DIY: demolition done for now

i've been wanting to renovate my little { very little } kitchen for a while now but i haven't had so much time for it. { no, i just haven't prioritised it! } but since my friends are coming over i had to do something about the mess... here are some pictures { i apologise for the picture quality... }

this is when i started my demolition project. damned! pretty rough uh?

Great work Tiina! Your kitchen looks good! Can't wait to see the mosaic... I also love the Designers Guild pillows that you bought in London;)

Enjoy your time with friends!

thank you sweet ladies for your words. it's not the and of the renovation, but i feel pleased for making the kitchen at least cookable :) small spaces done on very budget. i am on a process of wanting to sell my flat and buy a bigger one so little fix is needed!

I go away for a few days and you do ALL this?? Wow, you are amazing! Everything looks great. The kitchen - what a transformation! And I want all the pillows on your bed. (I think you and I share a London/UK obsession. I want your mugs too.) GREAT job, Tiina! xoxo, ALEK
