It’s lastly time to expose the remarkable “after” shots of my new kitchen area with cupboards from AyA kitchens! So exciting. From being frustrated with my previous kitchen area to planning for a new one, it’s a fantastic feeling to have the job completed. (This blog is sponsored by AyA. comply with my kitchen area reno development here.)
Ta-da! The result is a contemporary bistro-style kitchen. In location of the usual kitchen area table, we went with a long counter-height table outfitted in the exact same marble utilized somewhere else for ample workspace.
Here’s the handy new bar sink in the corner, with a ledge above constructed out of salvaged timber. To go from those yellow walls as well as mismatched cabinetry to this is rather dramatic.
I like the new cookbook shelves AyA put in, total with drawers underneath.
Here’s the new sink — it’s so fantastic to not have it squished next to whatever else in the kitchen. The dishwasher is put next to it for convenience.
I truly like the magnetic chalkboard wall we painted. It’s a adorable method to showcase kids’ artwork.
I now likewise have double ovens as well as a garbage pull-out to the left of it — like them both.
Under-cabinet illumination as well as glass doors are two features that truly make the area brighter. The general modification was rather substantial, as well as I’m happy with the style as well as workspace created.
Going with any type of renovation is a discovering process! Here’s my advice:
It’s worth sitting down with all those included in the kitchen area reno to ensure everybody is conscious of what is happening first, second, third, etc. For instance, if you’re installing new floors, needing new electrical lines or water lines, ensure each of these steps are happening at the right time, as well as that everybody understands what will be needed of them.
By working carefully with the AyA team, you’ll ensure your needs as well as wants are addressed, as well as will have a clearer concept of what to expect, as well as the process will run smoothly.
