Hello Arni,
I smiled when I saw this.
I used to love to see pictures hanging on the wall, but since recently (maybe being in my small living space), I see no purpose.
There's a picture hanging on the wall of my tiny kitchen, yet there's nowhere to hold a paper towel (something that needs to be fixed, to prevent it from falling off when the boat rocks). I've used a fine belt to attach the paper towel around the frame, temporarily.
I love the look of that organized, clutter-free kitchen. My mind is at ease instantly, and I can see myself wanting to spend an hour or two, binge prepping, and cooking, while meditating at the same time.
I would kill to have all those spices; I've always like the alphabetical order of my spices, to lesser frustration when I need to grab one quickly.
I love what you've both done with the frosted glass. It's easier on the mind. I mean you'll have to open it anyway, right? So why make it transparent?
You are absolutely right; There's no one size fits all!
Very nice post:)
Hi Camille, to the many afternoon coffees that flowed into wine evenings we spent here. 😊 Such great memories in this open kitchen! You used to have a huge spice rack. Are you limiting your spices in the boat? Oh yes, the alphabetical order of the spices saves time and frustration haha. Less stress and easy to see which one needs refilling.
Our present overhead cabinet is transparent. I'm tempted to apply frosted glass stickers on them but Yohann wants me to drop the idea until we have a clue what the rest of the year is going to be like for us.
Yes, I have so many fond memories of that kitchen 😍
We only have a small stock of spices because of limited space, and also due to us visiting smaller supermarkets chains close to the towpath and canals.
I think Yohann is right. Leave all renovations for now, as you don't know what decisions you might have to make, or what opportunities might present themselves.
I haven't seen your current kitchen, but I believe it's light and airy enough?
I hope the weather is still mild, as those dry hot months will be coming up soon:)
Ah I see. It's a bit darker than the previous one and really cramped. We had to be extremely intentional on the items we keep plus it came with existing utensils that we chose not to use that take up space. I'll try to take a picture of it and send them to you when there's daylight. Or maybe share it here in the comment section when I'm feeling bold enough haha.
Yes, it would be nice to see it. I remember it being darker from what I remember of Kate and Paulo's flat.
Haha, a picture would be good;)
I will take a picture of it tomorrow and share it with you 😀
When our present kitchen and dining are tidied up, 😊 here is the photo as promised. As much as I'd like to have the fridge and beverage corner together it's not possible but the right side is a breakfast station. Cook and prep area at the center and the left side cabinet serves as a pantry. Hive blogging is happening there on that dining table with a cup of coffee. 😁
