Posted by admin on October 26, 2016 at 4:08 pm. Filed under: General

Beautiful oak kitchens come in all shapes, sizes, and colours! White kitchens, however, are a timeless classic that feature in design trends year on year, each with a new twist. Whether you are dreaming of an all-white kitchen with white subway tiling, or you would like to adopt the latest penchant for mixed-metal hardware, painted oak base cabinets and wall cabinets are a great place to start.

For kitchen design inspiration, explore the stunning examples of white painted oak kitchens in this blog – all of which have been designed with our own solid wood cabinets:

Find painted oak kitchens at our beautiful kitchen showrooms.

At Solid Wood Kitchen Cabinets, we pride ourselves on selling the highest-quality kitchen components made from 100% timber, including solid oak kitchen cabinets and oak cabinet doors.

All oak products are made entirely from European timber that is sustainably sourced and manufactured with optimum care and precision. Since June this year, the British pound has fallen by around 15% against the euro and – for the past four months – we have maintained our pricing for oak products despite these changes.

At this point in time – in order to continue to provide these items without compromising quality or service – our prices will need to increase. This change is unfortunate but inevitable, and will affect oak cabinet carcasses, oak cabinet doors and combined carcass and door units. The price increase will be approximately 15% and will go into effect on Tuesday 1st November 2016. Please place your order before this date to take advantage of our current prices.

Of course, should the pound recover, we will be delighted to lower our prices again, and will continue to keep our customers informed of any such changes. If you have any questions about these changes, or would like to place your order, please get in touch on 0345 22 22 990 (alternatively, you may wish to send an email to ).

The baking frenzy prevails as The Great British Bake Off continues to captivate audiences this October, with magnificent show-stoppers and the continuing battle to be crowned Star Baker. For those as enthralled as we are, we have the perfect kitchen accessory. Our ‘Gadget of the Month’ is the latest baking essential for solid oak kitchens.

Combining accurate measurement with an incredibly useful conversion chart, these handy kitchen weighing scales come courtesy of none other than the blue-eyed baking baron himself. These scales are part of Paul Hollywood’s brand new collection of kitchen kit, launched in summer 2016, transforming practical cooking equipment into stylish, must-have gadgetry.

These sought-after digital kitchen scales are made with stain-and-odour-resistant tempered glass, and feature a host of useful information. Along the left-hand side, the scales can be used as a ruler to help you make baked creations with utmost precision. Meanwhile, the Temperature guide converts common cooking temperatures from Celsius to Fahrenheit, and the others sections provide useful conversions from fluid ounces and millilitres to cups, inches to centimetres, spoons to millilitres and millilitres to pints.

Hollywood’s electronic scales come with an easy-to-read LCD display, and can switch between grams, pounds, ounces and even millilitres at the touch of a button. What’s more, you can reset the scales to zero so that you can measure and add new ingredients to the same mixing bowl.

These Paul Hollywood digital scales cost just £19.99 and can be purchased from a number of high-street retailers.
