Got an awkwardly shaped kitchen? Ask us to make you a 3D layout. It makes it so much easier to wrap your mind around!
This kitchen is for a client in the Freestate, her house is old school with some spaces that were tricky to design. Thanks to our new 3D layout option the Design Team, together with the client, have come up with a layout that lends itself to flow between the house and the heart of her home, the kitchen.

Wood is natural, its soft, its timeless, its textured. It's beautiful. But you all know that, what you might not know is that...
All Milestone Kitchens wood is sourced from nearby sawmills and FSC certified forests.
What does it mean to be FSC certified? FSC stands for Forest Stewardship Council. An FSC certification ensures that products come from responsibly managed forests that provide environmental, social and economic benefits.
Our Design Team put so much thought into the perfect combinations of colour and detail for each front of showroom kitchen so that they showcase a timeless and unique free-standing Milestone Kitchen.
We have now started designing new kitchens for the front of our Showroom (wow we're excited!).
BUT before we replace them we thought we would give you, the public, the opportunity to purchase these one-of-a kind Milestone Kitchens.

Keeping a freestanding kitchen hygienic and clean is UNBELIEVABLY easy.
In a freestanding kitchen - there are no spaces for rats, cockroaches or any other creatures to hide away behind, underneath or in-between your units.
The French Flair 7 Piece Starter Set Special from our Showroom is SOLD to a client in Stutterheim! The doggos love it 😁.

Offices. Small spaces. Kids rooms. Guest rooms. Bedrooms. I can't really think of a place the Milestone Kitchens Office in a Cupboard or KINK (Kantoor in 'n Kas) doesn't work? Maybe the bathroom?
With this unit you can close your office neatly and stylishly so that it is out of sight out of mind until you need it again.
With the covid-19 virus still rife, and all of our newfound understanding about how easy it is do contract a virus... we think it's SO COOL that with Milestone Kitchens freestanding units you can have an empty room in the morning and a full kitchen in the afternoon. No tradesmen in and out of your house for weeks fitting your kitchen.
This is a Swedish Style Milestone Kitchen in KZN. You might see similar looking pictures in the future, or have seen similar looking pictures before - this kitchen is constantly being rearranged. #samesamebutdifferent. Ah, the beauty of freestanding kitchens.
We're very excited to launch our new project, Milestone Smalls - all smalls are made out of offcuts from our larger kitchen units to reduce waste. More about this later! In the mean time, as a little teaser, a taste if you will... We've decided to give away 3 Milestone Smalls to one lucky like-r, follower and tagger.
Prize includes:
Cutlery Holder - R800.
Round bread board - R480.
Tray - R1 150.
Delivery anywhere in South Africa.

Meet Bhekisile ❤️
Bhekisile is the head of our painting team. She was born and raised in Mpolweni village, 1.5 kms down the road from Milestone Factory. She has been a part of the Milestone family for 20 years.
Bhekisile is the head of our painting team. Think of a paint technique you like - Bhe and her team can do it!
We often hear her laugh resonate through the factory. We are proud to add that her son has completed a degree - the first of our Mpolweni staff's children to get one. They are building a brand new, big house together.
A great job by Dennis and his team.

Lindani and some of the Milestone Kitchens staff helped pick up 13 dogs from Mpolweni village last week Wednesday with the SPCA.
The dogs were all sterilised by SPCA Pietermaritzburg, some of them were also treated for mange and given rabies vaccines. They were returned to their owners earlier this week, along with a bag of dog food each.
THANK YOU SO MUCH TO EVERYONE WHO DONATED!
It was a successful venture and we would really like to do it again. There are a lot more families who need help with their dogs. If you would like to contribute towards helping the lives of more dogs and their owners, please click the following link: https://www.backabuddy.co.za/mpolweni-dog-project.
A big thanks to Pietermaritzburg SPCA, and to Lindani for educating and looking out for his neighbours and their pets.
For those bargain hunters out there - we always have some extra special deals, often on extra special pieces, available in our showroom at 52, 6th street in Parkhurst, Randburg, Johannesburg.
Pop in! Phindile would love to show you around 🍀
Also - we have a super cool announcement to make about your showroom soon. Can’t wait! Watch this space 😁
1. If there's a leak, you don't have to pull the whole thing apart to fix it! You just turn off the water and move the unit off the wall.
2. You don't have to worry about the cupboards disintegrating over time because of small pools of water soaking into all those nooks and crannies created when you stick some thing steadfastly to the wall. Even if you do get splashes of water here and there - our units are solid wood, they are practically “undisintegratable”.
3. If you invest in a beautiful Butler Sink Unit like this, you don't need to throw it away when you move or renovate. You can just take the whole thing with you!
Meet Phindile
Phindile is our Showroom Administrator. She runs the showroom in Parkhurst, Johannesburg. She is in charge of all things showroom-y: stock lists, sales reports, deliveries, quotation requests, enquiries, the showroom layout, and more.
Phindile has a Bachelor of Arts degree in Business Administration. She is stylish, beautiful and super efficient. She has such a dry sense of humour we often have no idea if she’s joking or not.
We’re very happy to have her on our team!
If you’re on the fence about freestanding kitchens, you may just have to see them in real life 👀...
Our showroom in Parkhurst is open from 9am to 5pm Monday to Friday, and 9am to 2pm on Saturday.
Here’s a little video of our first official 3D layout 😁.
The kitchen is the heart of your home, and when you’re ordering from Milestone Kitchens you’re investing in your future and in us, so we really want your kitchen to be perfect! It’s important that we’re all on the same page and that you understand exactly what you’re ordering.
It can also be hard for our clients to visualise our freestanding units in their homes. This new design option (a 3D layout) makes it so much easier! 🏠
We’ve been quiet for a few days - that’s because we’ve been working hard on our VERY FIRST OFFICIAL 3D KITCHEN LAYOUT!
Flip it’s so cool and we’re so proud of it! Big ups to Sam, our Multimedia Designer, for putting it all together.
We charge R1000 for 3D kitchen layout, payable up front, but later deducted from the cost of your order.
We’re chuffed to be featured in the December/January issue of Home Magazine. It’s not too late to get your hands on a copy - its a banger!
This article is all about how we planned 2020 Hero-Item competition winner’s kitchen. The article includes a couple of tips and tricks to help you plan your kitchen. 2021’s Hero-Item comp, where you can win R50 000 worth of Milestone Kitchens units, and free delivery with Biddulphs International, will be running in the not-too-distant future. Keep your eyes peeled and your ears open!
We’re working on Vincent and Adri’s kitchen now and we’re really looking forward to showing you all 😁
REMINDER: We always have some cool stuff at our showroom in Parkhurst! 🎁

It includes a 4-plate gas hob inside the Cutlery Server. It is in great condition.

It feels like we haven't shown you a French Flair kitchen in ages!
Throwing it back to this classic French Flair Milestone Kitchen in KZN.
We’d love to hear what you like about it?
Meet Sizwe.
Sizwe received the Carpenter of Year award for 2020 for his continued precision, workmanship and excellent understanding of our clients needs.
Sizwe has been head carpenter of the African Allure range since 2010. He selects and prepares his wood expertly so it has that rough, textured finish. He keeps the legs and overall structure solid and chunky but still classy. His cornices are always defined by symmetry. He always wears a hat. And he leads his team calmly and efficiently.
We have included some photos of his work in this post.
We have created a new page! Milestone Kitchens Factory Seconds is a platform for Milestone Kitchens to sell our solid wood, handcrafted, freestanding kitchen (and other) units at DISCOUNTED prices.
All of these units have been on the showroom floor for while, are once off/experimental units or have been damaged in some way.
Please like and follow the page if you are interested in our specials or once-off creations.
Thinking of getting your spouse something extra special this Valentine’s Day? ♥️
We have some good news for you! We’re offering a 7% discount on all orders placed during February 2021. Link to our website is in our bio.
Alternatively you can email us on info@milestonekitchens.co.za or WhatsApp/Call us on 0799495745.

Charming, beautiful and versatile. Our Display Cupboard is Sam’s favourite MK unit. It can be made in all 3 of our ranges, in any colour you prefer.
Sam also says you should order yours today!
Love love love enquiries like this!
We are proud to say that we have delivered units to Morocco, Scotland, Norway, England, Uganda, Zambia, Namibia, Botswana, Zimbabwe and all over South Africa of course.
Aaaand hopefully to Chris in the USA soon! 😉
Often when we photograph a Milestone Kitchen, I have to do a couple of portraits for articles and stuff. They have mostly turned out okay and so I have compiled a "How To Do a Portrait" list using the techniques that have worked for me:
* Wake up early so that you are not late.
* Get dressed.
* Change your outfit.
* Change your outfit again.
* Put make-up on while you think of a better outfit.
* Keep your outfit but change your shoes.
* Leave for the shoot location on time.
* Brake, stop. Quickly run back to your house and get your other outfit, just in case (NOTE: You will never ever ever use the extra outfit, but you should still bring it. Don’t mess with the system).
* Pick up flowers for the client.
* Call the photographer and tell them you are running late.
* Arrive late.
* Once you are taking the photos ask the photographer if they think you should change your outfit?
* Say: "I AM smiling with my eyes." Up to 10 times.
* Remember that in order to "look comfortable" you usually have to be uncomfortable.
* Assume that the sentence "yes, your hair looks neat" is a lie.
* Receive the proofs.
* Wonder if you should have worn a different outfit.
* Deliberate which photo to choose (at least an hour).
* Write the photograph numbers onto pieces of paper.
* Put pieces of paper into a hat.
* Pick piece of paper out of hat and let photographer know the number.
Regards,
Sabrina
Head Carpenter of the Swedish Style range, Sanele made some pretty pretty units this last month.
He also made some units that were a mix between Swedish Style and French Flair.
They’re all ready to go now!
Swipe through and let us know what you like 😊.
This Mudroom Unit by Milestone Kitchens is available by order in all 3 of our ranges.
This specific one is also available in our Showroom at 52 6th street in Parkhurst, Johannesburg.
Perfect for your hallway! 🧥 👢 🥾 👞 💼
Ever had an unwelcome explosion of fabric, pins, patterns, threads, bobbins, brushes, scissors, string, buttons and tape all over your desk, floor or dining room table while pursuing your favourite hobby?
Well, then Milestone Kitchens' latest design is for you!
Store all your crafty paraphernalia in this cupboard so that when you're taking a break from your project all you need to do is stand up, push your chair in and close the doors. Your space can be as neat as a pin in a matter of seconds.
The beautifully designed Craft Cupboard is the solution Milestone Kitchens has come up with for keeping sewing, craft or hobby spaces neat, practical AND pretty. Although the cupboard was designed specifically for sewing, it lends itself well to all forms of arts and crafts, and it can be customised to further suit whatever it is that tickles your creative fancy.
The Craft Cupboard is available in any of Milestone Kitchens' three ranges, African Allure, French Flair or Swedish Style, and can be painted in Milestone Kitchens’ standard colours: Stoney Grey, Ice White or Aged Cream, or any colour your heart desires.
1450mm x 650mm x 2100mm.
R33 285 excl. VAT.
And the best part of all: we are offering a 5% DISCOUNT on all orders placed before the end of the week.
Sabrina Suggests the Deluxe Coffee Dresser in African Allure.
This isn’t our standard Deluxe Coffee Dresser, it usually has open shelves at the top and has only been made before in Swedish Style. When a client asked for one in African Allure we were very chuffed - we’ve always wanted to do one in our AA range, but haven’t had the opportunity. We weren’t disappointed!
Sabrina says that as soon as she has a big enough lounge, she’s getting one in African Allure painted in Graphite Black (instead of Stoney Grey), with a black vein stain Ash top, and filling with white crockery 🍽☕️🍵🥛🫖.
These Coat and Shoe Racks in solid Ash are available exclusively from our showroom at no. 52 6th street in Parkhurst, Randburg, Johannesburg.
What are you waiting for?
This client received their brand new MK units before we went on holiday and they’ve just sent us photos - we love what they’ve done 😍.
We’re doing a photo shoot next week - stay tuned for the professional pics!
Check out our stories on Wednesday for some behind the scenes action 📸.
Freestanding kitchens are for practical people with great taste and style. In this video explain the differences between a freestanding and a fitted kitchen and show you some real-life kitchens illustrating the advantages of ‘going freestanding’. We’ve been really looking forward to sharing it.
Have a look and please don’t hesitate to contact us when you are ready to start designing your freestanding kitchen. Milestone Kitchens is here for you!
Milestone Kitchens offers a range of free-standing kitchens units in three styles. Each kitchen unit is carefully hand crafted to suit its unique style and is constructed using a combination of solid wood and supawood in key structural areas.
We close tomorrow!
Milestone Kitchens factory opens again on the 18th of January.
Milestone Kitchens Showroom is still open until the 23rd of December, it will re-open on the 11th of January. There are some lovely MK Smalls available at the showroom (which make great Christmas gifts), as well as @mkfactoryseconds.
We hope you have a wonderful festive season under the African sun ☀️.
You have so much room to play around, versatility and flexibility. And you know what? There’s not a whole bunch of pressure because you can always move your kitchen around.
The Sandy family upgraded to free-standing. Have a look at these AFTER, PLANNING and BEFORE photos of the heart of this family’s home.
🔹Range: Swedish Style
🔹Colour: Ice White
🔹Paint Finish: Distressed (standard)
🔹Base Construction: Plinth
The Sandy family are all vertically advantaged so we made their kitchen extra high.
Tiyon smashed their glass top hob (that’s not the cool part). Her and Sipho have household insurance which includes accidental damage to household contents. When they tried to claim for a new hob, the insurance company originally said no because “kitchens are a part of the building and therefore not part of the contents”...
BUT
Tiyon said “woah wait ✋🏼, actually, my kitchen is free-standing, in fact, we’re taking it with us if we ever move”. And then their insurance covered it.
We have plenty of MK Smalls available in our showroom at 52 6th Street, Parkhurst, Randburg, Johannesburg. All of our Smalls are made from off cuts.
We’re open until the 23rd of December. Don’t miss out, Christmas is near!
This cupboard fits a single sink, a 20L microwave, a mini fridge, and a 2-plate hob. And does it in style! You can add or remove the appliances you need.
Perfect for a guest flat, student accommodation, BnB and Guesthouses, or even the lounge as a coffee station.
👩🍳Available in all 3 ranges.
🔪Available on legs, castors, plinth and recessed plinth.
☕️Available in any color.
🏠Available with any of our standard handles.

A message and some pics from a happy client: “We are so happy... it has literally changed our lives. Thank you!”
Bryan, the man smiling at the end of the video, is our resident jack-of-all-trades, in this video he’s in Sizwe’s work station, working as an assistant carpenter.
Sizwe is our African Allure specialist. He’s been with us for 19 years! He was born and raised in Mpolweni, 2kms down the road from Milestone Factory.
Here’s some of our Swedish Style production, nearly ready for delivery next week.
Sanele is our Swedish Style specialist - what parts of his work stands out for you? Click here to comment.
All units in our showroom with a black dot on them on Thursday the 26th, Friday the 27th and Saturday the 28th of November will be on sale at up to 75% off!
Please note: many of these items have been on the showroom floor a long time or are factory seconds. No returns, no refunds. First come first serve!
This kitchen has 20mm Blonde Ash tops as opposed our usual thick 40mm tops. What do you think of them?
Our 7 Piece Starter Set Special (7PSSS) has all of the freestanding kitchen units you need for a functional (and beautiful) kitchen. As well as being the Factory Floor Manager, Dennis is the head of our French Flair production team and (naturally) French Flair is his favourite range.
Except on rare occasions when they are all sold out, we always have a 7PSSS in all of our ranges in stock - an INSTANT kitchen. Many of our clients buy a 7PSSS and then add other units as their space requires. You save more than R12 000 in total buying the 7PSSS.
Please note, orders for delivery in 2020 are FULL.
In the mean time, chat to us - we would love to help you plan your 2021 kitchen renovation!
After a very busy October we begin another month of full production this November.
Some snap shots from the last month:
1 - Start of production meeting with French Flair team leader (Dennis), Swedish Style team leader (Sanele), African Allure team leader (Sizwe), Painting team leader (Goodness), Sanding team leader Malusi l, and Sabrina.
2 - Carpenter Dumisane working on a Pastry Table.
3 - Solid wood, prepared and ready to use.
4 - Sizwe working on a Corner Unit carcass.
5 - Sabrina at the new Showroom.
6 - Carpenter Vusi working on a Kitchen in a Cupboard (bottom) carcass.
7 - Buyi, our Wonder Woman, marvelling at her drying Pastry Table slats.
8 - the painting ladies discussing their paint requirements for the month.
9 - Bryan keeping the butler sink base down so that Buyi can screw it in straight.
10 - Dennis, factory manger, putting on doors.
We hope that was a little interesting!
Have a lovely weekend everyone☀️.
If you’ve been on our website, you’ve seen this French Flair kitchen. It’s one of the first Milestone Kitchens we ever produced and still remains one of our favourites.
It’s French Flair (without the twirl), in Aged Cream (with a touch of red), on plinth (but legs on the island), and antique handles.\
I don’t if you all know that on Fridays we start work at 6am and skip lunch so that we can finish at 2:30 and have a longer weekend.
We often get to see a beautiful sunrise over Milestone Factory!
Have a wonderful weekend everyone 🧡💛💚.
Phumla loves our Standard Island, she especially likes it in Plascon Addo Skin, if you scroll you can see a sneaky peak of the side of this Island in Addo Skin (unfortunately we don’t have a professional photo of it for you).
This is our most popular island in all 3 of our ranges!
Coming soon: Dennis Desires, Sabrina Selects, Sam Suggests and Phindile Promotes 😉.
An African Allure Butler Sink Unit with a Ribchester sink and a Plate Rack, in Stoney Grey with a dark-stained Ash top and base.
This rustic, simple, textured range always pairs well with a few ornate decor pieces like the chandelier and the wrought iron candle holders.
One of the most exciting differences between a fitted and freestanding kitchen is that free-standing kitchens give you creative freedom.
Because the kitchen units are not all stuck together you are free to choose different colours, working surfaces, kitchen styles, and base constructions - all in one kitchen.
This particular client👇🏽bought her units from our Factory Outlet Shop, one at a time, painting them all black. The units are different ranges, have different handles, basic constructions and tops - and look at the result! 🧡💚🖤
Sometimes we set out our clients’ full kitchen in the factory, just to double check everything is in order.
That’s the thing about free-standing kitchens - they’re so versatile!
📸: @sally_chance
Our new Milestone Kitchens showroom at 52, 6th street, Randburg, Johannesburg is open from Monday the 12th October 2020!

Congratulations to Adri Boulle from Memel, Free State, the winner of Milestone Kitchens units to the value of R50 000!
Adri’s ultimate kitchen plan coming soon...
The competition was featured in the Home Magazine July issue.
A custom Butcher Block Island going to Queenstown. We love it so much we think we’ll make it a permanent addition to our catalogue!
The beautiful end grain Ash top was made by Cotswold Furniture.
We love the timeless, casual feel of this Milestone Kitchen in our French Flair range.
This client has added our pieces to her kitchen over time, as it suits her - oh the joy of a freestanding kitchen!
We called it “timeless and casual”, if you had 2 words, how would you describe this kitchen?
The Table Island is Silvia Miles’s innovative solution. It has a table on one end and a prep and storage area on the other end: a table + an island = the table island.
Posing with some units from our August production🔥.
Which of these would you choose for your house? (The furniture not the people).

We’re a small business, our team is very versatile. Everybody does a lot of different things so it’s difficult to categorise ourselves. But these 3 ladies are who we like to call the MK Design Team.
From left to right:
💥Phumla aka Miss Positivity, who runs our Outlet Shop where clients go to see and plan their units in real life.
💥Silvia aka Big-Boss, who has decades of experience in kitchen design and adds that extra special creative flair and design.
💥Sabrina aka Sista-Boss, who gets the measurements right, figures out the mathsy type stuff, makes sure your kitchen dreams are possible.
If you need help planning your kitchen, these are the people on the other end of the phone/computer.
The Sandy family upgraded to free-standing.
The sink and usually the stove in a fitted kitchen are completely rooted allowing no mobility for cleaning, maintenance, repairs or a change. Our free-standing Sink and Stove Units are not stuck to the walls, allowing for easy access for plumbing and repairs. If you need to fix a leak in your sink area, all you need to do is switch off the water and move the sink unit forwards.
Have a look at these BEFORE and AFTER photos of the family’s new sink wall.
The Prentice’s bought our first African Allure bar about 10 years ago. This is their brand new, custom made African Allure Drinks Cabinet and Pastry Table in Graphite Black to match.
Completed just in time for level 2😉!
What colours would you like in your bar?
The Bredenkamps, winners of last years “hero-item” competition with Home Magazine sent us this special email last week and it has our hearts bursting 💕:
“Dear Rosie, Nomonde, Dennis, Dumisani, Goodness, Malusi, Sabrina and Silvia, How can we ever thank you for the changes you made in our kitchen and in our lives! When my husband and son arrived at home after collecting the units from your factory, it was real that we have a new kitchen. I could never dream about having Milestone cupboards, but I did dream about winning the competition, so what I wrote in my 100 words were real.
We want to thank you for the kitchen units we received - the excellent quality of work all these people did with each cupboard. It was very special for us to know who are part of the process of manufacturing and the special note with all the names and their special jobs written, made your business and our cupboards unique. That includes the small cutting board! We admire the work all these people do and believe they will all be blessed.
Our kitchen is such a pleasure! We enjoy each unit in its own way, but the kitchen island is the best. It provides a lot of extra work space.
We also enjoy the drawers running smoothly comparing to our old cupboards!
Our kitchen is still the place where about everything happens, but it changed a lot - we thank you.
We are priviledged! It was a pleasure to work with you!”
We’re sad to say goodbye to her but so excited for what is to come!

We’re working on a new Milestone Kitchens’ Concept Cupboard, can you guess what it is?? We might be able to arrange a little surprise for the person with the closest guess.
A happy client sent us some pics of her custom-made TV cabinet today. We love receiving pics of our units in their new homes, it makes our job feel fulfilling and gives us a real sense of accomplishment!
Whenever we get a pic from a client we all stop what we’re doing and ooh and ahh over it (for a few minutes more then is probably necessary) before going back to work.
Please send us pics of your MK units!

Solid Ash Tops
Ash is a very hard durable wood with a beautiful grain.
Our Ash is imported from Canada and is FSC approved. This means it is:
🌲produced in a way that maintains and enhances the social and economic well-being of workers.
🌲environmentally-friendly.
🌲socially sustainable.
🌲and not only maintains, but restores the environment in which it is grown.
Although it is significantly more expensive than Pine, it will last a lifetime. You have the choice of raw, blonde, light, medium, dark or black vein stain for the colour of the ash. Which one is your favorite?

Solid Pine Tops
You have a number of different options for your Milestone Kitchens counter top. The most affordable choice is our solid Pine tops. We source all our Pine from local forests within 50km from our factory.
On any of our tops, you have the choice of raw, blonde, light, medium or dark stained - swipe through the photos and let us know which is your favorite?
We often get questions about waterproof a Pine top is - you don’t have to worry about water getting into the grain if your top is well sealed.

A BLAST FROM THE PAST
How CUTE is this 
”
A special message from last year’s Home Magazine hero-item competition winner’s Carrie Lee and Michael:
Free standing Wardrobes are the future. They can be moved from room to room, corner to corner, as the need arises. Moving house? No problem. Take it with you. The freedom, choices and options are endless.

Hey South Africa! This is for you.
Our Deluxe Coffee Dresser is 2700mm wide x 2400mm tall and can be customised to fit a fridge, a microwave, a coffee machine, or an extra big coffee mug - whatever you like!
Recently a client came to us with an idea, something she’d seen and thought: “Now that’s what I want!” 
Based on her ideas we designed a unit, sent her a quote and now she has her very own custom TV cabinet!
For these 21 days, like most South African businesses, we have shut our doors and are staying at home, much to the delight of all our pets. We are proud of the way South Africa is responding to the National Lockdown. In the words of our president Cyril Ramaphosa: “I call on all of us, one and all, to play our part. To be courageous, to be patient, and above all, to show compassion. Let us never despair. For we are a nation at one, and we will surely prevail.” Together, if we all act responsibly and selflessly, we can beat COVID-19. Let’s do it South Africa!
The kitchen is the heart of the home. With the approaching lockdown, we will all be spending a lot more time in our kitchens. These clients sure won’t mind spending all that time in their beautiful African Allure kitchen!
All the best for the lockdown fellow South Africans.
Have you seen our Infinity Units? They are versatile, movable and multi-purpose, not to mention cute! You can choose how many of the 625mm wide sections you would like to string together to best suit your needs. Some ideas for your infinity unit are: as a TV stand, to give some height and a home to your pot plants, they can be placed underneath a window (and used for pot plants or baskets), they could even be used a pedestal - the possibilities are endless!
Cyril Ramaphosa’s great speech on Sunday evening has mobilized us to all do our part to help slow the spread of COVID-19. In light of this, our Factory Outlet Shop will be open BY APPOINTMENT ONLY in the coming weeks.
Phumla, our shop manageress, would love you to still come pop in, so contact her on 0725086215 to secure your appointment. We want to encourage you to also do your best to practice social distancing - it will only work effectively if we all do our part.
With everything going on in our country and the world at the moment, we are thankful we live and work in such a spacious beautiful place. Please keep safe and healthy and look out for one another during this trying time. Together we can combat the Coronavirus 💪🏿💪🏾💪🏽💪🏼

Islands are a wonderful central unit in a kitchen. Milestone Kitchens has many different Island designs for you to choose from. Free standing Islands are very versatile and can be moved around to change up your kitchen. Or even taken with you if you move house! Islands on caster wheels are especially easy to wheel around, outside to the braai area, inside to where your guests are or simply rotated for a fresh look.

Sabrina’s Quick Fixes
1 Replace your cupboard doors only and then paint your carcasses to match.
2 Remove some old cabinets or a wall to make room for a kitchen island. The Milestone Kitchens freestanding islands on castors are very popular as they can be moved around sand used as servers, tables or breakfast nooks.
The same can be said for replacing units with one of our coffee dressers or grocery cupboards. This is the beauty of freestanding units, not everything has to be done at once.
3 It can be practical and beautiful to have a combination of different countertops in a kitchen. Stainless steel around the sink for water permeability combined with a wood top on an island for comfort and warmth can be very striking.

Tiyon Loubser and Sabrina Miles (the Boss’s Daughter) have been friends since primary school. She was practically a part of the family when Milestone Kitchens came into fruition and has wanted her very own Milestone Kitchen since before the factory even existed! So we were naturally ecstatic when this dream finally became a reality for her, in 2018 ❤️.
The kitchen in Tiyon’s new house was a difficult space to work with but with the help of Silvia and the team, a floor plan was drawn up, and we think it’s lovely!

“Shannon and I were at 44 Stanley last weekend and saw your store. I can’t tell you how impressed I am. Your products and vision is awe-inspiring. Seeing all the various combos brought memories of shopping for our cottage kitchen flooding back.” - a favourite client from Pretoria
Our Factory Outlet Shop at 44 Stanley contains great specials, plenty inspiration, and Phumla our effervescent Shop Manageress, AND it’s open every day of the week.
At the beginning, Milestone Kitchens was a three-man team, consisting of Dennis, Sizwe (who are both still with us) and Sipho, functioning in the garage of Silvia Miles’s home. Over seventeen years later, the garage has grown into a 650 square meter factory and the three-man team has expanded to employ and train up to 30 people from our local community. We are able to compete with the best kitchen companies in the country. We have all worked hard to establish a successful business and we are very proud of our product.
The Carpenters and Painters.
Quote: “Cabanga kabili, usike kanye“ - think twice cut once.
We believe that local is lekker, and better. So, we only employ and train people from our local communities. Our carpenters and painters take great pride in making quality kitchens for the families that we work with.
The vast majority of our carpenters and painters have been with Milestone Factory for 15+ years (I think you could say they’re happy here). Most started of our staff began at MK unskilled and have learnt their skills on the job over the years and are now invaluable in an economy where skilled labour is scarce.

You've already been introduced to Lulu De Beer, Bedette Olivier and Phumla Majola, but in case you've forgotten...
Lulu joined MK in December 2012. She is an internationally certified, City and Guild accredited front office/hotel manageress. She specialised in culinary arts during her course and graduated from Legends Hospitality School of Fine Cuisine with a distinction (we appreciate good food at MK). So you know she has a good understanding of how things are supposed to work in the kitchen. Lulu has 2 sons, and a menagerie of dogs, cats, geese (I'm probably missing a few). Lulu is a motivator, psychologist, lawyer, doctor, chef, dog whisperer, photographer, bodyguard and a highly valued human being.
Official Titles: Personal Assistant to Silvia Miles and Chief Designer.
Unofficial Title: Right hand woman.
Quote: “ Of all the things you can choose to be today, choose to be kind."
Bedette Olivier is the newest addition to the MK family, she came from an administration position at an airline company, to MK where she takes care of all of the general admin, and is an important link between the office and the carpenters on the factory floor. She is an adept logistical co-ordinator and not someone you want to get into an argument with! She is resilient, hard working and ALWAYS goes the extra mile.
Official Title: Factory Administrator
Quote: "Rather an hour early than 1 minute late”.
She is reliable, honest and full of fun, she always has a smile on her face. Phumla has a Bachelor of Arts Degree in psychology. She runs the Milestone Kitchens FOS (Factory Outlet Shop) at 44 Stanley. She does everything: from decorating, to organising deliveries, to cleaning, to helping prospective clients with important dream-kitchen-making decisions.

Dennis Mkhize has been the Milestone Factory Manager for 20 years, since the working-out-of-Silvia’s-garage days. He has a vast knowledge of carpentry. After finishing matric he won an award to be trained as a carpenter at PMB Gateway Prison project - we snapped him up soon afterwards and he has been with us ever since.

She manages the social media and marketing related tasks, from somewhere - nobody is ever really sure where. Sabrina has a Bachelor of Engineering in Industrial Engineering and understands all things entrepreneurial. Sometimes she consults for the business in an industrial engineering capacity. Sabrina is passionate about the company and will be joining the team in a more permanent role in the next few years.

Tess is a passionate, talented, very creative, proudly South African, recently graduated Video Journalist from Rhodes University. And no, we are not biased.

This is a recent venture for us, but we have (we hope), some exciting things lined up so watch this space!

This week on Social Media we will be introducing you to some of the core members of the Milestone Team. First up is the big boss: Silvia Miles.
Official titles: CEO, Founder.
Unofficial Title: Creative Genius.
Quote: “In the dark you will never find the light switch if you don’t move.”
Silvia completed a Bachelors of Arts degree in painting and geography cum laude, with honours in painting, and also her PGCE. We are still not sure what this has to do with freestanding kitchen units, but we do know she is clever. After a couple years of teaching her way around the world, she went on to start her own business, MK. Silvia has a gift for making spaces beautiful, she is also a mother and a passionate, excellent cook (we know we’ve tasted her stress-cooking). This combination has rather effectively translated into an ability to design and manufacture furniture to create practical and beautiful kitchens and spaces, and evolved Milestone Kitchens into what it is today.

We love the way Debbie Coulson has combined Swedish Style units with blonde solid Ash tops in a space with lots of natural light to create this - her second milestone kitchen. And she said she can’t wait for her third! Think she likes us?

It’s been almost a year since we first served you guys delicious chocolates from Chocoloza and scrumptious cheesecake and brownies from Salvation Cafe (ja that was a good time and no sorry we’re not doing it again right now), but, we’ve learnt SO much since that day and we’re excited to bring you even bigger and better things in the coming year!
We had a wonderful holiday under the African sun, and we hope you did too, (but we've had enough of our relatives now), and we're looking forward to a new year at Milestone Kitchens!
The Milestone Kitchens FOS at 44 Stanley is opening on Monday - we’d love to see you. This is a great opportunity to get those early bird orders in, as production is nearly full for Feb 2019.
It's not too late to get yourself (or your family) a last minute christmas treat from 44 Stanley Avenue!
Today is closing day! The Milestone Team wishes you a happy and safe festive season 🌲 🌲 🌲
P.S. This also means last day to get in orders for your free-standing, award-winning, designer, stress-free (!) kitchen units, for delivery in February!
But don’t worry, the Milestone Kitchens FOS and other worthwhile shops at 44 Stanley are still open if you’d like to do some Christmas shopping.
This is sparkly, beautiful Phum. She is full of fun and always has a smile on her face (and no sorry guys, this is not a dating app). Phumla runs the Milestone Kitchens FOS (Factory Outlet Shop) at 44 Stanley. She does everything: from decorating, to organising deliveries, to cleaning, to helping prospective clients with important dream-kitchen-making decisions. And she is so lovely to be around - it’s worth visiting our FOS just to to have a conversation with her!
Reliable, hard-working and eternally honest - we are so grateful we have you on our team Phum!
This is a picture of a hand-made, custom-made African Allure corner unit in white, taken on the factory floor just before it was wrapped up and sent off to a valued client. Everything we make is customizable and can be sized to fit perfectly into your kitchen and lifestyle!

We love orders like this! It’s awesome getting to make someone’s vision a reality.
This is a coffee dresser designed by a Mrs Venter, she drew this simple diagram for us and the Milestone carpenters worked their magic.
What fabulous ideas are floating around in your head? Is there anything you want but can’t find? Draw us a picture and we can make it happen.

Surprisingly, the best part about taking this photo was not sitting on the Milestone Kitchens trestle table but getting to sit next to Brian the mini-GSP 😍❤️
Our Kitchen In A Cupboard is perfect for guest houses, guest rooms, students housing, granny flats, hotels or any small space needing a kitchen. The KIAC has a sink, stove, microwave and mini fridge AND it all fits into this compact, stylish, cupboard. We can make this product in all shape and sizes and order your appliances, it’s fully customizable. Wheels, legs or skirting, stone tops, ash tops, pine tops - whatever fits your budget, we can do it for you! Have you ever seen an easier kitchen set up?
If you’ve been watching our stories lately you’ll know we have been experimenting with different shapes and colours. This grocery cupboard/wardrobe has been finished with pink chalk paint and a rose wallpaper. You can find it and others at the Factory Outlet Shop in Johannesburg.
Milestone Kitchens Factory Outlet shop opened in February 2018. Everything in this photo has been sold since it was taken on opening day - visit us at 44 Stanley Avenue, MilPark, Johannesburg and have a look at what else we have to offer before that sells out too!
Whether it’s to gain some inspiration and get those creative juices flowing, chat about ‘what’s new’ to our awesome sales reps, or indulge in a delicious coffee from Salvation Cafe, we’d love to see you!
Milestone Kitchens units are very versatile - in fact, contrary to popular belief we make furniture that can be used all over the house. This single vanity can be seen from the seat of a very nice toilet in a very nice bathroom in a very nice flat in KZN, South Africa. The second picture depicts the kitchen in said very nice flat, just in case you got so excited about this very nice vanity that you forgot we also make very nice kitchen units.
We had a wonderful and inspiring lunch with Home Magazine and SARIE Tydskrif yesterday The Oyster Box #printisnotdead.
These diverse magazines are full of ideas, inspiration and sometimes a Milestone Kitchens Unit or 3. If you haven’t had the privilege of owning one yet - better late than never!
“Kitchen islands serve a number of purposes. In addition to being a visual anchor in the space, they also help increase the room’s functionality and efficiency.”
Milestone Kitchens offer a number of island options and can customize them to meet your needs!
Want a wine rack? We’ll make you a wine rack! Want it on casters? We’ll put it on casters. Want a purple and yellow island with green legs? We’ll make you a purple and yellow island with green legs.
Overlooking Durban beachfront is this classic yet contemporary Milestone Kitchen, we love it! And so does the SA Garden and Home.
This is Bedette, AKA Bee 🐝 aka Meep (don’t ask me why). We would like to officially welcome her to the Milestone Kitchens team where she is attempting to fill the space left by Superwoman On Maternity Leave, Lulu de Beer. These shoes were acquired after 7 years of growing and learning while MK has grown from a small company into what it is today, and they are some big shoes to have to step into! Despite this, Bee is a resilient, hard worker and is learning quickly, she always goes the extra mile! I don’t think she knows my real name, or if she does she has forgotten it because she always, without fail, calls me Boss (I am not complaining as this is rather empowering and reminds me that I am an independent woman). When Lulu gets back Bee will stay on the team to help keep up with the growing administration demands of Milestone Kitchens.
Bee we are excited to have you with us and we look forward to a happy and successful future with you on the team!
Congratulations to Lulu and her family on the birth of their 4.2kg bundle of joy. Welcome to the world Dakota Potgieter!
This beautiful kitchen now belongs to Johanette Fellows from Pretoria. Johanette made her own concrete tops for her kitchen and they are stunning! In fact, she has started her own concrete top business. Concrete tops go so well with the Milestone Ranges, we are very impressed with how clever she has been combining them with her Swedish Style kitchen.
Should you wish to get a concrete top, you are welcome to contact Johanette on (082) 319 2391 for more information about them. You can also have a look at her website: http://www.imbecraft.com/
There are a number of different options for you and your kitchen regarding tops, hardwood, softwood, steel, Caesar stone, granite. Have a look at our new MK tops page.
"Thanks for meeting me. It was one of my dreams to meet you and now it seems that I will be getting one of your super kitchens."
Sandra Spangler made an appointment to see me at our Joburg Showroom last week. We sat and chatted and planned the Milestone kitchen she has been wanting for years, together.
I would love to meet with you and help you plan your dream kitchen! All you need to do is make an appointment.
It is always exciting to find ourselves in the Media! I came across our lovely Coffee Dresser in the March issue of the House and Leisure.
I don’t know if the world knows, but there’s a special woman who works behind the scenes at Milestone Kitchens. Her name is Lulu aka my Right Hand aka Superwoman aka Expecting Mom.
Lulu will:
Go over a 1000 emails per day, take and make calls, WhatsApp and SMS at speed, chase suppliers, keep up with the Live Chat, expertly fill in multiple forms, intuitively read between the lines, and maintain a sense of humour, all at the same time! Lulu is able to prepare any sort of letter, be it; employment contracts, dismissals and referrals, or a cake in the shape of an A.
When she is not in communication zone, she manages my finances, finds and interviews prospective employees, takes pictures, makes videos and slide shows, prints, faxes, writes up interviews, cancels accounts, opens accounts, prepares wages, and still finds the time to go to the toilet.
Not only does Lulu always know what the weather is doing - she knows exactly how I feel most of the time (I don’t even know how I feel half of the time?). In the (often occurring) necessity, she can: cure migraines, drive a truck, get to town and back in under an hour, remember the passwords for 25 different accounts, type in legal jargon, negotiate with labour units and the CCMA, arrange bank loans, fix anything, and make the best hot toddies. If needed, she will make supper, lunch, and, very importantly, coffee. She can, in fact, cater for a function for 30 people at a few hours notice. Probably while texting clients. By the way, no, she is not looking for a new job.
She is a motivator, psychologist, lawyer, doctor, chef, photographer, body guard, dog whisperer and a highly valued human being. I think the only thing she can’t do is work and have a baby at the same time! We are going to miss you over the next few months here at Milestone Kitchens Lulu, your beautiful boy is going to grow up in the most capable of hands and I can’t wait to meet him! ❤.

Make sure you enter our Milestone Kitchen competition in the August edition of HOME/TUIS. One lucky person gets to win R50 000 toward the cost of a new kitchen.
The pictures below give you an idea of what can be achieved with free-standing units. They are made from a combination of solid wood and supawood and not stuck to the walls so you are at liberty to move them, paint them, change only one top or all the tops, use them somewhere else or even remodel them. The choice is endless. You will never regret your decision to go this route.
We have a 7 Piece Starter Set Special in French Flair painted in Fresh Linen, available at our Factory Outlet Shop. The pieces are set on plinths, legs and castors, and have antique oval knob handles and blonde pine tops. Here are 2 of the pieces, rush to our factory outlet shop to view more of them.
Our famous and great value for money 7PSSS usually goes for R60 000 (plus VAT) but this one is going for the ridiculous price of R55 000 and is available immediately from our Factory Outlet Shop at 44 Stanley. GO quickly.
Contact us for more info.
Some happy news in the August issue of Living Magazine for those of you who would like to give their kitchen a face lift on a minimal budget. We can make you just new doors. Send us your door measurements and we will send you a quote.
One of our clients, Eleanor, bought her kitchen in five phases over the period of three years. The process is now complete!
A beautiful open-plan kitchen with plenty of surface space, we love the chic colour contrasts.
In the latest issue of Elle Decoration South Africa, our Factory Outlet Shop is part of their stunning 44 Stanley feature!
"With its stylish interior, this alluring space offers customers the opportunity to experience the brand's solid-wood, modular kitchen units in a lifestyle setting. We love that Milestone Kitchens has filled a gap in the market for locally made, competitively priced, free-standing units," says decor writer Mila Crewe-Brown.
Thanks for including us in the article!
We're featured on Franke Group's #MakeItWonderful blog today!

If you're looking to create the ideal family kitchen, SA Home Owner's Kitchen Confidential feature in this month's issue has all the answers you need!
Milestone Kitchens is featured in the article and our resident kitchen pro, Silvia Miles, was interviewed...
"Free-standing kitchen units, rather than fixed wall-to-floor units are ideal for a family-friendly home, making cleaning that much easier. A broom and vacuum cleaner fits under the units with ease, and if you've chosen units on castors, then you can simply move the units aside to clean the floor," says Silvia.
Not many clients know that we do doors only. Here is an example of a client with a difficult kitchen space. It would have been almost impossible to put free-standing units in Esme Klopper’s kitchen as it has a weird, hexagonal layout, but she desperately wanted a Milestone Kitchen. So we made her doors. This is the result.
This is Esme's feedback:
👍💗💗💗Thank you so much, it's delivered! Beautiful. 👍💗💗💗 I am so pleased, it's beautiful!👍😄😄😄😄💗💗💗💗
Our Housekeeping Cupboard, listed as one of SA Country Life magazine's country kitchen must-haves!
Our units are fully customisable, and can be fitted with a variety of tops for the kitchen.
From stainless steel preparation and sink units to hard-wood kitchen islands, stone countertops and more, there is so much choice and flexibility.
Units with wood or stainless steel tops can be ordered directly from Milestone Kitchens, or you can order your units ‘topless’ to be fitted with the tops of your choice on site.
Recently, one of our clients created bespoke concrete tops for their kitchen. Take a peek...
A stunning kitchen plan that we recently completed! All the units were ordered without tops and fitted with Caesarstone counter tops on site.

"It was a hot day and we were all exhausted, but especially Candice who is 8 months preggies. I love the shoots with Candice and photographer, Sally Chance. We always have many laughs and a lot of fun!" says Silvia.

"I could not believe my eyes when I saw that you opened an outlet shop in Gauteng...I am so excited to visit there with my hubby, as I am in need of a brand new kitchen after 20 years of marriage. I am the type of person who loves to touch and see something before I can actually visualise it in my home...now I get that opportunity and hopefully my starter kitchen unit set will become a reality. Thanks Silvia! See you soon."
Thank you for this lovely message, Connely! We look forward to seeing you at our Factory Outlet Shop very soon.
Have you picked up the latest SA Garden and Home magazine? We're excited to let you know that our 44 Stanley Factory Outlet Shop is featured in the Home Front section and our Njabulo Kennel is on the Shopping page. The issue is on shelves now!
Thank you Tracy Kelly of Nom de Plume Studio for assisting us to bring our vision for the space to life.
We recently assisted Cheryl, from Gauteng, to bring her dream kitchen to life. Silvia loves how warm and inviting this kitchen is and how Cheryl cleverly used other pieces of furniture alongside her Milestone Kitchen units.
Thank you for this lovely feedback, Cheryl...
"Choosing a Milestone Kitchen was one of the best decisions have I ever made. My little kitchen was looking drab and lacklustre and I had wanted to refresh it without losing the cottage feel the entire house has. I chose pieces that could fit in neatly with some existing heirlooms and a more modern shelf. The island is amazing! I use it to display my beloved roses and baked goodies and there is so much space for storage. The ordering process was a dream. Lulu is ever helpful and when the kitchen units arrived my dream fell into place! We are building a new home and although I have to leave my little kitchen behind, I am ordering a new Milestone Kitchen that Lulu has helped me plan. So at least I will have a very similar kitchen in my new home. A Milestone Kitchen should be on everyone's bucket list. Simply stunning!"
We love this write-up on the new shops at 44 Stanley in Hello Joburg Magazine!
Here's what Hello Joburg had to say about Milestone Kitchens:
"These beautifully crafted, modular and free standing kitchen cupboards and units are the bomb for maximising space in small apartments. All your stuff in one place – got it. Moving to a bigger place? Easy – just add on with matching items to grow your home."

Jenna Schoeman was the the winner of the Home Magazine competition that we ran at the end of last year. We are very excited to be creating her dream kitchen for her - transforming a dilapidated space into something that reflects Jenna's style and needs for her kitchen, and does justice to the beauty of her blue stone farmhouse in KwaZulu-Natal.
Here is a peek of the exterior of her house and the kitchen plan that we have created for her. We are excited to start bringing this plan to life!
It's so lovely when someone who already has a Milestone Kitchen comes back for more!
Julie, we look forward to assisting you with your new African Allure kitchen pieces and wardrobe.
