How to Turn a Bathroom into a Kitchen!















































Okay, the 10 key steps for turning a bathroom into a kitchen!

1.Find a bathroom you really don't like.
2. Take out the bath, the shower, the sink, the toilet, the tiles, the flooring, the lighting, and that crappy soap holder.
3. Add a wooden floor, which you will later cover with vinyl.
4. Call in an electrician and plumber.
5. Cover the walls with plaster boards.
6. Say yes to good, darn good, friends who offer to sand and paint said walls and to help lay the vinyl.
7. Keep all small kids away at this point!
8. Fidget at home as the kitchen company come in and install a kitchen you ordered months ago.
9. Sigh with relief that everything has worked out just fine and that sometime soon your kitchen really will become your kitchen..... that is, in 2 weeks time when the electricity and water are turned on 'for real'.
10. Get on with the remaining rooms/house as 2 weeks pass....

love n hugs n new kitchens,

Hi Robyn! Hope you are very close to moving into your beautiful new home, if you aren't in there already. Hard to believe that it is the same place - all your hard work and vision have really paid off.
Love those new windows letting in all that beautiful light.

Lesley,

Thank you for your kind words! Really, it is incredible to see all the changes taking place so quickly. I am so used to working for money (and for my students!) that it feel great to be working, physically working, to make something so very real and tangible: our future!

love n hugs,
Robynx
ps/ the spare room will be there for you anytime you want to come across to this half of the world ;-)
