My Kitchen

Kelly over at Kelly's Korner is having a Show Us Where You Live Party!  Since it has been forever since I have posted and have been on somewhat of a "bloggy break", I thought it would be fun to get back in the swing of things by showing off my kitchen!  Every Friday, she will focus on a different room of the home... how fun!

This is a picture of my little kitchen standing right beside the kitchen table.  Our kitchen is small, but I love it!  The cabinets were white when we bought the house.  I antiqued them and my husband put in the granite countertops.  There was also a lot of fruit/floral wallpaper everywhere!!!  I ripped THREE layers of it off and textured the walls.  My handy husband & his dad put up the beadboard for me.   Much better!

This is the view looking in from the formal living room.  I scored big when finding this antique table at Canton while shopping with my sister!

This is the view from the kitchen area looking into the eating area.  Formal living in on the left and the family room is on the right.

This is my area.  I found this desk on the side of the road with a free sign on it!  Of course I had to snatch it up and paint it... it was in pretty bad shape!

As you can see, I LOVE to decorate!  I am always changing out everything.

This is one of my new favorite areas.  The door to the left goes out to the garage.  We use the baskets to keep our keys, sunglasses, etc...

The view of the cooking area... I would love to get a new black smooth cooktop & a new sink, but it's fine for now.

I have my kitchen radio playing all day every day.  Love, love, love it!!!

The area where the black cabinet & desk are is where we used to have the kitchen table.  It was a tight fit, so I decided to move it into the open part & we like it much better!  It made room for the black cabinet (which holds all of my daughter's art supplies) & my desk!
