Kitchen Pictures

Okay, finally we have some pictures of the kitchen! We finished painting and got a new dining room table. We are still working on getting new light fixtures (I hate the ones in there now!) and we are working on getting some more white chairs to go with the table so we can get rid of the black ones. Oh, and we still need a curtain for above the sink (hint hint mom!). But I can’t wait any longer….so here you go! (You can see the before pictures by clicking here.)

This is the view of the kitchen from the hallway. The refrigerator is on the right. We had to buy all new appliances.

My little helper. Why do cats always jump up on the counter right after you clean it?
The door in the background leads to the basement. To the left of that is the hallway that leads to the front door. More pictures of that towards the end of the post. To the right is the laundry room, garage, and the husband’s “man room.”

View of the dining area from the living room. We need a new chandelier! Oops…I forgot to adjust the curtain on the glass door…ignore that!

The book case. I eventually want to get a china cabinet or buffet, but this will work for now!

My mom says I need more close up pictures, so here you go! I love this platter. When my mom was out here visiting we saw it in a shop and she offered to get it for me….and for whatever reason I passed. But as soon as we got home I told her that we should have bought that platter! Well, a few days after she went back to CA a package arrived in the mail for me….the platter! Don’t I have the best mom? I think so.

Isn’t this the cutest cake plate? My mom collects them…and I’m starting to too!

I have been collecting these Pyrex dishes for years. I have a couple boxes of the stuff back in CA.

View from the dining area. Love love love our new appliances!

Still a work in progress…

This cabinet is one of my favorite parts of the kitchen. I love being able to display our cute dishes!

Appliances again.

One of my favorite wedding gifts…my red mixer. I’ve wanted one for years and years.
Our pretty refrigerator! Here you can sort of see the living room to the left and hallway to the right.

Here is the hallway and front door. My mom and the husband hung the photos…makes it so much more like home to have stuff up on the walls.

It turned out cute!

And finally the bathroom off of the hallway. Thanks for looking!
