My creative space...

I had big plans this week to get the Mario blanket finally finished, but then my husband pulled our entire kitchen out and that kinda got in the way of me sitting on the couch and crocheting all day!
 

This is actually the last square so I really could do the big reveal but I want to crochet an edge on first and see how many of those ends I can get sewn in.  Come back next week maybe?!



I have double crocheted right around the edge in that sky blue colour and am now going to treble around that a few times till it looks about right.

Sewing those ends are going to do my head in!!!
 
 
And in my husband's creative space...
 
the old kitchen cabinets came out and the new ones are going in!  Tis a bit exciting!

A Kitchen Story

So, we decided we'd do a wee kitchen reno and replace our daggy kitchen cupboards with nice crisp white ones, bang down some new kitchen benches and have a nice fresh updated look.
 
Silly silly girl.


Because the kitchen is quite small for such a big house and we really struggle for storage we thought we might try and create some extra bench space and added in those extra cabinets you see there in white.
 

 
Which of course then resulted in needing to consider what do with the floor as we had to pull up some tiles to put that new cabinet in.  Which then meant really that the rest of the tiles have to go too!

 
Lucky Darren is good with tools!

 
In reality we are also now replacing all the acutal cabinets because the current ones are standard sizes so of course no doors fit them properly!

 
Oh, and we are attempting to live and cook 'around' the mess!
 
Anyone want to bring me some takeway?!
