Little Kitchen Details

 



I had plans to show you just a few more details from my kitchen reveal sooner, but I kind of got derailed this week.

You see, I scheduled a garage sale for this weekend.

With all the sorting, the pricing, and then the arranging of all the items, I completely forgot.

Then my computer gave me fits and that had to be corrected by a Bell technician.
If he had been here in person, I would've hugged him!

Anyway,  without any more blathering, on to the photos,finally.

 Why don't we start with the new curtains I've made....

While in the states, I bought a Painter's cloth at Menards. I simply cut it down the middle, measured it to length and then added a ruffle. 

It was simple, but adding the ruffle made it more time consuming than I had planned! 

But I like it and it works nicely for Fall.

Next, I replaced the green mirror  I had on this wall with a favourite antique print, antlers, and old rusty horseshoes.

When Spring comes I will hang my gingham curtains and the brighter mirror again.

I purchased this clock on sale for ten dollars and the wall quote for two fifty. I had the frame and the burlap from a previous use.

The kitchen is small, so I wanted to keep this wall simple.

Not that I seemed to be too worried about that at the other end of my kitchen where my dining nook is!

This is a view from the dining nook looking towards the clock wall.

Tim bought this for me many years ago and I so happy to display it above my kitchen sink now.

It's a metal sign that I placed on black matting and then framed.

Lastly, this cast iron piece is from an old Kalamazoo antique wood stove. To make the lettering stand out I placed a solid cloth behind it.

The 'K' is for Kimberly now!

 

I think that covers all of the kitchen up-dates.

If you are tinking of painting your kitchen cabinets white, I highly recommend it. I've been doing this for the last twenty three years in all of our kitchens and I haven't tired of it yet!

Have a wonderful weekend friends.

It's raining here, but I'm in a cozying mood so I don't even care.
