Kitchen renovations are underway. 🤎
We are going for an unfitted Kitchen in our 110 year old house. If you aren’t familiar with what that is, it’s often characterized by its use of freestanding furniture, second hand or antique finds, and a look of individual workstations rather than built-in, wall-to-wall cabinets.
This style suits us better and offers us much more creative freedom. It takes time to gather or to build in this way and I plan on doing both. To be honest, we don’t have much of a budget for it at all, so it will have to take us time. Luckily I am a rather wild and unhinged scavenger, a ridiculously determined treasure hunter, and a self taught builder ~ DIYer so thankfully this lessens the financial burden tremendously.
I’ll begin building our workstation for the sink area soon with some beautiful super wide planked wood that I picked up from an old barn in Frenchtown. Excellent Facebook Marketplace find ✔️ if I do say so.
Things will come together over time and finding this first piece at to house our daily dish ware is a beautiful starting point and my inspiration to the look and feel of what’s to come.
