I wanted to throw this somewhere--but its WAY too dry to put on my a03--so here, baratie room headcanon, kind of because i like to think the chefs at the baratie whove been there for awhile care about each other. And that Zeff's s good manager but through ACTIONS (I cant believe it took me this long to use my creative writing class as an excuse to write fanfiction)

You learn a lot about a restaurant’s management from its storeroom. On the starboard side of the Baratie, a massive maritime restaurant, and tucked behind a port-hole door in the back right corner of the kitchen, there is a broken freezer. It acts as the ship's break room. The room smells mainly of dry goods–dust wood, wax, and the kerosine–like smell that wafts off of burlap sacks–and faintly of food from delicious smells that creep under the door from the kitchen behind it. Two large, nondescript storage shelves take up the entire left-hand wall. Above the shelves is a wide, porthole-window that floods the room with light. A few feet to the right of the second shelf, and against the back wall there is a seating area: A table made of a barrel and a round slab of repurposed wood from deck repairs, four pseudo-chairs, two decks of cards, and a lamp. The chairs are a motley collection of recycled objects: One was a crate; another was a well-made child’s step up ladder with two wide, flat steps; a third is a rickety stool made from the legs and seat bottom of a rickety chair; the fourth is another crate.

A pile well-worn of blankets sits behind the table in the back right corner of the room. Further down the right wall, two smaller shelves filled with more dry goods take up the wall space closest to the front wall of the room. Though those shelves aren’t only filled with dry goods, they hold extra clothing for the chefs, dried meat, and old-well worn cookbooks. They hold silverware for lunch breaks and have extra shelves for chefs to leave their lunches. On the shelf that fits into the front right corner of the room there are muscle-rollers for sore legs fitted into a X-shaped wine rack.

Up against the front wall of the room, just a few steps to the right of the door lies a utility cabinet. It contains all your typical first aid supplies–rolls of clean bandages, needle, thread, scissors, painkillers, even acupuncture needles–and something a little more caring. A chef has to take care of their hands simply because they use them so vigorously and so often.

In the cabinet, just a shelf above a first aid kit there is a collection of containers-jars, pots, bottles, even corked vases–of hand care items: anti-inflammatory creams for joints, ointments, scar-oil, tigerbalm, and other miscellaneous mixtures that are either meant to heat or soothe hand muscles to stop cramping. There is a little remedy book in there made of tanned-pig-skin and stitched together with butcher's twine. Its pages, well worn and thin, contain remedies written in different colors of ink by countless hands. Helpful notes and stars litter the margins denoting what works and what doesn't. So pages, so well worn and torn, are tucked back into the book in tatters, their contents on another page to help future users. The very ink of that little book smells of love and community. The second I stepped into the room, I knew that the Head Chef of the ship’s kitchen cared deeply about their workers.

How to Create a Unique Kitchen Island Design on a Budget

Are you bored with your kitchen island design? Do you crave a unique and stunning feature that will make your kitchen stand out? Look no further! We have compiled a list of budget-friendly tips and tricks to help you create a one-of-a-kind kitchen island design that will impress your guests and make your cooking space feel like new.

1. Assess Your Space

Before you start planning your new kitchen island design, take a step back and assess your existing space. Consider the size and shape of your kitchen, as well as the placement of your existing island. Take note of any potential obstacles that might impact your design, such as doors or windows, and make sure to measure the available space accurately.

2. Decide on Your Design

The next step is to decide on your design. Do you want a rustic look with a natural wood finish, or a sleek and modern design with a marble countertop? You could also consider adding extra features like a built-in wine rack or a breakfast bar. Once you have decided on your design, make a list of the materials and tools you will need to bring it to life.

3. Shop Around

Now that you have your design in mind, it’s time to start shopping around for materials. Don’t be afraid to get creative! Check out your local thrift stores and salvage yards for vintage items that can be repurposed, or look online for deals on surplus materials. You can also save money by painting or staining existing furniture, like an old dresser.

4. DIY Your Island

One of the best ways to save money on your kitchen island design is to do it yourself. With a little bit of elbow grease and some basic tools, you can create a unique and personalized island that is tailored to your taste. Check out DIY tutorials online for inspiration and step-by-step instructions.

5. Add Some Color

Inject some personality into your kitchen island design by adding a pop of color. Painting the base of your island a bright hue or adding colorful tiles to the countertop can make a big impact without breaking the bank. You could also add colorful accessories, like a vase of flowers or a patterned dish towel, to bring some life and energy into your space.

6. Get Creative with Storage

A kitchen island is not just a decorative feature; it can also provide much-needed storage space. Get creative with your storage solutions by adding shelves, drawers, or even a built-in wine rack. You can also repurpose existing items, like a vintage toolbox or a wicker basket, to create unique and functional storage options.

7. Make it Mobile

If you have a small kitchen or limited counter space, a mobile kitchen island might be the perfect solution. You can create a DIY island on wheels using a repurposed cart or table, or invest in a pre-made option that can be easily moved around your space. A mobile island gives you the flexibility to use your space in a way that works best for you.

8. Final Touches

Now that your kitchen island design is complete, it’s time to add the final touches. Consider adding a statement light fixture above your island to draw attention and add some ambiance to your space. You could also add some finishing touches, like decorative hardware or a unique backsplash, to tie everything together.

Conclusion

In conclusion, creating a unique kitchen island design on a budget is totally doable with a little bit of creativity and some hard work. Remember to assess your space, decide on your design, shop around for materials, and get creative with storage solutions. With these tips, you can create a one-of-a-kind island that will elevate your cooking space to the next level.

Some ideas and tips for efficient dining room storage

Dining room storage is an essential aspect of home organization, especially when you want to keep your space tidy and functional. Here are some ideas and tips for efficient dining room storage:

Buffet Servers and Sideboards:These large pieces of furniture are perfect for storing dinnerware, glassware, and serving pieces. They often have shelves and cabinets for ample storage.

China Cabinets:A china cabinet is ideal for displaying and protecting your best dinnerware and glassware. They typically have glass doors to keep dust off while showcasing your collection.

Dining Hutches:Similar to a china cabinet, a hutch provides both display and storage space. They often have open shelves at the top for decorative items and cabinets below for storage.

Built-In Cabinets:If you have the space, built-in wall cabinets can offer a lot of storage without taking up floor space. They can be customized to fit your specific needs.

Floating Shelves:Installing floating shelves on your dining room walls can provide additional storage for decorative items, cookbooks, or small appliances.

Under-Table Storage:If you have a dining table with a pedestal base, consider adding a drawer or two for storing table linens, placemats, or tableware.

Wine Racks:A wine rack can be a stylish and functional addition to your dining room, storing your wine bottles and possibly some wine glasses.

Storage Benches:A storage bench can serve as extra seating and provide storage for table linens, pillows, or blankets.

Expandable Tables:Consider a dining table with a leaf or extension that can be added when you have more guests, and then stored away when not in use.

Over-the-Door Storage:Utilize the back of your dining room door with over-the-door storage solutions for things like tablecloths or rarely used dinnerware.

Drawer Organizers:Use drawer organizers to keep flatware, napkins, and other small items neat and easily accessible.

Wall-Mounted Wine Glasses Holders:Hang wine glasses on the wall to save space and add a decorative touch.

Rolling Carts:A rolling cart can be a mobile storage solution for serving pieces, drinks, or extra table settings.

Vintage Armoire:An armoire can be repurposed as a unique storage solution for your dining room, offering both style and functionality.

Digital Storage Solutions:For those with limited space, consider digital storage solutions for recipes and meal planning, reducing the need for physical cookbooks and papers.

Remember, the key to effective dining room storage is to find a balance between functionality and aesthetics, keeping your space organized while maintaining a pleasant and inviting atmosphere.

Budget-Friendly Home Decor: 5 DIY Projects to Try

When it comes to home decor, it's easy to get caught up in the idea that everything has to be expensive. But with a little creativity and a few basic supplies, you can transform your space without breaking the bank. Here are five DIY projects to try that are both budget-friendly and stylish. 1. Painted Terra Cotta Pots Terra cotta pots are a popular choice for gardeners due to their affordability and durability. They are versatile and can be used for various plants, from small succulents to large shrubs. However, they can sometimes appear dull and uninteresting on their own. If you want to add some personality to your garden, consider painting them with bright colors and patterns. You can create your own unique designs or get inspiration from nature, such as painting flowers or leaves on the pots. Not only will they add a pop of color to your outdoor space, but they will also make your plants stand out and create a visually stunning display. Additionally, painting your terra cotta pots can be a fun and creative activity for both children and adults alike, and it allows you to personalize your garden even further. 2. Fabric-Covered Bulletin Board Bulletin boards can be plain, but covering them with your favorite fabric can add a personal touch. This will make it more visually appealing and provide a soft surface perfect for pinning notes, reminders, and other important items. You could also use patterned paper, paint, or decals to give your bulletin board a unique look. Adding a border or frame can also add extra flair. By personalizing your bulletin board, you'll be more likely to use it regularly and stay organized. 3. Rustic Wine Rack Creating a wine rack can be an affordable and fulfilling project that adds rustic charm to your home. Not only can you unleash your creativity by experimenting with different designs and finishes, but you'll also have the satisfaction of making something with your own hands. Additionally, a handmade wine rack can create a warm and cozy atmosphere and be a great conversation starter when guests come over. So next time you need a wine rack, consider making your own unique piece and enjoy the process and final result. 4. DIY Wall Art Adding more context to your wall art can make a positive impact on your living space. You can create your own canvas using paint and other mixed media pieces to add a personal touch to your wall space. Not only will it reflect your personal style, but also it can make your living space feel more inviting and expressive. Moreover, wall art can be used to create a focal point in any room, adding further depth and dimension to your decor. It is a great way to bring color and visual interest to your walls, and can be a cost-effective way to decorate your living space. 5. Repurposed Picture Frames Picture frames can be used for a variety of purposes beyond simply displaying photos. For example, you can paint them to match your decor and repurpose them as trays, which can be used to serve refreshments at dinner parties, or jewelry organizers, which can keep your necklaces and bracelets neatly organized. Additionally, picture frames can be repurposed as chalkboards, allowing you to create your own custom message boards for your home or office. With so many possibilities, it's easy to give old frames new life and transform them into versatile and functional decor pieces. ”Transform your space with these 5 budget-friendly DIY projects for home decor.” With these five budget-friendly DIY projects, you can transform your home without spending a lot of money.

The best part is that you can choose to make money doing it or just enjoy the creative process. The repurposed furniture niche is growing by the day. A simple Google search will turn up hundreds of websites that will sell you the materials you need to get started.

High-gloss finishes

Choosing a high-gloss finish for cabinetry is a great way to bring a contemporary look to your home. This kind of finish is available in a variety of different colors and styles. They can make a small kitchen look much larger.

A high gloss finish also makes it easier to clean. This is because it allows light to reflect and create an illusion of open space. However, you should be aware that high gloss can show imperfections more clearly than other finishes.

To maintain a high gloss finish, you should use a mild dishwashing soap and a non-abrasive microfibre cloth to clean the surface. If you notice stubborn stains, use warm water and a soft sponge to wipe away the dirt.

In order to prevent water damage, you should choose high gloss cabinets that are made of solid acrylic. Acrylic kitchen cabinet doors are scratch-resistant and can’t twist or peel.

All-black finishes

Having all-black cabinetry has never been more popular, and there are a ton of reasons for it. Black is not only a striking color, it can also add a sense of sophistication to any kitchen. With the right colors and finishes, you can create a bold statement wall or pair it with white cabinets to create a unified look. It’s also a good idea to have light colored flooring to contrast with your black cabinets.

Black cabinets also pair well with other black elements. You can also mix them with other colors to add some visual variety. The right hardware can complement your black cabinetry. You can also try using a woven rattan pendant light to add a little bit of character. Black seating, such as bar stools, can also be a great way to tie your all-black kitchen together.

Open cabinets with small cubbies

Adding open cabinets with small cubbies to your home can improve your space’s appearance. This can help you organize your kitchen and avoid clutter.

A cubby-like look is best achieved with cabinets that are free from plywood on the inside. In fact, if you can’t afford plywood, you can simply use vertical pieces of wood to achieve the look.

A tall storage cubby is useful if you have uniformly shaped objects to store. They are also easy to access and add a sense of order to your kitchen.

Cubbies can also be made from a variety of materials. For instance, you can make cubbies out of a variety of woods, including pine and laminated pine. You can also paint your cubbies to match your existing cabinetry or use stain.

Frequently Asked Questions

Should I leave my home during the kitchen remodeling?

If you love to eat takeout, you don’t have to leave. However, if your children or pets are young or have special needs, you may want to consider living at a family member’s home or staying with a friend during renovations. This way, you won’t have to worry about them being in the way or getting hurt. Additionally, you will have a better chance of keeping your sanity by not having to deal with construction noise and dust every day. When you’re ready to move, ask your contractor for a written estimate. This will allow you to plan your move around their schedule.

Begin by estimating the cost for materials required to remodel. These materials include countertops.

Add the total cost of all materials and labor to complete your project. Divide that number by the square footage of your kitchen. This calculates the cost per square inch.

Subtract any savings you anticipate from doing some work yourself or buying materials at a discount.

To cover unanticipated costs, include a contingency amount of 10-20%.

These are estimates only. To get a more accurate idea of your kitchen to remodel budget, consult a professional contractor.

These guidelines will help to create a budget plan for your kitchen renovation. Your actual costs can vary depending upon the materials you select, the scope of the project, and other factors.

How to design the kitchen layout

There’s no perfect kitchen layout, but specific layouts work better for specific spaces. Here are some tips on how to design a kitchen layout that will work best for your space:

Start with the essentials. The first step in determining what you have in your kitchen is to decide what can be sacrificed. For example, you may not need a large stove or oven if you don’t cook much.

Take into account the traffic flow. The second step is to consider how you and your family use the kitchen and how traffic flows through the space. You’ll want to ensure enough room to move around freely without bumping into each other.

Maximize storage. The third step involves maximising storage space in your kitchen. This applies to both cookware and food storage. It’s important that everything is organized and accessible easily.

Integrate your style. Incorporating your style into your kitchen layout is the fourth step. This covers everything from the cabinets and countertops, to the flooring and appliances. Select materials and finishes that best reflect your taste.

Get in touch with a professional. A professional kitchen designer is the fifth and final step. They can help you create a layout that meets all of your needs and works well within your space
