Last weekend was a little busy for me, I was packing away the contents of my kitchen cupboards and clearing the kitchen in preparation for the fitting of a new one, which started on Monday. It shouldn’t have been too difficult, but there were rather too many interruptions and distractions which made it take far longer than it should have. This included me being left on my own to get on with things on more than one occasion!!!
When left to my own devices I got a bit carried away and stripped the wallpaper off the walls too
Unfortunately I don’t have a picture of the Welsh Dresser to hand, it used to be where the boxes are in the first photo. You will just have to imagine that
ONe tug at wallpaper is never enough is it
I do have a little bit of a thing about pulling wallpaper off the walls. I find it rather therapeutic
cannot wait to see the after photo
I can’t wait to see the after kitchen
You got your self a very got project at hand
A rather stressful one too
I see you had a hectic week but i like the collage of your kitchen… stripping wallpaper can be an adventure… if you pretend that there happens to be a cash of money behind it lol….peter:)
I do have a bit of a thing about stripping wallpaper off, especially when it peels of without ripping
Both of them look great to me.
Both of what look great?
I’m sitting here looking at the old and thinking it sure looks like new to me, Cherry. I can’t imagine it looking any better than this??!!!
I should have taken some close ups, then you could see why it needed replacing. Around the sink area there had been so many leaks due to the plumbing, the inside of the cupboards had collapsed and the working surface and cupboard doors were damaged. The built in fridge freezer and fridge were passed their best and needed replacing which meant taking out those cupboards too.
So that was half the kitchen needed replacing, so therefore over all it was more cost effective to replace it all. It also means I will have the freezer size I need, the previous one was always less than adequate.
