You all better put your sunglasses on - 'cause it is a lil' bright in here - but you know what, I can't keep from smilin'. I told ya I'd let you take a peek when I got finished with my country kitchen - well, I'm gonna share a few pics with you now. However, I'm still not finished. I'm gonna make some letters like I do to match - I already have the paper but not all the letters I need. I'm gonna repaint my ceiling white - I know you are probably saying "why did she paint it green to start with?" A lot of times I do paint the ceiling a lighter shade of the wall color but I didn't this time and honestly, it is the same shade and jus' a bit to intense for me. I need to distress my cabinets and paint my trim again - BUT other than those things - I'm good to go for a while. WHHHEEEEWWWWW!!! Hope you have fun looking - here we go!
My favorite color - RED - This is my lil' arrangement on top of the fridge.
My lil' country light hanging in front of one of the windows.
White ironstone pitchers - one of my favorite things. Now, don't you all laugh at my pie - I didn't beat my meringue long enough - but it still tasted yummmmmmmmy!
My woven rug I found at our wonderful local Antique Mall - did I mention it was only $10.00 and could the colors have been more perfect????? And Yes, Snowball has taken a likin' to it also.
Some of my cute lil' towels I found at Wally World.
This is my spoon rest - the piece that started the whole color scheme - and more importantly, I love what it says.
My storage baskets that I already had in another room.
This is my new "faux" tin back splash I put up today. I'd love to have this on the ceiling some day!!
As you can see, it is a teeny tiny lil' kitchen.
A very few cabinets...
Sorry this pic is a lil' dark but you can see what I mean when I say small.
That's all folks.
Well, I'm back to start on a few more projects - next - the laundry room. That is gonna be a real undertaking. What do you think for a color? - bright yellow, aqua, maybe everything white.... I just don't know yet. I'll just have to surprise you!!!
Have a great Tuesday my friends! I woke up to some snow this morning and I was tickled to death - maybe we will get some more tomorrow - hope so!!!
Happy Creating!
Cathy

That is one stylish kitchen....you have an eye for color and making it all work together. Do you mind sharing where you got your Faux tin backsplash? cherry
I luv your blog! Your kitchen is beautiful!!!! I like the tin backsplash and your spoon rest! CHEERS! Michele
Cathy, I LOVE your kitchen. Mine is red, yellow and black but not as neat and clean as yours. ha. Yours looks beautiful. Where did you get the light by the window? very pretty.
By the way, I think my kitchen might be smaller than yours.
Cant wait to see the laundry room!
So cute! I love, love it! It is so cozy and yummy! I could totally make myself at home in your kitchen:)!
It may be a tiny kitchen,but it is precious, I love it!
I want to use the tin backsplash in my kitchen, I had new cabinets and counters last March and I am still waiting to have my backsplash and I think I want to use the tin, is it hard to install?
Have a great day,
Martha

Your kitchen is lovely and inspiring...I am purchasing the same "faux" tin tiles for my backsplash and also told my husband that I wanted to put it on my ceiling...he isn't sold....so, was it as easy to install as they say?

I love it! My tween would go nuts for the walls, she loves that color :)
LOVE your kitchen. The double window of the sink is just the best! Wish I had one. I really like a smaller kitchen - if you have enough storage. Seems very cozy. The colors are great and I really like the chandalier ( can't spell it but you know what I mean) - the color goes great with the walls. And the tin look backsplash I envy. Great job. Can't wait to see the finished product.
Good things come in small packages and you just proved it. What fun - so crips and clean yet still so warm and inviting! I love it.
I adore your kitchen too. I even like the ceiling, it may grow on you. I looked at that back splash for my kitchen...I may go ahead now that I see how nice yours is...I'll switch you kitchens!!! Dianntha
Oh that is so sweet...I just love it. So many special touches!

That color is awesome I need to send you some pics of my kitchen for ideas! I love the backsplash. I have know where did you get the pottery? I love the red, I would like it in the green since my kitchens red.
I am getting ready to start redoing Kaden's nursery to big boy room and I got an idea from pottery barn I need to hollar at you for help.
It is a happy little kitchen Cathy! Thanks so much for sharing it with us! Green is my favorite color and all rooms need a splash of red!
Blessings,
Susie

I looooove that topiary painting on the door...did you do that? Oh, and I am nuts about the paint color....do you know what it is...Great job you've done. Blessings, Nancy
Love your kitchen...I have the same backsplash!
I love your kitchen all the little punches of color are great. Especially ♥ the refrigerator display and door topiary painting.
Just wanted you to know, your kitchen pics are now part of my "kitchen inspiration board". We are in the process of re-doing our entire house...one room at a time. We are starting with the main bathroom and then on to the kitchen. I've already started gathering bright things to sit on my shelves and your kitchen gave me the ideas to get rolling...so thanks! =)
Your kitchen is perfect! I love the painted cabinets and the peek at that painted door! The backsplash is great.
I LOVE the big shelf over your range. :)
