La reforma de la
cocina fue un proyecto esperado desde hacía mucho tiempo. Iba a ser una obra
grande, ya que comedor diario, cocina y lavadero se convertirían en un solo
ambiente amplio e integrado.
Después de tanto mirar
e inspirarme con los recién descubiertos blogs de decoración algunas ideas
estaban bien claras: ninguna alacena alta, bué….ninguna alacena mejor. Sí
estantes a la vista, canastos grandes para guardar cosas, bacha de loza
blanca…en realidad bachas, ya que no encontré una de ese tipo con división
(cosa que es fundamental para mí para lavar los platos), muebles antiguos… Y quedó
así,
The kitchen redo was a long waited project. It was going to be a big work, because kitchen, dinning room and laundry room will turn into only one big and open space.
After following so many wonderful blogs and reading so many deco magazines some ideas were very clear: No to canister lights, upper cabinets, as a matter of fact, no cabinets at all..! Yes to open shelving, large storage baskets , white farm sink ... actually sinkS because finally I decided to have two of them as I couldn't find one of this kind broken up into two sections (which is essential for me to wash dishes), antique furniture ... and this is how it came up ,

El mostrador y el
mueble vitrina eran de un viejo almacén, la mesa de madera cuya tapa parece
separada - donde comemos todos los días- es un viejo tablero de dibujo y el
mueble que está contra la pared debajo de los estantes era de un señor que
arreglaba televisores, y es el único de ellos que pinté.
The counter and the cupboard belonged to an old grocery store and the island -where we have dinner every day- is an old drawing board. The table you see under the shelves had been used in a radio repairing store and was the only one we painted.

Al mostrador sólo le
agregamos un estante para poder acomodar mejor los platos y otras cosas de uso
diario y la vitrina aloja principalmente a mi colección de vajilla infantil
antigua.
In the counter we installed a shelf to place tableware. The cuppboard is mainly for my vintage child´s cups and plates collection.

Al pensar en cómo decorar
una de las paredes primero pensamos en una galería de fotos familiares en
blanco y negro pero después nos decidimos por publicidades de revistas antiguas
a las cuales nosotros mismos les pusimos distintos marcos.
When thinking about how to decorate one of the walls our first thought was a black and white photo gallery but then we decided to look for vintage ads in old magazines and we framed them (a DIY project).

Una especial mención
para “la” columna, que cumple función de sostén luego de haber tirado varias
paredes y que fue una elección de mi esposo, muy orgulloso de ella y sin
dejarse doblegar por quienes le preguntaban con qué la iba a revestir (¿?).
Special mention to "the" beam, which meets holding function after removing several walls and it was my husband´s choice , who is very proud of it and hasn't been convinced by those who asked how was he going to cover it (??)

No los quiero cansar
con la recorrida, guardo algunos otros detalles o ángulos para algún otro post.
Me despido con una
imagen de mi repasador de cabecera
I don't want to bore you with the tour, I keep some other details for future posts.
Before saying goodbye I'll show you ony of my favourite kitchen towel
