Welcome to my new kitchen!
New french Tolix chairs and stools from Sundance Catalog and Design Within Reach.
New light fixtures from Restoration Hardware, one bought at a local Downeast Home outlet at a discounted price...score!
LOVE!
I LOVE the painted table. The new antique distressed white brightened up the eating area for a nice clean feel.
I took off the old curtains, and will eventually sew some new ones, but I like the bare windows for winter, letting in lots of light.
I had painted the accent cabinets black when we moved in, but I wanted to brighten everything up, so I painted over the black for all white cabinets.
New polished nickel hardware was bought on ebay for $1 each. I drilled in the drawer pulls extra tight, as many of our drawer fronts were loose or falling off altogether. Much more sturdy for the many little hands that pull and hang on them.
I organized my herbs and spices, using IKEA shelving and containers. I previously had them stuffed into a small cabinet, and every time I reached for a jar, everything fell out! So, now I have the ones I use most filled and in view. Perfecto!
I removed the black drawers and replaced them with our tea cup collection. They were just too pretty to hide any longer. Tea anyone?
That's all for today...more of the home tour to come?
Well, there is more in the works, but alas...December is upon us,
so I must turn my creative energy toward gift-making!

I love it! I love the simplicity and beauty of your make over. Although before was beautiful too. You are a creator of beauty. :)
Love ya!
Beautiful! I love seeing your aprons. :-)
You have been one busy momma! Love the light fixtures and the new look. Makes me motivated to clean and organize AND paint (that's been on my list of to-do for a Loooonnnng time.)
You are seriously amazing!! Where do you find the time to do all this, and it looks like it belongs in a magazine. Love it!!
Love the new look, Tricia! I just painted my front room blue, and I love the light blue in your entryway and stairway. So nice and refreshing! Can't wait to see it in person one of these visits to Utah . .
Everything looks so great!! I LOVE your spices! I am working on a new look for a craft room (on hold in December :) and I love those jars for decor and organization. Sad to miss seeing you over Thanksgiving! I'd love to see you soon though. I hope things are going ok with Sam, I was so sad to learn how hard it's been...Love you!
What a dream kitchen. I'm particularly dreamy for your kitchen as I live in a rental with orange tile, orangish cupboards, orange everywhere ahhh! But since it is a rental in England, I guess I can't complain too much...
I found your kitchen through someone's Pinterest Pin and wanted to take a moment to thank you for posting your images. Your kitchen is great, so fresh and modern, yet classic at the same time.
Enjoy!
Would you be so kind to tell us where you found such a fantastic table?
Would you be able to tell me what paint you used on your kitchen walls? You have inspired me to paint our hideous cabinets finally, and I want to use the same wall paint as well.
What a lovely kitchen! So much space!
Greetings from Germany (where everything is a little bit smaller =) )
Gorgeous kitchen! Love the spices, the floor, the chairs... Thanks for the inspiration!
Found this on Pinterest.
I'm a little bit jealous.
;)
I found this on Pinterest also - what a lovely space, you must be so thrilled!
Could you please tell me what your floors are? I love them? And your paint colours? Gorgeous!
LOVE your kitchen! Do you mind telling me what kind of counter tops those are? Thanks!
Care to share the name of the wall paint color?
Oh, I love it all! May I ask (random question here), where did you get the wicker basket 'panel' in the 2nd last picture please? Thanks so much!
Your kitchen is beautiful! I love your dining chairs.
Our styles aren't the same (I love that everyone's are different, as they should be) but I see many underlying similarities to my own kitchen. :)
