things about my kitchen that couldn't be replaced if it gets ripped out. I've tried to justify to myself that I need a new kitchen but with your help and opinions I can see it could cause more disruption and cost more money than what it is worth. It's so stupid but the kitchen has served me so well that I am now beginning to feel like I would be kicking out an old friend.Perhaps I should live with it, appreciate it and give it a bit of a make over instead. Thanks for putting me straight.Re: What to do about the kitchen?

Rueben, a kitchen is the most important part of the house to some people so what you need is something that you love.Thread Tools | |
