great filler cab--annoying problem! sorry no suggestions.

I wouldn't focus too much on the price - it looks like plan B might have a different amount of countertop too, which would either add or decrease the price. We found that the additional cost of a pantry over a base+wall, was far less than the additional countertop needed on top of sections of base cabinet.

i posted them in the gallery. previously the images were too big and it took forever to upload. thanks for the advice.

Ummm... What loft bed?

Blogs aren't the best place to ask questions like that anyway, if you'd like, upload a picture (or several) of the bed in question to the Bedroom and Closet gallery here: IKEAFANS - Galleries - Access Denied and select the create a thread option. That'll create a thread in the appropriate forum (yup... the Bedroom and Closet forum) where you've got a better chance of it being seen by the right people.

Oh, here is where I posted the two plans. For plan B, if we do it, we would put in cabinets all the way across.

The difference in price is about $150 (plan A is more expensive).

Will be interested to know how you get on.
Really pleased with the kitchen that goes in this week.
I had to drill screw holes slightly to get the plain drawers to fit flush with the panelled ones. Good luck!

Ouch. I'll let you know if I suffer the same experience sometime next week, when it comes time to install the Tidaholm fronts.

Hi! You will get a better response in the forums if you have a question. Blogs are like journals....for telling your story. Forums are for questions and answers. Try posting in the Assembly and Installation forum for a quick response (keeping in mind that it's a holiday weekend in the US!).

Welcome to IKEAFANS!

You are right, that is one thing I need to take care during the installation, to make it worse there's a window sill right behind the faucet, but I am making my own sill so I can make it very flush with the wall. It's a good thing I don't need a countertop to install this sink, so it is easier to adjust the position.

This is the faucet we will have


you push the lever back to get hot water, there isn't a problem rotating the whole assembly so the control lever it is not exactly pointing right though.

The only thing shocking about the sink is that it looks a little big (36") unfortunately my window was exactly 36" and getting a 30" or 33" + fillers wouldn't have look as nice in the cabinet. We have no issues using a sink that big (it will be very functional), just worried it may look out of proportion. But the side lips should be covered by the counter almost 1" on each side, so it's almost 34" only and my old drop in with rim, still took up a 33" estate

What a pretty sink! How much room do you need behind it to make sure that the faucet handle can move around freely (including the depth of whatever backsplash you are planning)? That might put some constraint on how far you can push it back. I think it'll look nice flush like you said, or pulled out a bit. It's going to look very nice with the liljestad doors.

It's all gone! alot of drywall mud repairs and washing, it's ready to paint this weekend.

OH I love that sink.....

How did the wall paper go - is it all gone?

Probably an original jerker

Thanks guys. Good to hear from you both. Yes value is definitely a big thing for me too but I think there's something more. Maybe you can help me (I've just posted another entry...) I'm looking for a young couple (who are just in the process of kitting out their home with Ikea stuff ).... it's for an upcoming project and I'd love to speak to them. Any ideas where to start...?

I keep wavering between Stat & Fagerland-- but I think as of right now, it will be Stat.

I love kitchens with double wall cabs--that lamp over the sink is great touch. Congrats!

WOW! Looks great.

Thanks for your help, I'm kind of new to this.

Have you decided on a cabinet style yet?

Have not heard any updates - I hope you are still not working on that wall paper?
