Waiting For My Dream Kitchen! #FinishYourKitchen
I’m a stay-at-home mom and a lover of food, so I naturally spend a lot of time in the kitchen. Not only do I cook all my 2-year-old daughter’s food, but I also create ‘gourmet’ meals over the weekend to unwind. That’s why I am sad to say, my kitchen is anything but my dream kitchen!
Living in the city, my husband and I rent. Overall our apartment is nice, but the kitchen is in need of an update. Our landlord is less than enthusiastic about changing anything in our kitchen. The paneling on the cabinets are coming off and my counters don’t match! The last appliance I got in my kitchen was a second-hand stove! To say the least, I wasn’t as excited as the landlord.
Now that Ava has reached toddlerhood we are planning to move to the suburbs and buy our own house in a year or two. I think about my dream kitchen frequently. One where I have beautiful wood floors, cream colored cabinets, marble counters and stainless steel appliances. A kitchen straight out of a fancy home design magazine! Realistically speaking, I’ll be lucky to get just one of these things when we buy our first house. A girl can dream though, right?
In my dream kitchen the surroundings would be visually appealing with the cream colors and natural light. Making food would be more enjoyable! I see myself now, making gnocchi (pictured above) and feeling like a real chef in a beautiful kitchen!
For now, I will have to be satisfied with the one thing I do own in my kitchen – my dishwasher! I can’t imagine how many hours I would spend cleaning without one. We dirty dishes at an unimaginable rate and Finish Powerballs are my go-to detergent. Not only do they clean my dirty dishes great, but they come out sparkly and lemony fresh!

Your dream kitchen is beautiful. My kitchen is no way a dream kitchen. Sometimes I wonder …would I even know how to act in a kitchen that neat! Hope you get your dream kitchen soon.
I dream of a kitchen with lots and lots of cabinet space!
I would love your dream kitchen. When I laid plans for my kitchen I was so happy I got a new stove and Fridge. I think I would plan a much bigger kitchen if I could do it over. Just not enough room in my design!
Your dream kitchen is so bright and airy! I dream of a kitchen where my drawers glide smooth, where I have enough storage to have clear counter-tops, and where everything has its place.
I love this post it is so good and I love your dream kitchen – so spacy and I love that island. I am like you at this point I can afford the dishwasher and the dishsoap.
Who would not want such a kitchen? Perhaps you will have one of those someday…..
My kitchen isn’t remotely close to a dream. It’s cluttered and small and inefficient! I’ll keep dreaming too!
I recently replaced all my old kitchen appliances and they have made spending time in my kitchen so much more enjoyable. I would love to replace my cabinets next.
I would LOVE a new kitchen! Mine is fine, but updates are always welcomed!
I love your dream kitchen!
I definitely want to redo my kitchen. There are some major changes that I would make.
What a great contest!
You deserve a dream kitchen! I love the one you have picked out and hope it happens for you!!
i dream of real kitchen cabinets. ours are piecemeal and JUNK!
my kitchen isbrett more of a nightmare dream 🙂
my kitchen right now is more a full blown nightmare 🙂
my kitchen as it stands is more a nightmare.
I want new cabinets!
I love my kitchen and there is only one thing I would do to change it. I would change the color of the cabinets. You have chosen some great kitchens to dream about.
Ugh, I would love a new kitchen!!
We own our home and hope to replace our new-to-us appliances with stainless steel very soon. But we have been her for over 7 years, so we will see….
My dream kitchen would be big! Lots of counter space and an island in the middle. I’d love wood floors and dark solid wood cabinets. ANd of course, nice stainless steel appliances.
I dream of a kitchen that looks like paradise!
Oh wow! That’s gorgeous! I want that kitchen too!
