In The Kitchen

Today I felt inspired to share a few pictures of our kitchen.


I think it's fun to take pictures from different angles sometimes ~ to see the room in a different perspective.


I change things around in here more than any other room.


Probably because I spend so much time in here.


 Do you do that?


My daughter cut some daffodils from our yard for me this morning.

~ so sweet ~


I took these pictures right after it had rained.


I opend the kitchen window and 'The Boss' couldn't resist the chirping of the birds.

{ Of course I don't normally allow him on the counter ~ of course not! }

Have a wonderful weekend!!

    You may not normally allow him up there but I bet he helps himself. :) My girl kitty sure does. I see her little paw prints on my dining room table. Your kitchen is beautiful. I do love looking at things from different angles. The artwork above your stove is really pretty.

    I really like your kitchen, so open and airy and so many cute things to look at. Your kitty wouldn't be a kitty if it didn't jump on your counters. And guess what? My 28 pound dog lies on my kitchen table! lol!

    I think your kitchen is so charming! It's very light and airy and fresh looking. Just as a kitchen should be. I know all about cats climbing on top of things. I think all cat owners have no choice but to let them. They are going to do it anyway! LOL!

    Hi, JoAnne! I'm a first time visitor to your blog! I found you at Show and Tell Friday (hey! I'm there, too!) and love finding new blogs to follow. Yes, I am now your newest follower! Your kitchen is very inviting and I even sneaked a peak at past posts to see the rest of your home. Just smitten with your stone facade! I will be in full decorating mode when we move to our little cottage and will love showing the progress of my changes with others. Thanks again for sharing and if you get a chance, I would love to have you visit my blog.. always love inviting people over for a look-see and a cup of tea!!

    Hi JoAnne! Oh, your kitchen is just darling! Now that little kitty of yours steals the show! You know that, right? :) Didn't you just love that little Keith Partridge and all of his long slinky hair! :) That's one of my favorite songs from him.
    Be a sweetie,
    Shelia ;)

    I love the raspberry artwork! I like your clear flour/sugar containers too. I have red ones now, but I'm kind of getting tired of them. I think I'd like clear better. Love, love, love seeing pics of the boss! My kitten just experienced an open window for the first time the other day. She loved it!

Blue Kitchen Cabinets 2017

I have done a couple posts on kitchens with blue cabinetry in the past, after all it is my favorite color. It has been awhile though, so today I have rounded up some more  amazing kitchens with cottage style that also incorporate blue in  the design. source The kitchen above and the one below have white upper cabinets and soft shades of blue on the lower ones. This is a nice way to use blue without going overboard or ending up with something that you would get tired of quickly. source source Finding the right shade of blue would be key and using a lot of white and wood tones along with it creates a beautiful and timeless look. source source Isn't the kitchen above just so very unique? It has sort of a french country feeling but in an updated way. Wish there was a better picture of the script that's on the wall  on the right. source This kitchen is from Remodelondo la Casa and I've always thought the w

Family Room Reveal

Hello Everyone! I've been meaning to post about our updated family room for a very long time and I'm  finally doing it - yeah!! I had been ready to replace our brown leather furniture for a while and when a new Ikea opened very close to us last summer, I jumped at the chance to take a good look at their slipcovered furniture. Originally the plan was to buy another sofa and loveseat like we had but when I  saw the Ektorp sectional on the showroom floor at Ikea, I was sold.   It just seemed so cozy and I could really envision it in our family room. As you can see, we purchased the sectional with the white slipcover. You just can't beat the prices at Ikea and the quality is definitely good enough for us. I'm at a point where I don't want to buy expensive furniture that I feel like I have to keep forever.   We even had the sofa delivered and they took away the old sofa and loveseat  for a very small fee. We purchased this dre

AFFORDABLE WALL DECOR

Hi Everyone, One of the things I find the most difficult about decorating is finding wall decor that I like and is also affordable. That is one of the main things that I am always on the hunt for and sometimes I have to come up with some creative ideas. Just yesterday, I found this beautiful image of a  white hydrangea at The Graphics Fairy . The Graphics Fairy I printed it out in a size that would fit in a frame that  I already had.  I think it looks so pretty in the simple white frame. I'm probably going to hang it in our bedroom. I'm making a few small changes in there and I will show you when it's completed. This star is actually from the garden section of our local Meijer store.  It was originally silver metal and I spray painted it white. I have seen a lot of people decorate with bread boards. This one fit perfectly in the narrow space between my  cabinet and window and I love the warmth of the wood.  I love th
