There are 2 shelves which currently have pans on them. I was wondering about Kilner jars, one for knives, one for forks, etc. the tea towels may well be in a nice basket for the time being. It's funny. I love this house so much and can't wait to live there yet this drawer business is really playing in my mind!

I’m at my desk in the family room and my husband has set up office in the dining room. Teenage son is studying in his bedroom and daughter is home schooling between my husband and I - depending on who has meetings etc and is most available to help. She’s using an ottoman for a desk with footstool to sit on when with me and is at the opposite end of the dining room table when she’s with her dad. My top tip is to clear all work/study/school stuff away at the end of every day to give us our home back again. I put my laptop etc into my rucksack and stash that away in the cupboard and my husband and daughter have a drawer each that I cleared out in the dining room sideboard at the start of lockdown, for all their school and work stuff. When I’m finished working, I open the windows to let all the work vibes out, light a lovely smelling candle and I’m home.

It looks to me like a beech 5 piece shaker style door. Our supplier no longer offers beech doors as standard off the shelf as they are no longer sought after (handleless, gloss and super matt seem to be most popular for our area) but they are available Made to Order. So yes you can get them. You just need to find a local supplier. I doubt you’ll get to see a sample if they’re not standard stock so it might be a case of chancing it for a close up on colour but the design in beech is available, as are all end panels.

The door handle is in the same position as yours, in the upper centre of the door. There is no room for door hinges, but even if there was room I still want the door to pull out like a drawer rather than swing open so that there is immediate access to the contents of the attached drawer. I know it would have to be the bottom drawer. If you have any suggestions as to the best way to attach it that would be great.
