little_apricot's ideas

I want to find spectacular ideas that will work for my kitchen space. I have a long, narrow kitchen and want lots of storage, an island that seats at least 4, a work space for the lap-top, lots of lighting, and I want to hide my after-dinner-mess. This kitchen will also be the dining room for a while until we get our other dining room renovated. I also want the flooring to be the same and continuous from the kitchen to the dining room. I want it to look big...I've been cramped up for too long!
