Just that really!

We’ve ordered ours for September but would love to see yours!

Bumping for you!
Did you visit and order yourself?
I'm struggling to find a fitter at a good price who doesn't want a hefty deposit upfront. I don't want to pay a large deposit beforehand then they keep putting me off or run off i with my money!

Me too! May end up trying to fit ourselves

WeAllLikeVindaloo · 09/08/2021 09:10

@imacuddler Thankyou!!
No we didn’t visit as we just haven’t had the time, it’s a little while away for us. So just been brave (with the colour) and ordered going by a plan our fitter did for us.
Our fitter is someone I’ve known for about 15 years. Hasn’t as of yet asked for a deposit but we have his quote for fitting which seems to be very reasonable. I can understand where you’re coming from though it’s hard to find genuine people these days but they are out there. Probably best to get recommendations.
I hope you find someone soon!

Cornflour is an off-white colour. Cornflowers are blue. flounces off to Pedants' Corner

TeamRick · 11/08/2021 22:37

Mines the petrol blue gloss if that helps at all!

Cornflower Blue is a lovely colour. Good choice.

MissFritton65 · 11/08/2021 23:51

My DIY Cornflower Blue kitchen is arriving next month; I'm having a Cornflower blue island with navy quartz worktop and bespoke navy units around the room with oak worktop. I've also ordered cornflower blue units for my utility room. Very excited however need the rooms to be completed first!

WeAllLikeVindaloo · 12/08/2021 15:43

@MissFritton65 sounds amazing!
We also need to knock through, plaster, electrics etc all before it comes 🙈

@WeAllLikeVindaloo so do we! We don't have a roof on the extension yet plus we go away on holiday for a fortnight next week however our builder is amazing so I'm not concerned!

I'd love to see some pictures of these Cornflower Blue kitchens? I'm about to order one but need a push over the edge! Would it go with brass handles??

ManorPiggy · 07/09/2022 22:35

We have Luca Cornflower blue and love it.

MissFritton65 · 07/09/2022 23:05

Ours is now finished. The island units are cornflower blue and the quartz is navy blue and the other half is oak. The units around the edge are bespoke navy- an exact match to the quartz. The walls have been coloured matched to cornflower blue.

MissFritton65 · 07/09/2022 23:08

This probably shows the colour better!

MissFritton65 · 07/09/2022 23:09

Helps if you add the picture 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

What is that freaky thing on your shelves ? Misses point of thread

MissFritton65 · 07/09/2022 23:54

It's a marble of The Three Muses.......

ApricotYoghurt · 08/09/2022 00:12

I think @TenRedThings might have meant the ancient cat wizard looking over it's shoulder... At least that's what I see!

Grin Since I've managed to unsee the ancient cat wizard, I think it might be ostrich feathers in a vase?
NewBootsAndRanty · 08/09/2022 00:17

P.S. lovely kitchen, @MissFritton65 !

MissFritton65 · 08/09/2022 02:14

😂😂yes it is ostrich feathers in a tall vase!

chanobear · 08/09/2022 09:50

@MissFritton65 Thanks for the pictures, it looks great.

@ManorPiggy what colour knobs/handles did you go for? If you have time to take a pic, I'd love to see the Luca in cornflower blue. We have considered Luca and also Stanbury

MissFritton65 · 08/09/2022 09:57

@chanobear thanks! My kitchen is Luca. I'm working at the moment but I'll take a photo my utility room later which is Cornflower blue Luca.
