" I feel like I'm standing in the middle of a magazine whenever I go in my beautiful new kitchen."
That is what the happy homeowner had to say about her new kitchen with IKEA Adel brown cabinets when it was finished. Comments like that are a true testament to the quality and excellent design of IKEA cabinets. Of course it takes more than cabinets to make a great kitchen. It takes vision, planning and craftsmanship to pull all the elements together. You have paint, tile, counters, appliances, sinks, lighting, wall textures, ventilation, etc. to combine like a great recipe. Great cooks know the end result is only as good as the ingredients and the skill of the cook.
In this case, there were many cooks for this kitchen. The home owner had a vision and wanted to stay on a reasonable budget. Together with sweat equity, help from the family and skilled labor used only where necessary, it all came together. The layout was basically left unchanged, but more counter space was one goal along with increased storage, and it could not be all about function, there had to be some style.
The sink, and dishwasher were left in place to avoid the expense of moving plumbing, and the stove and exhaust were pushed over a few inches to move the stove out of the corner and accommodate drawers in the base cabinet. The refrigerator was the only major appliance relocation. The original kitchen layout accommodated a small table on one wall, but with a semi-casual dining area with a view to the lake right outside the kitchen door, it was not needed and that wall was perfect for the refrigerator and pantry.
The homeowner with help from family members, removed the old cabinets, tiled the floor, painted the walls, installed new lights and had a perfectly open space for us to install the new cabinets. This made our job easy and saved money that could be invested in higher grade appliances, and granite counters.
The basic cabinet assembly and installation for this project was $1703.00. That included modifying the length of the blind corner to fit the narrow space and cutting and installing the frig panel at the end of a cabinet run.
