Our sink ...Dear Maggie, aka "Anonymous,"<br /><br />Our sink is 78 inches wide and 22 inches deep with a 6 inch apron. Normal, modern counters are 25 inch deep so we had the cabinets built to accommodate a modern 25 inch deep dishwasher and our 1923's sink. This left a 3 inch space behind the backsplash of the sink. I filled in the space with trim boards to make it looked finished. If you send me your e-mail address, I'll send you some close up photos, email me at jeff at sharonlovejoy period com.<br /><br />Because of the 6 inch apron, we couldn't use a conventional dishwasher so we turned to the Fisher Paykel dish drawers and instead of stacking them, as they are intended, we split them up on each side of the sink. People think they are bins, like in old kitchens. When I pull out a drawer, people are shocked we have dishwashers.<br /><br />The nice thing about them is that Sharon and I use one draw a day. When we have a dinner party, we can wash the silver in one drawer and the stainless in another, fragile dishes on one side and heavier soiled dishes on the other.<br /><br />I'll be glad to answer any other questions you might have.<br /><br />Husband Jeff<br /><br />p.s. Note that we had the under counter cabinets made without a kick plate to tie in with our 1930's home.<br /><br />Sharon Lovejoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04321160956925191137noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8434499602695302521.post-31231490552850604132015-01-02T18:32:36.106-08:002015-01-02T18:32:36.106-08:00Hi Sharon,

I've looked all over for original historic kitchens and you have some ideas I've never seen before. We are trying to restore a 1917 kitchen to original. If we could get the Fisher dishwashers to fit under our sink it could totally help us. Could you tell me how wide your sink is? <br />Thank you!!<br />MaggieAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8434499602695302521.post-76968914040526979782014-10-29T11:56:31.478-07:002014-10-29T11:56:31.478-07:00Hi Mary,

No matter what is going on our family gathers around this table and/or the long dining room table. Sometimes I wonder why we have other rooms? This Old House Magazine featured our do-over last spring 2014, but they removed my copper pots, the squirrel nutcracker, many books, etc. Didn't feel like my kitchen! <br /><br />We are having the long farm sink refinished next week and we'll get a ten year guarantee this time.<br /><br />Thanks for stopping by. How did you find me?<br /><br />SharonSharon Lovejoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04321160956925191137noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8434499602695302521.post-49229229168013389602014-10-29T09:14:29.046-07:002014-10-29T09:14:29.046-07:00I am absolutely, positively, head over heels in lo...I am absolutely, positively, head over heels in love with this kitchen!

Serendipity brought me here! Judging for your cabinet sizes in the before pictures, the dimensions of your kitchen are exactly the same as ours. This is such a help!
