Hi! I am sure you probably mean a 2 pac finish for your kitchen. I would suggest a 30% satin finish so not too glossy. Take a look at Dulux Domino - has been very popular as a great charcoal colour to use.

Go with your gut Tracy..... it is a big investment but I have found that if it makes you smile every time you walk into your kitchen you'll never regret it!!!! I've recently moved into a smaller downsized home with my 3rd black kitchen, with drawers, no cupboards, except for the pantry which we use as the crockery and wine glasses stash. Mine is matt but no handles = no hip bangers! I chose to use snow white stone bench tops, the walls are painted natural white while the floors are pale oak hybrid vinyl.

Great job Deanne. You know working on a budget gets you creative. I think everyone needs the experience for appreciation sake............. enjoy your space and be proud of the simple fact you have your own home and it looks fab. It's a great achievement.

Thankyou to you all for your input. A lot of great advice and ideas. It’s only my husband and I. As it’s our future retirement home. So main bedroom isn’t an issue. As we both are up early . We have added bulk head on entries to ensuite to help divide the room a bit. Entry we like as is. As end wall will be a big feature wall. I’m half inclined to turn is And bench around but the hubby wants to leave it 🤦‍♀️🤷‍♀️ I think we will end up with a clear island bench. Possibly put dishwasher and main sink in butlers . Butlers sink over with the stove. Other end with theatre and BEd 2 and 3 will be closed off unless family and visitors are with us. So won’t be used much at all. Was another bedroom there but we deleted one .so rooms are huge. We moved garage from the other side of the house so it will be closer to the shed and saved another driveway, that’s why the patio 1 is there as a walk through to carry groceries in etc from the car. Always said I’d never build again. I hate making decisions and find it very hard to visualise things 🤦‍♀️🤷‍♀️😂😂😂 Have our joinery consultation next week so wish me luck and I’ll let you all know the outcome😉 Thankyou again for your advice.
