Kitchen Confidential - 6


The before: There is nothing wrong with this kitchen besides the fact that it is bog standard (not always a bad thing) and plain boring (in my opinion only). Also it is showing the wear and tear of the past 10 odd years since this development was built and is identical to every other kitchen in every apartment here.

This picture was taken the day after we moved in - subsequently we covered every surface and cupboard with our stuff, added in a same-as-cupbaord-doors-boring-brown sideboard (to hold yet more 'stuff') and then added all the plastic of the world that our child seems to need (bottles, sterilisers, plates, spoons and every kind of water cup made in the universe). With all our combined stuff and years of service this kitchen was groaning and creeking. For some tlc and a serious diet induced by having to sort things out and chuck chuck chuck before the Big Renovation.

  2. Only this nice in this picture because it had just had a good old clean before we moved in. Also none of our clutter. By the time it was ripped out it was a disaster zone!!!

  3. I am so glad this is the "before" picture. I feared it was the "after"! Nice enough, but bland. Can't wait to see the "after" now :-)
