Kitchen makeover

I have been missing again but this time it is because we decided to give the kitchen a makeover

 and boy, did it need doing!

I'll let the pictures do the talking...

The picture quality isn't great, the light was rubbish 

but I really didn't want to wait for a sunny day 

as knowing the UK weather that could be months away! 

 

See the cabinet in the corner....it looks lovely now, so pleased with the result.

  I love my new kitchen, it is so fresh!

All that's missing is for the rugs to go back under the table, 

you can't actually see them in any of the pictures here 

but they are great quality as my mum wove them and washable without shrinking.

Paint 'n Glue

From drab to fab

   This display cabinet was inherited from my hubbys aunt

although it is a well made cabinet I found it a bit drab and very old fashioned 

and thus relegated it to the landing, out of my immediate sight,

 b

but I just knew it would look lovely painted. 

It took a long time for Mr B to come around to my way of thinking 

but whilst painting the kitchen and all the cupboards he finally  saw what I saw 

and it was painted and moved to a nice spot in the kitchen where it holds our fine china.

I would love to take credit but the truth is 

Mr B painted this and a nice job he did too.

I'm very pleased with it and in the last picture here you get a sneak peek at the kitchen re-do...

the full reveal will be in a few days so stay tuned.

Quick, cheap and personal.

You could also use these as gift tags as they would make a nice keepsake for a wedding.
