My kitchen

Yesterday, Darren and his brother Mark, picked up our kitchen cabinets from our cabinet maker in Melton!! Here it is being installed today. I am SOOO excited!! This wall above contains the pantry (on the left), the fridge (in the middle) and a "kids bench" where the toaster etc. will be.

This is the U shaped area under the bulkhead (see link to old post here). These cabinets are a different colour to the other wall, for a bit of interest! The sink goes under the window, stove on the right (I bought a beautiful 90 cm Smeg upright cooker with electric oven and gas cooktop - I got it from Gray's Online auctions for $2000 less than RRP. It has a few small scratches but nothing I care about), dishwasher on the left with lots of drawers everwhere and a huge pull out bin. I've sent off a plan to the bench top people, we want to get Caesarstone in the "Ice Snow" colour. Hopefully that will be organised in a week or so.
Other jobs done lately include starting the handrails upstairs and in the stairwell. We've gone for solid timber posts and rails that we will stain, and black powdercoated steel uprights (not pictured yet).
The wardrobes upstairs in the kids' rooms are also finished. The doors are on the floor just waiting to be painted.
