mwerkz 0 Report post Posted November 17, 2008 lol. the voodoo knife holder is a little big to be sitting under the dishrack due to height cos the dishrack is mounted slightly above the sink tap. Plus my hubby prefer compact knife holder.. So its not the problem of not having enough space on countertop haha. ok. i guess i know wat ur hubby means kitchen shd not have black and red as a general rule of thumb for FS.. if you believe. erms.. but i guess i have to choose not to believe. anyway got alot of red n black kitchens out there too Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I also thinking of that, but no resource to do it. i'll still be doing ikea concept table, but with solid wood. his dad says wood comes in size of 2.4X1.2m. so basically cutting it into 1.6X1.2m & 0.8X1.2m pieces to do a L-shape table =p de wood itself cost 40bucks. another 40bucks to do de laminate (approx). den get the metal to fit below de wood so it doesn't warp + legs from ikea. maybe it'll cost ard 200+ for de table?
