It’s easily been the most controversial thing I’ve ever posted, removing the previous kitchen we originally fitted caused uproar with people calling us wasteful and ‘having more money than sense’ 
It’s quite the opposite 🤣 
In part one we showed the mistake we made installing the modern kitchen which covered the stretch of wall where the old fireplace once was. We soon realised we needed to reinstate old fire to warm this old chapel efficiently. 
So we painstaking removed the kitchen, wrapped it and numbered it and sold it to a lovely couple who are renovating a rectory ! (It wasn’t wasted) 
And being told we have more money than sense may seem what it looks like from the outside but in reality this new kitchen is a total DIY to save money as we convert this old chapel into our home. 
I had always wanted a traditional French louvre style kitchen but we were quoted £20k-£30 just for the carpentry which by the way is totally worth the craftsmanship... we just aren’t in a position to spend that.
So when I found these matching cabinets I knew we could do something clever, achieving ‘the look for less’😍
I have never liked the look of ovens and appliances on snow so wanted the ability to ‘shutter’ them away which we are able to with these doors (They allow plenty of ventilation!) 
I’m transforming the other cabinet into a blue and white surprise. A show stopping coffee station / pantry, after all this time it is my dream kitchen ! 
Stay tuned for part 3 as we source the stone slabs for the worktops 😍😍😍
Love Jack and Alex Xx
