Kitchen Design (Again)

The kitchen has been bought and paid for but we will have to wait four weeks (maybe longer) for delivery. Here is the final version. The floor tiles and wall colours are just here for effect and probably won't be what we will actually use.

We ended up spending a little more than I had wanted as all of this cost just over £1200 including the sink and taps but excluding any appliances. The worktop looks like granite and I have bought the splash back to go with it as that adds a nice finishing touch.

In order to deliver a kitchen within the initial budget (£1500) we will need to buy an oven (we already have a hob) and a dishwasher for less than £300.00. That might be a challenge. I think it will be nearer £600.00 as the oven will need a grill as well. We could elect to go for a free standing dishwasher which will reduce the costs.

I don't intend to buy the appliances yet. It is possible that we will have enough room for a full size dishwasher rather than a slimline one but it depends on how thick the plaster is!
