My pantry was a decent size but the configuration made it a really awkward space. I wanted to reposition the large drawers as they were great to use and still in good condition.I rotated the infrastructure of the room, previously the fridge cavity made it really hard to access the contents of the fridge.
I discarded the original benchtop and purchased a new one from Bunnings and shelves to go above it. Due to the changes, the floor was not level so my father placed cement sheet over the whole space before tiling. He also removed the original subway tile splash back. He covered the bottom half of the wall with recycled VJ panelling to tie the space in with the main area of the kitchen.
I painted the panelling white and above this with contrasting pink and blue. I also placed small pink subway tiles above the new benchtop. I cannot believe how much easier it is to move in the space.
