Hey, gang! It’s Hailey. A big part of camp life is helping out with chores, and campers at Camp St. Bernard are expected to take part in cooking meals and cleaning up afterward. That’s why it’s so important that the kitchen be functional and accessible. You don’t want a load of little campers all tripping over one another. So we were asked to take a look at the existing kitchen and see what we could do to make it flow better and give the kids plenty of room to work.
Wow – this kitchen is kind of funky actually. I like the sherbet colored cabinets and countertops. But I’m not digging them so much with the parquet flooring or the green table – the different shades are clashing. All the greens in this kitchen are saying STOP! Elwin and I agree that the layout could be more effective, and that the kids need more workspace. The bamboo shelves might offer up a taste of the wild, but I don’t think they’re necessarily the best use of space in a working kitchen. And one sink to wash all the dishes and prepare the meals for a whole camp? I have a thirst for a better solution! Also, the placement of the fridge and stove is kind of awkward – you have to walk all the way around the L-shaped island to access them. That is not so hot – or even cool.
Okay, so here’s what we came up with and I think it’s pretty yummy (if I do say so myself!). First of all we pulled up that parquet floor to expose the rustic Weathered Barn Flooring. We decided to go with autumnal shades for our cabinetry to create a warm, homey feeling (did you know the color red stimulates the appetite?) We added a large island with lots of storage underneath in the centre of the space where the kids can gather to cook up something fabulous for their bunkmates. Putting the stove, fridge and (double) sinks on the same wall made a much more effective work area. Too many cooks can spoil the broth – which is why we created yet another work station out of the way of the main space by lining up some country wood tables against the wall in the corner. Now we can have one group of campers washing and drying dishes at the back wall while another group prepares the main course at the centre island and yet another group can be chopping vegetables or assembling pies in the corner. Finally, we incorporated even more storage with a couple of Hidden Bounty Barrel Dressers in the corner.
So what do you think, ‘Kinz fans? Are we cooking, or what?
…..LOL….. They said that one sink to clear out the dishes, but then they added only one more!! LOL
the second one is great keep it up hailey and elwin ☺E_I_P☻
Wow! They did a really good job decorating the kitchen! It looks really, really nice! :D
seriosly webkinz people a webkinz commercial
i laughed so hard when the red headed chic said “decorating my pets room” the way she said it was so funny. but funny bad. but at least we get to see future pets. but all in all, keep to the internet ganz
The only problem I had with the first kitchen is that it is too close to the stove and the counters should have been a different color. Other than that it looked o.k.
i was watching that movie to awsome commical webkinz by the way
COOL ROOM!!! oH DOES ANYBODY KNOW THE RECIPE FOR MOUNT SNOCOCO????
FYI….I NEED THE RECIPE REALLY REALLY URGENTLY!!!
its coconut, cornflakes and chocolate bar
I say they both look pretty unorganized and random but hey that’s just one person’s opinion.
I like it!! Mutant pancake kitchen!!
LOL!
For once I REALLY like the new one! Wow!
:lol:

Ok, so I was watching the Spongebob Squarpants Movie, and GUESS WHAT? THE WEBKINZ COMMERCIAL CAME ON!!!!! SO HAPPY ITS ON TV YET SO SCARED BECAUSE THEY ARE SCARY KIDS!
Poop i like that movie i bet i missed it
They’re both so-so but the second one is better. I hope I see the webkinz commercial. :)
~(*)sparklegirlLT(*)
Oh wow, the commercial came on, and it was so much louder than what I was watching. I practically fell off the couch, thats how suprised I was. My cousin still hasn’t seen it, but she doesn’t watch as much TV
I don’t live in the states, so I won’t see the commercial. And I didn’t know that spongebob has his own movie now. COOL!!! :mrgreen: I prefer the 2nd one better, but I would organize it differently
you what is so cool i just sold a little bed that i have 2 of and i got 12,000 yes twelve thousand dollars for it so now i have over 82 thousand dollars for real wow i’m rich i don’t have this 8,200 i have this 82,000 wowzers and i want to see the webkinz comercial
the makeover is okay i agree that they are both pretty unorganized. i haven’t seen the webkinz commercial on tv yet P.S i love the sponge bob movie :)
-♫♥*midnight moon*♫♥
Okay, moving away from Spongebob, I think they’re both mediocre. What’s with the barrels? And the fridge is extremely small and the stove is, too. And I think they should have purchased all the same style small appliances, like no purple rock star sandwich makers with steel ones, no jungle blenders with steel ones, you know. Jumbled up too much for me.
I agree Ghost Ninja.
~(*)sparklegirlLT(*)
I agree too, Ghost Ninga.
~ShinyRocks~
The barrels…kinda pirate-ty don’t you think? I would like the second room more if Hailey and Elwin decided on a green colour scheme or a blue one or whatever!?!
i agree about the rock star sandwich maker.

I AM FREAKED OUT NOW 2! WEBKINZ’s FIRST COMMERCIAL! WEBKINZ PEOPLE, WHY DIDN’T U TELL US!
Um, actually, a month or two ago they DID show us it. You must not have seen it. Also, I have been thinking about the commercial. I LOVE it, but I DONT like how one girl turns so UNNATURALLY and says, “Decorating…My pets room!” and the girl that looks like shes made of wax, and the kids screechy voices, but I still like it.I would have replied sooner but I was taking my shower. Please reply!
I love how Ganz made a real commercial, but I agree that the kids are weird.
~(*)sparklegirlLT(*)
I remember seeing it here.
~(*)sparklegirlLT(*)
They look weird because of the lighting. And stop my cousin was in that commercial! :(
WHO WAS IT?
I don’t want to be mean, I’m just saying that Ganz could have put the commercial together better. There should have been better lighting and they should have made the kids do different actions, and not make their voices strange.
~(*)sparklegirlLT(*)
The kids were also cute. It was just the the way Ganz made them do things that was weird.
~(*)sparklegirlLT(*)
Yeah, I agree. Plus I saw the webkinz commercial too today. My sister and I had been waiting to see it . When it came on I was like “NICOLE, IT’S THE WEBKINZ COMMERCIAL!”
Oh. Thanks 4 telling me, Emily! Want 2 b friends? I am leisha5
i haven`t seen the webkinz commercial. i hope i do.i only have 49 channels.
OMG i saw that too! im soooooo glad its on tv!
dudes i strongly dislike (i not know if i allowed to say other word similar to strongly dislike) the webkinz commercial tick to the internet. pleaze!
that is not nice to say i think that the kids look nice .respect the way thay look how would you feel if someone sead you looker scary?
I know, but ONE girl looked like she was made of wax. She was pretty and nice looking, but she looked like she was made out of wax. The littler kids were cute, but just a little too squeaky. The girl who turns saying, “DECORATING…MY PETS ROOM!” is scaryish. She turns too fast, but she is nice, so yeah, the kids are REALLY GOOD, but a little weirdish in the COmmercial. Sometimes I look scary, like when I wake up in the morning! My hair looks like it was attacked by an animal!Still, I saw it on TV once, and I am happy!
Where was the movie!? ~*+lynxlover+*
Whoa…hold your horses…did I miss something here? What commercial? I didn’t see a webkinz commercial. What’s it like?
Hey I saw the commercial just now on T.V also! Cool! Northwestern type in ” Webkinz commercial” in the news blog you will see it. :) ~*+lynxlover
Well, if you want to see it, type in the search box Commercial, TV or webkinz commercial. One part stuck in my head, and I can’t remember any thing else except these parts: Kids saying SOMETHING like Food! Toys! Prizes!, a girl says , “Decorating…(Turns weirdly) My pets room!” and at the end it SINGS, “The best thing….Is everything. WEBKINZ!”
I didn’t mean it offensively. They are really cute, nice kids, and I mean it. Well, i think they are nice. My brother typed that part in saying they were creepy. We shared the comment, so HE is the one that thinks that. I REALLY think thy are cute and nice. Although the girl turns abruptly, its NOT her fault, so yeah, I am OK with her. She makes me think of myself a little when I was younger!Well, the SO CALLED wax girl has nice shiny skin! Plus the lighting was weird…..But she is VERY VERY pretty! So I like her too!And sqeauky kids voices are normal for younger kids. And the sqeakyness is what makes them cuter than normal!
Hi. My brother was the one who kept saying they look weird, cause we both comment as Emily OR I AM FREAKING OUT NOW. 2nd one is his, I am Emily. I LOVE the kids in the commercial! And someone copied me! I never wrote they had screechy voices or that the girl is wax!!I would NEVER say that about someone! I LOVE all those kids in the commercial (Little kids are SOOO cute in the Commercial!) And Googlesgal, your COUSIN was in it? Who is she/he? All the kids did an EXELLENT job, so I am sure your couison is VERY happy and proud! WHO copied me and why?I never would say that about an animal or person! I LOVE the commercial!
Yay! :mrgreen:
