Most of you probably read Kelly's blog. She is so much fun! Well, she is hosting a "Show us where you Live Friday" and this week is the kitchen edition. I am excited about this because I absolutely LOVE looking at houses and decor....it's so much fun and can really show someones personality. I just love to see how others express themselves through decorating. While I really do love my kitchen, it is the room I am looking forward to redoing the very most. My future plans are to take down the wallpaper and paint, paint the ceiling, redo the cabinets (probably really dark wood), paint the island black, take down the florescent light fixture above the island and replace with something a little more up to date, and replace the curtains. I think the previous owners did a great job decorating it but I would rather it be more my personality. I spend A LOT of time in my kitchen and I really enjoy it!!
When my mom and dad moved, they gave me their big round table that seats 6 people. It is so much fun having a round table...it's great to play games and have small group meetings. I also love the green fabric chairs. They do get stains on them, though, and I don't really know what I'm supposed to do about that. Maybe Scotchguard? I don't know. I also like my little cookbook holder nook. :)
I love these containers (I think they are made of cement because they are very heavy). I got them at one of my very favorite places, Yancey's Pharmacy, in Rayville, Louisiana. Maggie Yancey has great taste and buys things that I can't seem to find other places. Whenever we're in Rayville, we always make a stop there. :)
Mar bought me this oil painting either for my birthday or for our anniversary one year (they are only 2 days apart so it's hard for me to remember). I loved this painting every time we went in this antique store (that is no longer open and I can't remember the name of) and would always look for it every time we went in there. For some reason, I am always attracted to fruit paintings.
I got this one year at Pickin' and Ginin' in Rayville. They no longer have that, either, which is sad because it was really neat. It was a festival that they had every year on a weekend and different people would sing, they had yummy food, and there were great shopping boothes. These were tiles from a ceiling on an old house. I thought this was so unique!! They also had one with forks. My mom bought this for me years ago and I have loved it ever since.Anyway, there's my kitchen.
