Your ideal kitchen include? And i mean win the lottery money no object.
Mine would be french farm house chabby chic with retro style gadgets, and pull out larder shelves nice table and chairs underfloor heating. Dishwasher a rated appliances nice cooker and plenty of pots n pans!
We still have the original walk in pantry in our kitchen complete with a marble slab shelf and we have lots of old pine and a fireplace .
I just need a butler sink and someone to do the buttling :)
Like the sound of your kitchen Shaney - sounds warm and cosy. I will always love old pine, complete with marks (which don't worry me). They just add to it in my opinion. My father in law made our kitchen table with love from old pine back in the 50's and the cup marks, scratches, etc., just make it feel like part of the family. It's a poor man's wood, used for servant's furniture - good and honest!!
