It took me awhile, but after the Christmas glitter dust settled, I am finally feeling at home in my new kitchen. Kind of like a good shoe, I had to try it on and wear it through a season before it fit.
We've fallen into the routine of eating most meals at the island. Special meals and weekend dinners get the "big" table.
By adding some curtains, my whole kitchen seems a little more cozy. The fabric is seersucker, which I had never worked with before, but I was pleased with how it turned out. Simple with...
A little bling on the curtain rod!Colors make me happy. I used to live in a monochromatic world, but I've found that colorful accents make me hum a little more.
We chose a neutral wall color (Sherwin Williams Front Porch) so that I could have fun with, well, the fun stuff!

Have I ever told you that we painted the guest room ceiling in our first home martha's front porch blue? the walls were a pale, pale, mint green, the ceiling front porch blue, and we had sheers on the windows.
It was the happiest room...especially when the windows were open blowing the curtains with the breeze. Sweet memories!
I'm in love with your colors and kitchen. It is so true that you have to cook and bake a bit before it starts to feel like home!
I want to come over and sit at the island! I so miss my sweet friends!
I love love love your kitchen. Those curtains are wonderful! I would have probably never chosen that fabric but I absolutely love the way they look. You did great!!!
Our kitchens are very similar. I have the same bar stools and love anything in gingham. The curtains are the perfect color and touch to all a little farmhouse to the space. Great Kitchen:)

Your kitchen is wonderful. I love that big huge island. I would love to have a really big one again like my old house had. Love your splashes of color too, very pretty. Hugs, Marty
Your kitchen is so sweet! I especially love the checked green curtains and farmhouse lights. It's all just like breath of spring...
WOW...what a beautiful space!
I love the pops of color ~ I love everything!
oooh I love those stools. I have been searching for just the right stools and I think you have inspired me. And, the curtains are wonderful as well. I am not the greatest seamstress in the world...luckily, I am also rather forgiving of mistakes. Beautiful kitchen.
Oh so pretty! Love those curtains, color and fabric. Such a happy, fresh room :)
