Look up !
You know - that place where normal people would place curtains?
I use it for storage !
Above the door
On the door
and on the sides of the door
That door doesn't get used much in the winter...........if at all.
It was only a matter of time because when I see a door I automatically see storage after all
It's not a designer kitchen - not by far - but someone came in last week and mentioned that it looked like the
happiest kitchen they'd ever seen. And that compliment came from a man ! He said it looked like the kitchen of someone who loved to cook.
I'll take that !
A happy kitchen is one of the nicest compliments I've ever gotten
I mean if I can't have a designer one - than that's the next best thing !
John - who hasn't banged into anything yet - and he's 6 foot 1 - says :
" maybe you should put a clearance sign like they put for tunnels on the road."
But that isn't the look I'm going for at all.................
( you can see the transformation of the kitchen here from the studs up :)
Much love,
Hugs too

Suzan - I agree with your visitor. It certainly does look happy. Your kitchen reminds me of a friend of mine's kitchen. I told her last time I was there that when entering it felt like you instantly got a big hug from the home.
ReplyDeleteI just wanted to tell you Suzan that you are becoming quite an inspiration to me. I ask myself..."What would Suzan do?" lol
ReplyDeleteWhy doesn't your potato bowl say "tatties"??? hahahahaha
ReplyDeleteClever you! And what a wonderful compliment you got!!
ReplyDeleteIt IS a happy kitchen, especially with that lovely yellow colander!
ReplyDeleteHappy Kitchen---lol, happy husband. Love all your goodies...and the design on the door is fab. Grins, Sandi
ReplyDeleteI LOVE YOUR KITCHEN!!! Sorry I'm yelling ha ha - I just went back to your reno post and oh boy, what a difference! It's gorgeous and so cozy and yes, most definitely happy!
ReplyDeleteLooks great, what are the white flowers on the glass?
ReplyDeleteI think it is a very HAPPY looking kitchen, Suzan, and I think that a high falootin' designer could not have done any better! I LOVE it, and on top of everything else, it is COZY!! Also, YOU ARE a DESIGNER for sure!(in more ways than one to deal with John--eh, Lucy?) Ha!
ReplyDeleteYou have the Midas Touch!I love the newfound storage too--great idea, and looks good too, and practical!
Love,
Laura/Hazel
Suzan, most most excellent storage ideas. :) LOVE the door. Maybe you need a different kind of sign... like... you must be this tall to offer opinions. :))) xoxo Christina in FL
ReplyDeleteWhat a nice compliment! I'm not sure that would happen to me, especially after eating my food!! Lol
ReplyDeleteBut I like the yellow triangular clearance sign and it would go with your colander!
