i think this is one of the most beautiful kitchens i have ever seen. seriously. i would KILL for a space like that to work in, it’s beautiful!!!!

i’m curious about the part where it says you dyed the perimeters with india ink? how exactly did you do that, and why? i am moving into a rowhome in philadelphia that was built in 1915. it has a fairly small 10×10 kitchen that we will be redoing and we will be going with Ikea cabinets and probably some appliances…at least the pro-style range.

Hi,

This is my first entry into IKEAworld on the web and have found that one can make an IKEA live in an 1840 home (as we have). I would like to ask if you had an IKEA contractor, where in the country you live, and if you did any of the work yourself? Congratulations on a beautiful kitchen!

This has to be one of my favorite Ikea kitchens ever! So creative.

And thanks for blogging this, Susan.

A gorgeous kitchen! And I will definitely by copying your ink-dyed countertops in our remodel. We were hoping to have some soapstone and some butcher block, but have decided we can’t afford the stone just now and will do all butcher block. But if we stain the area we wanted to be soapstone it will give us the look we want. Thanks!
