Routed handles on kitchen drawers that can be difficult to get a grip on when fully loaded.
Handles that give good grip purchase but can get caught on as you walk by.

What do you have in your third drawer down?
Comments (38)This ia a really old article. My third drawer now houses all those 'one off' bits and pieces that don't warrant a drawer for themselves and their ilk. Amazingly, when I need...that thinamejig or whatzit that would do the trick its always in the thrid drawer. tangled up with all the other 'third drawer' one offs. So - third drawer for whatever you need! Pretty good system really. Apologies to the professional cabinet makers who cater to the super organised...drawers with partitions. Honestly, if I absolutely had to live according to the norm.."a place for everything and everything in its place" I'd go a bit batty trying to remember what was supposed to occupy what partition and I think, the way my mind works, I'd feel quite frustrated. I don't have time to be super duper organised down to the colour coding, the things of square or round shape, the plastics and the chinas...and I certainly do not posess a china cabinet where to display all the expensive and heirloom dinnerware. that would never get used...can't see the sense. In fact, I only have six drawers in my kitchen and a nice large 100yr old built in linen and pantry cupboard down the length of the hallway that was built to house the basic kitchen utensils and also has room for any modrn appliances. My kitchen is small, functional, individual ane compact, My beautiful wrinkly assistance dog has his own drawer...and he diligently takes out and replaces his "stuff". My bits and pieces live in the third drawer and when all is put way there's a sense of ease in my kitchen....See MoreYay or nay? Timber paneling
Comments (7)Yay, so after 30 years my house is back in fashion again!!! I don't like panelling everywhere, but I really don't see anything wrong with some as a feature, and the best part is that it handles knocks, is easy to keep clean and NEVER needs painting. Why does "practical" have to be trendy??...See MoreBefore and after – Hamptons kitchen
Comments (7)Re purposing the space making it work harder. Lovely windows. Pot drawers work so much better. Fresh and bright. We replaced our pine doors to alabaster shaker style cabinetry with matching walls and ceiling. Rebuilt pantry with sliding door with sensor light and an island bench with drawers each side. Worth the investment of bespoke cabinetry....See MoreRight or Left handle fridge?
Comments (8)The fridge space looks quite wide; perhaps wide enough for a French door fridge. I have one of these in my small kitchen / dining space which is in constant use with kids coming & going or sitting at the table in front of the fridge. It was the best decision we made after having a traditional single door fridge previously. the doors are 1/2 the width of a standard door therefore don't take up so much space when open & the kids are standing in front with both doors wide open contemplating their choices! If you went for a single door fridge; go for the hinge on the left for the best liveable option available given the limited space, unfortunately this still will block the laundry door....See Morekjn_inc
