[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am intriqued by this thread.
We just moved into our new house and the previous owners have a space at the end of the counter ( from a house with a similar floor plan, it looks like they opted not to do a kitchen desk so it's just open space between the counter and the pantry door). They installed floating shelves (in white the same color as the cabinets.

We are wondering how we could use these shelves and what do put on the floor underneath. We eventually may redo the cabinets, but they are functional so not a priority in the next few years. It just looks awkward right now.  It was staged with a plant on one shelf and a water dispenser underneath.[/quote]
Remove the shelves, hang a large scale painting there and beneath put a table/desk/piece of furniture. Or, if it works out (I can’t quite picture the dimensions of the space) a small place to sit. My grandparents lived in a 1860s farmhouse and since it didn’t have a basement, the television was in the kitchen, as was a little mid century loveseat. I wouldn’t mind a comfortable place to sit when I’m waiting for something to finish a stage of cooking.[/quote]
