This weekend we paid a visit to Ikea. We had to pick up a few things and also collected a few things we didn’t really intend to buy as seems to be the way with Ikea.
We were mainly looking for some shelves to go around our cooker. We’re quite pleased with the look of this area after going through all this….
Seriously dusty and surprisingly time-consuming. And so we want to make the most of it. On the cheap of course.
We found some inexpensive small shelves of the right size. They were £2.50 each and a bit dull but we bought six took them home and I carefully painted them all Farrow and Ball Cinder Rose.
I’ve suggested pink again and again after cutting out these images from some magazines.
And finally we’re in agreement to go ahead and that it works.
We’ve using them for the ingredients we use the most. It looks a bit like we’re playing shop. We also added a metal bar to hang pots from, so they’re always in easy reach and because they take up so much space.
And we inch forwards a bit more.
That looks completely brilliant. Pleased to see baked beans have made it into the foods we use most section.
yes it’s only fine dining round our way
this looks fabulous.
I have serious kitchen envy. The pink looks great.
Wow, what a difference! I really like the pink touch and I´m so envy of your beautiful Smeg refrigerator.
Answer:
Yes that´s right. I thing they will look much better in white. Hopefully I will be done before the apartment gets the new wallpapers so I don’t get paint all over the walls.
And I love the fact that Carr’s melts are ‘often used’!! They are seriously yummy!
Looking great, not all like playing shop….
Lovely contrast between the pink and wall colour. May I ask which colour that is?
Thanks! They are both colours from Farrow and Ball. The wall is Pigeon and the shelves are Cinder Rose.
