Kitchen Islands





AN island is a great way to add extra worktop space to your kitchen and a deep unit will also add plenty of storage space.

Islands will not be practicable for small or galley kitchens but if you have enough space, they are a stylish and useful addition. The island can be as simple or as elaborate as you want - and can include exactly what you want. Some incorporate a cooker, others are just for extra counter space and storage. It might have a wine rack or a custom-made spice unit.

Its details will, obviously, complement the rest of the kitchen design. Some kitchen islands are elaborate custom-built pieces of fine cabinetry and include a sink, granite counters, a cooktop, cabinets for storage, a second dishwasher, a warming oven, or a small refrigerator.

The simplest and most common kitchen island has a single surface , like a tabletop. But a multi-level island can incorporate both food preparation and eating areas, wine racks, cookbook shelves, bar sinks, deep fryers, and other amenities. A step-down or step-up surface adds interest and separate work areas.

A large kitchen might have room for more than one island. A food preparation island near the sink or stove serves as a work space. A serving or eating island is convenient and useful.

First make some dough. Dissolve the salt in a small amount of hot water. Add the flour and mix to form dough. Add cold water if necessary but don't make the dough too sticky. 2.

This is the base of the clock face. Make a hole in the centre of the clock face, which is large enough to pass the clock spindle through with ease. Roll two long sausages that are long enough to reach around the edge of the base. Twist the sausages together to create a nice rope effect. Fix the twisted ...

Caring For Your Worktops

Picture: Kitchen by Country Kitchens Of Devon www.countrykitchensofdevon.com HOW often do you use your kitchen worktop? Do you have a laminate top, tiles or granite? Most of us don’t give much thought to that cold, flat slab in the kitchen, bathroom or utility room. But perhaps we should, since it can serve a variety of functions that we depend on every day. Let’s talk about the kitchen counter, which lies at the hub of family life and centre of frequent activity. The kitchen worktop is where dirty dishes are stacked, waiting to be loaded into the dishwasher or by hand. Crusty roasters, sticky silverware, and greasy platters bide their time on that beautiful finished surface while we take care of other things before tidying up the kitchen. The worktop may be the place where you wrie letters, open the post or write last-minute notes to family members before heading out the door for the day. It’s where we set down bags of groceries, pet feeding dishes, an armful of dry cleaning, and a ho...
