It is rare, if not non-existent when I see a renovation that I don't find things that I would do a bit differently, but I love every bit of this renovation. It has elements of English, Scandinavian and Japanese aesthetics but brought together in a sense of integrity.
This is my dream kitchen! Green cabinets, butcher block countertops, hidden fridge, open shelves, the farmhouse sink. It checks off nearly every mark of the list I had in mind for my kitchen. Ironically, I had to make due with using bead board with an existing kitchen set, it helps but truly this kitchen is my goals lol. Truly inspiring, might get me more interested in carpentry.
Mine, too! Only thing I would change is having the cutting board a pull-out under the counter. I am old enough to remember kitchens used to have them. But at 5'7" I also appreciate having one higher than the standard counter top. Also like the compost bin, but would want lids to keep out the fruit flies. Better yet, a chute to outside bin. Wonder if anyone invented that?😂 Closest thing I saw was a tiny house homeowner opening kitchen window to drop scraps into outdoor bin on legs.
Sander did an excellent job! I can't believe that's his first kitchen renovation and in making cabinetry. Wow...the thoughtful and careful attention to details and smart, creative solutions for the smaller space and storage are very impressive. I love the colors and the copper, plants, pottery, farmhouse sink...well...I love it all! Well done, Sander!👍 Thank you, Summer.❤
I am not typically a " green" fan but this kitchen is stunning and I love the simplicity of the open cabinets, they look modern but very cozy. Beautiful job!
You guys did a wonderful job with that kitchen! I'm a retired electrician that probably worked on over 200 kitchens ranging from simple to ultra high end. This is the best use of space I've ever seen. And stunningly beautiful!
Has a Dutch name, comes into a standard size Dutch kitchen and calls it really, really small and stresses the need to use every part of it to be able to cook in there. Believe me honey, your ancestors were dreaming of a kitchen this big! And yes, it's wonderful to cook in there. And you even have place to sit and eat in there! It's a rather spacious kitchen :) That said, it's absolutely lovely. The green adds to the cottage feel. The warm wood, the copper/gold accents all give it a luxury cozy feeling. Well done. When the fridge and freezer doors look like the cabinets, it all comes together and gives a calmer look. Otherwise it sticks out like a soar thumb.
I absolutely love the shade of green you have chosen, it’s beautiful to look at & also has an old world charm. You have given me ideas for my kitchen that badly needs updating.
Awesome kitchen, great design and build.. and I can only imagine the money saved by building and installation . I appreciate the thought of the tile layout on backsplash being a tile Mason. Thanks for inviting us along.
Sander, thank you for sharing one of your passions and talents. Amazing. You both have 'nailed' the teamwork journey. Hopefully you both will enjoy many, many healthy and happy years together. Thank you Summer for sharing all your talents, time and energy that you put into this channel.
I love every detailed design you implemented in your kitchen. MY FAVORITE detail has to be the hidden compost, under the cutting board with a camouflage pull out drawer...GENIUS!!! If I ever build my own house, that WILL be a design steal from your amazing creations. Thank you for sharing!!!
çok güzel olmuş, bu dünyada bir evi el emeği ile inşa etmek kadar soylu ve sanatsal bir güzellik var mı acaba ? Karı koca birlikte bir evi inşa edince 'gerçek' bir aile oluyorlar... şirin evinizde mutlu günlerde oturun.
This is such gorgeous work and full of so much charisma and personality. So many renovations I see are the antithesis of this - boring, empty and most importantly lacking any sense of comfort and home. I look at this kitchen and I see a place that someone can truly live and be happy in. I can’t stress how much I love this work. Excellent job!
Beautiful! One tip: if you are cooking regularly on that stove, get rid of the copper utensils behind it. Back in the 80’s copper was in and so i had some hanging in my kitchen be side the stove very similar to what you have behind it. Unless you want to be constantly washing them, any grease in the air sticks like crazy to them creating a powerful grimy dust magnet. My porcelain decorative items never collected the grime my copper stuff did. Likely some chemical electro weird thing. Don’t know. I just wasn’t up to washing and polishing it all weekly…yes weekly. Mind you this was just when I got a microwave and didn’t use it much so the stovetop was used very frequently. If it’s an Air BnB or guest cottage just remember to check them 😉 Watch your channel pretty regularly and this year made some pollinator wildflower box gardens to hide a chain link fence. Here’s a giggle for you…. I bought and planted milkweed seeds in amongst for the monarch butterflies knowing I won’t get plants until 2024. Afterwards I noticed that the dang things grow wild EVERYWHERE in the ditches here 🤣🤣🤣 . Question: do you know of a unique winter friendly catmint that is different than the common blue kind which for me grows and spreads like a hot damn. The are always humming with loads bees and I want more but maybe a different color, size …. Thanks for documenting this transformation. Pretty cool!
Your meticulous attention to detail is commendable! I bet you impressed the heck out of your cabinet-making neighbors. My engineer son would approve 😊.
Thank you for this additional information on the kitchen build. It was very interesting and again highlighted Sander's attention to detail while designing the overall space as well as the individual pieces. So nice.
Nice work! I really like the compost bins and side drawer for them at 16:37. When cutting produce, etc., make sure to use the back side of the knife and not the cutting side to scrape the scraps into the bins so that you don't dull your knife edge. The upper cabinets look nice, but without doors the contents will collect more dust and may get splattered by oils, etc. You also can't hide anything, so everything has to appear tidy all the time. However, those are all personal choices.
I love Christmas.!Traditional red and green mostly.Your red countertop and green cabinets make me think of Christmas! Its like perpetual Christmas in your kitchen. Love it!!!!!
😮❤ Love, love, love the final results. Thanks for sharing! You are all three so smartly creative. Can you share links or info of a few highlights, such as paint colors, lazy susan, green dishes, green pots & pans. These colors are beautiful and have influenced me to refresh my tiny cape cod kitchen in Ohio.
Absolutely beautiful! Wondering if you can share the stain and finish that you use for the countertops and as well the brand and color of the green that you used for painting the cabinets? I absolutely love those colors together and would love to use the same for my kitchen if possible.
I love everything about this kitchen 🥰 I've been getting my place ready for a for sale sign, I plan to have an Amish shed built to spec for home conversion. I'm saving this video to copycat, it is just so lovely, not to mention efficient. The color is even my favorite 😊
With the price of cabinets these days I would defiantly build my own. You did a great job! People also under value the availability to retro fit old cabinets when remodeling. A few years back we bought RTA cabinets from Conestoga Cabinets at the time it was the right choice for us, but while on their website I learned if I had an old cabinet system and wanted to keep my boxes and paint them (I used what Sherwin Williams suggested at the time for cabinet paint) I could have Conestoga custom make new draws and doors get the slow close hardware with them and have them color match and professionally painted by Conestoga in the Sherwin Williams paint for a perfect color match. Our project was a cabin in the woods project and we were painting 70 year old existing cabinets and adding RTA to the kitchen this how I utilized the Sherwin Willams paint in our project.
Good job. We just built a new home and a custom kitchen. Now, ours is a huge kitchen so I am not going to do comparisons, but the only criticism I might add is there is too much on counter tops….where it is such a small kitchen it might be better to maximize the tops with less on them. Just an idea.
I just came across your channel and was immediately drawn in by your name. I grew up in the Finger Lakes region, so I just had to check it out! And your craftmanship in this kitchen is absolutely fantastic! Well done! Looking forward to checking out more of your videos! Blessings to you all!
We now have a Meadow House Design & Layout downloadable document, which you can find here: bit.ly/3vRQszE
Hi Flock crew! We are very interested in recreating the custom hood vent. Is all the info for that included in the purchasable packet?

You know if Sander made it, it's going to be beautiful and it's going to last a very long time!❤😊
Sander must be so proud of his craftsmanship. Everything about the Meadow House is just darling.

Agreed - I don't usually like green but that color with the cherry counter is gorgeous.

Really beautiful. Love the colors. That green is gorgeous. Very good job. 🎉
Between Sanders’s know-how and Summer’s eye for design, it’s stunning. Nice job!
R they couple?
I love the green. It's all so pretty. I think a Dutch door on the back would be stunning as well. ❤
Przepiękna kuchnia ,cudny wystój i kolory.Gratulacje.
I absolutely love the shade of green you have chosen, it’s beautiful to look at & also has an old world charm. You have given me ideas for my kitchen that badly needs updating.
The corner cabinet revolving around without the post is so cool. The kitchen looks lovely.
I think it's the best solution for a corner cabinet I've ever seen and where was he when I was redoing my kitchen last year 😆
Wow what a beautifully designed and executed kitchen!! I truly love all of the details and colours. Sander you could be a kitchen designer!
Awesome kitchen, great design and build.. and I can only imagine the money saved by building and installation .
I appreciate the thought of the tile layout on backsplash being a tile Mason.
Thanks for inviting us along.
This man is a keeper! You make a great team
Sander is an absolute gem.
Sander, thank you for sharing one of your passions and talents. Amazing. You both have 'nailed' the teamwork journey. Hopefully you both will enjoy many, many healthy and happy years together. Thank you Summer for sharing all your talents, time and energy that you put into this channel.
You did an amazing job! Not just the kitchen, but the rest of your sweet little home.
Such attention to detail, Sander! What a craftsman!
I love every detailed design you implemented in your kitchen. MY FAVORITE detail has to be the hidden compost, under the cutting board with a camouflage pull out drawer...GENIUS!!! If I ever build my own house, that WILL be a design steal from your amazing creations. Thank you for sharing!!!
Glad you love it. A Sander van Dijk original. He'll be pleased you liked the concept so much.

Sander, a job very well done! You are very meticulous in your design and your workmanship is at masterclass level. So very proud of you.
Beautiful!!! ❤
The green is so easy on the eyes.
To keep your knives sharp longer, use the back side (not cutting side) of your knife to scrape your cuttings into the bin...
Dream kitchen, cozy, efficient and love the light coming in with green. Great job! Love how you made the fridge look like it’s a built in pantry❤
What a lovely kitchen!!
Wonderful, beautiful, job!!! Bravo!!!❤
OBSESSED with this kitchen !! what a dream.
Beautiful and thoughtful customization!😍
Love the hidden fridge! Kitchen turned out awesome.
Very creative. You guys, mainly Sander did wonderful job.
Love the hidden fridge and green color!
Just awesome ❤. These guys are two perfectionists for sure.
This is the most perfect kitchen I have ever seen. It screams home. Absolutely beautiful. Genius. Subscribing!
Beautiful work 🎊
I love color, detail, and texture so I really enjoyed seeing what you have done.
I smiled non-stop thru this whole video! You two are a great team! Dream kitchen for sure‼️❣️❤️

I feel you. I bought Joe Pye Weed, and then noticed it grew in all the drainage ditches😂
That kitchen is perfection.
❤🎉 One of the most beautiful kitchens I have ever seen. I love every inch of you did incredible be very proud. This is so stunning
Love, love, love, beautiful home
Your kitchen came out so beautifully - well done, Sanders. And the cutting station is a brilliant design!
sander is a super man. He is so talented and perfectionist 😊 he knows how to do everything 😮
So well thought out and planned to perfection. It's a work of art. I LOVE the hidden side drawer for the compost cuttings. Very clever.
Beautiful well done ❤
Love your green with the copper and terra cotta, it’s a gorgeous kitchen.
So nice to all the attention to detail. Very rare anymore. Just LOVELY ❤
Your kitchen is so lovely and quaint.
This is adorable. I love it! Love the color as well. It's so warm, homey and inviting
Wow! Very impressed with the attention to detail. The result is excellent!
Your meticulous attention to detail is commendable! I bet you impressed the heck out of your cabinet-making neighbors. My engineer son would approve 😊.
It's all ADORABLE!
I love your cozy kitchen. Dream it and just build it . Just create it. It's so pretty! WOW
Thank you for this additional information on the kitchen build. It was very interesting and again highlighted Sander's attention to detail while designing the overall space as well as the individual pieces. So nice.
Great attention to details!
I'd love to see a materials list specifically the paint colors.

I love the chopping/compost setup! So many thoughtful details.
So well designed and made! Your Meadow House is wonderful! 😍

BEAUTIFUL JOB 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
No matter the ‘slip ups’, Sanders did a fantastic job. Made with love at Flock.
Looks beautiful ❤
So very nice ! Well done 👏
Impressive! Definitely a professional not a DIY guy 🥰
Absolutely beautiful! Wonderfully done!
😮❤ Love, love, love the final results. Thanks for sharing! You are all three so smartly creative. Can you share links or info of a few highlights, such as paint colors, lazy susan, green dishes, green pots & pans. These colors are beautiful and have influenced me to refresh my tiny cape cod kitchen in Ohio.
We'll be doing separate videos on the 'stuff' for folks because a lot of folks are asking.
Yes, please share paint colors and where products were purchased. Thanks a million. @@FlockFingerLakes
So inspiring! Beautiful work
Beautiful job!
Beautifully designed kitchen. And aesthetically very pleasing as well.
Looks lovely.
Absolutely beautiful! Wondering if you can share the stain and finish that you use for the countertops and as well the brand and color of the green that you used for painting the cabinets? I absolutely love those colors together and would love to use the same for my kitchen if possible.
Darling Lil kitchen! ❤❤❤
I love everything about this kitchen 🥰 I've been getting my place ready for a for sale sign, I plan to have an Amish shed built to spec for home conversion. I'm saving this video to copycat, it is just so lovely, not to mention efficient. The color is even my favorite 😊

Gorgeous!!!
So beautiful!!! Can't wait to see the progress on the common house as well :)
Absolutely heavenly.
Such an eye for the details so that everything is functional and beautiful!
A real GEM! 💚
So beautiful!!! Thanks for sharing!

It looks beautiful. You did a great job. It really shows your talent for details.
Congratulations on a great job! Well done!!
Love the green. Gee, looks a lot like the green I used for accent in my kitchen. 🥰
Amazing skills! Prep station is genius. Plz do a video of the next auction or flea market shopping.
Green is a great pick have always loved it for everything
Love it! The only thing I like better on the before was the wood exterior door! It would’ve looked great with your countertops!
You put your sink in on my birthday ❤
