placement of calendar

2 years ago

we just the did our kitchen and I need to find a new location for our wall calendar. (Feel lost without it)
I’m debating between these two walls right when you walk into the kitchen. The problem is the wall on the right has a light switch so the calendar can go above it, and the corkboard part can go below it. There would be a gap in between the two areas due to the light switch plate. Just wondering if that would look weird with the gap in between or do I just put the calendar only..? I also wanted to do a cutting board wall but I do t think I can mix it all together without it looking too mix matched?

    What is a ”cutting board wall”? My vote is for calendar & BB to be on the indented wall on right - mostly so they’ll be hidden from view at front entry & not obscure view into your beautiful new kitchen 😊. I don’t think having a space between calendar & BB for easy light switch access is an issue.

    Thank you for input @KW PNW Z8, I agree with that as well.

    Cutting board wall is something like this

    Thanks for pic - looks great. Do you have another wall available for a cutting board wall that’s close to prep area?

    I agree with the above comment that the indented wall is the better place out of the two walls you show.

    I am not a fan of the cutting board wall, sorry! The pics of course look perfect, but in reality the likelihood is for it to look cluttered and busy. Plus, do you actually have a bunch of light-weight circular or narrow boards like that? A useful cutting board is larger, heavier, and rectangular. Or, if you are using small boards for charcuterie or cheese boards, do you have that many? I would not use up wall space for a busy display.

    Neither. The stair way from the entry has enough stuff on the wall for the kitchen as well. The kitchen is very nice- don’t clutter up the walls. Maybe do a calendar on the inside of a large cabinet door.

    Your backsplash is exactly what we have been looking for. Who is the manufacuturer? Lovely kitchen!!!

    Some of us need the calendar visible. Out of sight, out of mind.

    Lovely kitchen! i agree with the others—nix the cutting board idea and put your calendar there. your instincts that mixing the two would be too cluttered are correct.
