I found the best way to get my children to sit and eat meals when they were little was to all sit down together to eat - sends a message to them that it's eating time and this is what we do when we eat,children will get bored if they have to sit and eat alone and 'hovering ' around them while they eat is probably a bit irritating to them! Btw my large fridge freezer has double doors which means each one is smaller than a single door and makes it easier to open them as they take up much less room.

Its how we generally do in french families. BUT my child is only one year now, so... Can't say yet if it works that much but it's definitely how we will handle it. We are already mentally preparing ourself to have dinner more early. 😂

Lily, of your considering renovating your kitchen primarily to get more freezer space, have you looked into getting a stand alone freezer to put in another room? It's quite common in north america to get a small freezer. We usually keep it in the storage room or garage. Maybe you could keep one in the cupboard/storage area under the stairs and use is as your "overflow" freezer space?

If you are going to be painting over your existing kitchen without priming it, it’s a good idea to sample paint colours the same way. The black over a cardboard will look different to a black over a primed white base and again different to being painted over The Hague blue that is currently on the cabinets. Cheers!

With the fridge, we have a fridge one side and freezer the other (one big thing) but honestly trying to get anything into the freezer is a nightmare. Pizza boxes are too wide! So personally would recommend a fridge on top and freezer drawers underneath x

I finally got a side-by-side fridge freezer that fits the pizza boxes that I purchase exactly. I think I heard angels singing the first time I threw a pizza in there.

Hi Lily! I have a south faced kitchen in black and it looks amazing but in a sunny day you can see every single particle of dust and even the minuscule stains. I’m forever cleaning to make it look nice. I do love how everything around stands out against the black but not sure if it’s worthy how much effort requires to make it look that nice. Good luck! X

The black kitchen will look incredible with the black crittle doors, cook top and hood and black fridge! I wouldn’t doubt it for a second. White kitchens have been the standard look for a very long time and they still look great, I’m sure the same is going to happen to black kitchens so you know it won’t look dated quickly.
@EmmiLa3 жыл бұрын
Yess, the black would look stunning in the kitchen! Go for it! I agree that you need the contrast with the splashback and the worktops, black is a stunning colour for kitchens. Also, something you could think about for the little gap between the fridge and the wall would be vertical narrow storage that pulls out. You could use it for dry ingredients in glass jars like you already have, spices, or whatever really that fits in a narrow deep space. Pinterest has tons of examples when you search for pull out pantry. You could then make the actual pantry just a little more narrow, have enough space to open both fridge doors well, and still be able to utilise the space right next to the wall.

Love the black for your kitchen ! It will give a nice contrast with the white I think! I had the same problem with blue paint (not hague blue but very similar) it looked way too blue in the sunlight so in the end I only really liked the color in the evening light , but again it's hard to know beforehand! Can't wait to see the change if you eventually do it ! Also Grey is adorable and you are so great with her it's lovely to see :)

My bench top is similar to yours and I have very dark charcoal cupboards (not black when you see them against a true black), white walls etc and I love it. One thing though, & I knew this going in to having really dark cupboards but its actually worse in reality haha. Im constantly cleaning finger marks off and I don’t have toddlers 🤪 it drives me insane (we have handles but there is still always finger marks everywhere). Also, I know you obviously need a bigger fridge but I hope you don’t regret making your pantry/larder smaller in future years as your family grows 😊.
