Say hello to the April issue of Kitchens Bedrooms & Bathrooms – out now! From our beginner’s guide to kitchen renovating to fresh bathroom design ideas and tips for choosing a new mattress, this issue is packed with practical advice and inspiration.
There’s something about April I’ve always loved – yes, probably because it’s my birthday month (and now it’s also my daughter Emmeline’s – which just so happens to be the same day as mine). Perhaps it’s because the days are lighter, with more sunshine, and the weather, while unpredictable, can be glorious.
It also feels like you’re properly getting stuck into the year; the dark gloomy months are behind you, plus it’s Easter, so there’s a lot of chocolate floating around, and it’s totally OK to eat it. Summer is just round the corner, plans are being made… it’s simply a positive month all round.
Kitchen renovating 101
That’s what I hope this issue is for you: a very positive, handy guide for your project. Whether it’s images you want to cut out and stick in a scrapbook (trust me, it really is useful to take along to designers, plus it’s super-fun), or you need help figuring out where to start or who you need to talk to, or are simply after ideas you just hadn’t heard of or thought of yet.
The internet and social media are great, but when you don’t know what to look for, that search tool can feel mightily overwhelming. Let us be that initial step in your research, especially if it’s a kitchen transformation you’re dreaming of.
The in-depth beginner’s guide to kitchen renovation in our April issue is an invaluable source of knowledge for the first-time renovator.
Fresh design ideas
We have handy tips on what you need to consider when designing a bathroom and buying a mattress – perfect if you’re completing a total house project.
We also have plenty of other features to inspire you in our April issue, ranging from big, project-defining ideas, to the little details that make all the difference.
And, as a little treat, this month, we went with two covers! We were simply too spoilt for choice. Below is our Readly-exclusive cover featuring TV personality Olivia Bowen in her new warm, welcoming kitchen.
I really hope you enjoy the issue as much as I enjoyed putting it together, and thank you for choosing KBB to help you on your journey to your dream home.
