Does anyone remember my 6 months of hideousness getting my new kitchen put in? Do you want to see it?

It does look lovely and is nearly worth the month of no heating and no hot water. Nearly....

top one - winter blues or whatever the title is

Beautiful!

I want a new kitchen Grin

Wow, it's lovely! You must be really
pleased with it. I expect all the inconveniences will soon be a dim and distant memory.

That's an awesome kitchen Grin

Pagwatch · 13/12/2013 09:47

I am really happy with it. I'd never had a new kitchen before and it was ridiculously daunting but the kitchen we had was horrible. We all live in the kitchen now Grin

Xmas Envy looks gorgeous and how big is your kitchen!? Grin

Bearandcub · 13/12/2013 10:01

That's stunning. Totally understandable why you're all in there. I don't think I'd want to leave it either. Congratulations.

louloutheshamed · 13/12/2013 10:05

Are those chairs silver mock croc?

Swoon

ExcuseTypos · 13/12/2013 10:09

Pagwatch · 13/12/2013 10:10

Yep Lou - the fabric is crocodillio . I wanted them for the name alone tbh. DH calls them my pimped out chairs.

Just spotted the dogs too. How cute!

Pagwatch · 13/12/2013 10:24

They were not happy being stuck outside for ages. They tried to get some picture of the dogs in the kitchen but my dogs are cute but idiots...

It's gorgeous. I love the lights and the colour.

Fairylea · 13/12/2013 10:28

Wow. I am so jealous! :) that's amazing.

sonlypuppyfat · 13/12/2013 10:28

Can I be very rude and ask how much that put you back? Feel free to ignore if I am being rude.

WowOoo · 13/12/2013 10:30

Love the light fittings, the chairs and the blueness of it. A nice change from the usual kitchen colours.

I'm not sure I'd want my hob in the middle though. My friend has had this recently - is there a reason for it? I didn't want to ask her.

The flooring looks super too. I want a new kitchen!

Lizzylou · 13/12/2013 10:31

Gorgeous kitchen!
Love the colour, the lights and the chairs Smile

LauraShigihara · 13/12/2013 10:37

That is so beautiful. Absolutely stunning. And that blue is gorgeous.

I want a new kitchen

Weelady77 · 13/12/2013 11:04

Wow it's gorgeous and hugeSmile

Pagwatch · 13/12/2013 15:06

I am stupidly happy that you all like it. I'm still not very confident about this stuff but I'm getting better.

WowOoo - I love the hob being in the middle. I was a bit unsure when the kitchen guy suggested it but makes the whole cooking thing much more enjoyable.
Before I would be facing a splash back while I cooked and the children would be sitting behind me shouting homework questions at my back.
Ds2 used to just disappear downstairs or to his room and I wanted him to be more with us - even if doing his own thing (he has autism)
Now he gets his lap top and sits opposite me while I cook.
It's great.

Sonlypuppyfat. I'll pm you if you like. It's stupidly pricy and people are struggling so it feels a bit wanky talking about that stuff iyswim.
It included all new appliances and a dropped ceiling and underfloor heating etc etc so it really mounted up.

It's really beautiful, stunning in fact. I love it.

It must make you feel happy just to walk into it every morning. Def worth a month of no heating!

sonlypuppyfat · 13/12/2013 15:41

Don't worry Pagwatch I was just being nosey!!

SaltyandSweet · 13/12/2013 17:12

WOW! That is all, I love it and "wow" was the word that kept going through my head looking at those photos. Congrats, it must be lovely being in there

Megglevache · 13/12/2013 17:14

Amazing! Wow is all I can say Grin
