Starting at the beginning
Posted by Jeffrey on Oct 9, 2008
Yes that’s right; I said kitchen renovation. The two words that strike fear into any man. Because there are issues with the kitchen. That’s right issues. In our case its a distinct lack of storage and organization on the surface. But of course it goes deeper than that and maybe over the next 6 months or so, we can start to get into how we address those issues.
But for now we’ve brought in a specialist; an Interior Designer who has done many kitchens. So after our first meeting and a long questionaire that we went over, she is putting together a plan to address our ‘wish list.’ I think that our list is so long we’d have to have a kitchen 10 times the size to fit it all in but I am hopeful she can prioritize what we need versus what we want. Tall order yes, but its still the beginning of the project!

Welcome to the world of kitchen renovators! I think there should be some sort of support group. We have many of the same issues as you, plus several cabinets that are about to drop.
We’ve taken on the design ourselves, which is probably nuts, but we know what we want. We’ve sourced a lot of original 50s aluminium kitchen units which we’re refurbishing and, amazingly, can be had for around $40.. $50 each. A lot of work, but worth it if it comes off. I’m blogging it all here.
Good luck to all of us!
