My new kitchen - nearly finished - more pics updated

Well to keep myself busy and keep my mind off a few things this has been my project as of late

The window in the bottom right of the house is the room in question

Inside view

New door and window installed

Now take the empty room with chimney stack removed aswell

Start building lol

Then tile and all the other bits and its nearly finished looking like this

Awesome, love a bit of DIY me.

You should sink that dartboard into the wall, it would look much better flush

Edit: oh, thats where the oven went...

Not totally to my style, but it's undoubtedly a nice kitchen. Fair play for doing all the work yourself, I'd be too incompetent

Jimmeh · 18 Oct 2007 at 13:57

I like the gas range, always wanted one like that.

Awesome work mate.

Seen it in the flesh, looks sexual and to be honest looks much better in RL.

I might be blind, but where is your sink in the kitchen?

Glaucus · 18 Oct 2007 at 17:22

Good job, double electric oven and gas stove. Can't beat that combo. Nothing worse than a single oven, when your entertaining friends.

Also likethe black and white tiles, just hope you go for a dark/black floor.

Gaijin · 18 Oct 2007 at 17:22

Well, looked a lot tidier when I came round

And i'm not exactly polite company!

I'm still at work. Call you in a bit
