My domain ..!!

The earlier kitchen was too tiny... the new extension will give double the space... Now all I have to do, is figure out how to fit in all the components to utilize space to the max...!!!


The kitchen window.... Hopefully will provide enough natural light. A sunny kitchen is most important...



Another nook that will be my own... my work-nook with the bay window...can't wait to see it finished.

The stages...!!


First - the demolition - the doorway of the kitchen gets widened... now we should be able to get a fridge through, easily !!!

Off with the old....!! the mosaic is cut out in neat little blocks ..maybe we can find some use for it later !!!



The columns for the first floor extension are being readied..

View of the ground-floor extended kitchen from the first floor..............

....and from below...

Sigh... so much more work to be done.... the waiting is tedious...

Some pics of things that appeal ...



I like the gate... clean lines and no fuss... i especially can do without the scrolls and flowery patterns on the gates that are usually seen everywhere...


I would love to use these natural tiles as backsplash for the kitchen ...have not decided on the size or the shape of the tiles, though...!!!



Wonder why mosaics went out of fashion... I really like this one ...

Love the colour and the pattern of the tiles...
Want this tile for my kitchen floor.. love the colour, the glossy surface which is easy to clean and best of all, no two tiles are alike. This is natural stone....but all said, I may finally come across yet another great tile... it is very difficult to make up our minds ...!!!

So watch this space to see what we end up with...
