Kitchen Cabinets Wishlist


When we first designed our kitchen, we had a look and compared with so many places like Ikea, the internet and other kitchen solutions.  We compared the designs, the quality and of course the price.  In the end we settled for Kitchen Palace (http://www.kpinterior.com/v1/).

In our minds, we had already set for a white open kitchen with simple lines.  Meaning that we didn't want our cabinets to have all the frills, just straight lines.  We didn't want a traditional nor a modern kitchen.  We wanted something in between.  We didn't have much space to play with in our kitchen.  If we fitted in too many cabinets, our kitchen would look small and we would not have like the open space that we wanted.

We designed the kitchen in mind that we will entertain friends our friends there.  Being Malaysian, all our gatherings involves food.  And honestly, we designed our kitchen based on one of Ikea's design at their store.  So in the end, did we imagine how our kitchen would turn out to be?  Is our kitchen what we expected it would be?  Yes! and Yes!

The only pending thing for us  to do in  our kitchen now is to fix the Penisular's countertop.  We've made the the countertop already, just need to sand it down again, varnish it and secure it.

  1. How are you Corinne? Kitchen ready to be used now? Ready for some real baking for Christmas?

    Btw, you have a really cool kitchen. I love the white cabinet with the wood counter top. Very nice combination.

    Can't wait to see how you would be putting your garden together :-)

    Have a great weekend!

  2. Hi Stef,
    We are exhausted. Trying to get the house ready for Christmas. I believe that the kitchen is the heart and soul of one'e home, therefore to receive your comment, I am so glad that I have made the right decision in material, design and color. Thank you.

    I will post some pictures up real soon about my garden. Did some gardening yesterday and hope to pick your brain about some gardening ideas ;-))
