Cool Pantry--I need this

So the floor plan we are messing around with includes a walk in pantry. Currently it's being moved around to various locations in the kitchen/mudroom area.

BUT, check out this pantry I found on Houzz, it's just so cool, I had to share:

Oh my. That is so beautiful! How on earth can I possibly steal I mean implement this idea?!

They are a "thing" now.

Wow- I bet my enite kitchen could fit into one of those....

marcolo, let's get the terminology up to date...

they are Trending

;)

These are the kinds of things that help me determine how I will get along with the builder. If he "didn't get it", or wasn't impressed--I would know we weren't meant to work together. However, the builder we are currently auditioning had a reaction that was spot on--he loves it and wants it too.

We are doing one in our new build...probably one of my favorite features in the house. (Of course, DH is telling everyone if he ever goes "missing", know there's a secret room behind the fridge...lol!)

Here's the overhead layout - the lower right is where the cabinet door will be, and you can see the pantry layout.

Here's the full kitchen shot...

And, here's the fridge wall - the cabinet to the right is the pantry door.

That is WONDERFUL! Andi - I love your kitchen!

RE: Cool Pantry--I need this

A friend of mine did this hidden pantry door in her kitchen....the pantry room is huge! About 3 times the size of the one you posted originally. And it's not a huge house at all.

RE: Cool Pantry--I need this

I love this idea but it seems like it would be hard to find the space unless the kitchen is a new build.

So--is anyone else wondering what the heck kind of animals those are in Marcolo's photo? Those people are riding giant...DOGS? Horses with mini heads and skinny tails? Whippersnappers?


 o
RE: Cool Pantry--I need this

Very cool. One more thing that can be hidden in the kitchen now, along with fridges and appliances :)

beekeeperswife, on another note, I don't know how close you are going to be moving to where we are, but if it is close enough, you should interview my builder if you haven't finalized on a choice of builder yet. He's fantastic, the quality of the homes he builds is amazing!

shanghaimom - that is hysterical! I have that same pic that I had saved when working with my KD on our design, and I always said the same thing about those pics! What the heck are they? We came up with creepy monkeys on llamas!

RE: Cool Pantry--I need this

What a great idea! What goes around comes around, kind of like pantry's I've seen in old houses that my great Aunt's and Uncle's lived in. I think the difference is the way they are being built & tricked out today. My great grandfather and family were all cabinet/furniture makers in Newport RI in the late 1800's early 1900's. I copied my microwave built in after a cabinet they built. I wish I had the room for one!! Thanks for sharing!!

RE: Cool Pantry--I need this

I sent you an email.

RE: Cool Pantry--I need this

Bee - I didn't know you decided to build? I guess I missed that. Good luck and definitely keep us updated.

And that pantry is amazing!


 o
RE: Cool Pantry--I need this

Llamas...gets my vote...

Bee...looking forward to your new build complete with "trending"... that secret room/pantry will be the envy of all of us...


 o
RE: Cool Pantry--I need this

wow, that is an impressive pantry! i like that is just looks like cabinets in the one you posted bee. but both pics are totally awesome. any woman would be envious!


 o
RE: Cool Pantry--I need this

Oh, I love that! I didn't know you were building either. Did we miss that somehow?
I knew your house was for sale, but nothing about where you're going etc.
Sounds like an adventure!


 o
RE: Cool Pantry--I need this

Neat. In more ways than one. ;-)

Andi K, I can't WAIT to see your kitchen. Love the layout and the drawings.


 o
RE: Cool Pantry--I need this

Not llamas. My parents used to have llamas. I do llove writing that word, though. And I llove llamas. They aren't creepy llike those creatures in the pic.


 o
RE: Cool Pantry--I need this

LOVE this! I'm just excited to get sliding shelves in mine one day! Unless I can figure out a better option for my uber deep, yet skinny pantry.


 o
RE: Cool Pantry--I need this

I'm so jealous. Love the pantry, love the secret door, love the cabinets in all the pictures. Would love to have this...even if it came with the monkey/llama pictures!
