And now the kitchen. If you remember the kitchen used to be all wood colored. We both weren't so fond of the wood, it was dated and remind me of the 90s. So we asked our apartment company if they could paint it white. They could for about 100 SEK a month added on to our rent, not so bad! Just last week they finished painting and put our cabinet doors back, here's the finished product.
This is the view from the dining nook. The door in the back is to the laundry room. I think the kitchen looks a lot brighter and calmer in white even though the lights are off. The white also works better with the backsplash. The outside of our fridge is a bit of a mess, we keep important memos, concert tickets, and a bit of memorabilia on it. Eventually I'd like a bulletin board placed at the left of the laundry room door for all of that stuff.
We got new hardware too (which was totally unexpected).
Sorry this photo is so crooked. We hung IKEA utensil holders under the cabinets so we could reach our most used kitchen utensils easier. It's a bit cluttered which I hate but it's better than them being stuffed in drawers. Perhaps one day I'll show the insides of the cabinets but for now our chipped bowls, mismatched silverware, and odd number of plates, glasses, and bowls remains hidden!
